Two Mossad agents who planned the pager attack in Beirut gave an interview on Monday to the American network CBS. According to the agents, the bombs were made in Israel by the Mossad, and the pagers were directly sold by Israel to Hezbollah through front companies. Hezbollah reportedly purchased over 16,000 pagers at “a good price,” according to the agents. The Mossad allegedly advertised the pagers on YouTube, promoting them as waterproof, dust-resistant and with long-lasting batteries. The Taiwanese company that sold the pagers to Hezbollah was unaware that they were working with the Mossad.
“The goal wasn’t to kill terrorists. If they die, it’s over. But if they’re injured, you have to take them to the hospital, treat them. You have to invest money and effort,” explained one of the agents. “And these people without hands and eyes are a living message: ‘Don’t mess with us.’ They are walking proof of our superiority throughout the Middle East.”
The agents also stated that other similar operations are currently being prepared.
