Hezbollah Leader Speaks While Israeli Fighter Jets Cause Sonic Booms Over Lebanon
This wasn't a coincidence. While Nasrallah was speaking about the blow they received from exploding pagers and promising revenge to Israel for this epic attack, Israel sent fighter jets to fly over Beirut, Lebanon and make sonic booms, rattling everyone's windows.
Talk about giving someone the middle finger!!
BEIRUT/JERUSALEM, Sept 19 (Reuters) - Deadly Israeli attacks that blew up Hezbollah radios and pagers crossed all red lines, the leader of the heavily armed Iran-backed Lebanese movement said on Thursday, in a speech broadcast as sonic booms from Israeli warplanes shook buildings in Beirut.
Lebanon and Hezbollah have blamed Israel for attacks on Hezbollah's communications equipment that killed 37 people and wounded around 3,000, overwhelming Lebanese hospitals and wreaking bloody havoc on the militant group.
Israel has not directly commented on the attacks, which security sources say were probably carried out by its Mossad spy agency, which has a long history of carrying out sophisticated attacks on foreign soil.
"There is no doubt that we have been subjected to a major security and military blow that is unprecedented in the history of the resistance and unprecedented in the history of Lebanon," Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said in his TV address, filmed at an undisclosed location.
"This type of killing, targeting and crime may be unprecedented in the world," he said, appearing in front of a featureless red background in his customary black turban.
The attacks "crossed all red lines", he said. "The enemy went beyond all controls, laws and morals," he said, adding the attacks "could be considered war crimes or a declaration of war."
As the broadcast was aired, deafening sonic booms from Israeli warplanes shook Beirut, a sound that has become common in recent months but has taken on a greater significance as the threat of all-out war has steadily ramped up. Israel said its warplanes struck southern Lebanon overnight. Hezbollah reported that airstrikes resumed in the border area in the afternoon.

If I was a Hezbollah leader I would be quaking in my turban! They have to know that Israel can wipe them off this earth anytime and anywhere! They're probably scared to turn on their TV or heat up a muffin in their microwave! "What might blow up next?!? Those blasted Jews!!!"
