Oh My!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" title=\"pager-explosion-768x439.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/pager-explosion-768x439-1.jpg\" alt=\"Pager explosion 768x439.\" width=\"299\" height=\"171\" border=\"0\" \/>When I first saw some of the snippets of news talking about exploding pagers, I thought it was yet another hoax from Hezbollah or Hamas, or any of a number of the other savage organizations operating in the Middle East. I thought they were trying yet again to blame Israel for their own screw up.<\/p>\n<p>You know, kind of like when the morons in Gaza blew up their own hospital with malfunctioning rockets aimed at Israel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When it was apparent that the story was real, I thought it was brilliant. If members of these terrorist organizations weren\u2019t outright killed, at least they were too maimed to be interested in hurting other people.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then I thought, &#8220;Hmm, If their pagers were in their front pockets, even if they survived, they weren\u2019t going to be able to reproduce or rape anyone anymore,&#8221; and I counted that as a definite win.<\/p>\n<p>Whoever thought of this in the IDF deserves a freaking medal! When we had troops in Afghanistan, I was always a big believer that we should\u2019ve randomly made every cellphone in the country ring just to blow up the IEDs. People always asked, \u201cWhat about the collateral damage to innocents?\u201d My answer was always how innocent is someone with IEDs being built in the basement?<\/p>\n<p>I know I sound harsh. But these people have, after decades of bullshit, devalued themselves with me to the point of being nothing more than crudely drawn characters in a video game. I no longer see them as human. They\u2019re liars, untrustworthy, despicable, things. They\u2019re crash test dummies now. It\u2019s not hate, it\u2019s complete unconcern and distain. They\u2019ve become the characters in the video game that you shoot in the head to see how many different patterns of blood spatter the game developers programmed into the game.<\/p>\n<p>I hate that we\u2019re still sending money to the Middle East. I\u2019m for letting them wallow in the cesspool of their own making and think they should either prove to the rest of the world that they\u2019re worth something or be allowed to devolve into nothing.<\/p>\n<p>I do find it ironic that a people who want to drag the entire world back to the 5th century are being hurt by 20th and 21st century technology. Perhaps if they walked their own talk, Allah wouldn\u2019t have allowed them to be punished with exploding technology.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Maybe that\u2019s the lesson we should be teaching them. Stone Age people have no business messing with Western magical juju.<\/p>\n<p>They should stop using cars, planes, busses, phones, computers, electricity, medicine, &amp; indoor plumbing. Perhaps they should return to their old ways as bands of tribesmen tending their flocks. We could facilitate that by making various modern devices explode randomly. Aversion therapy I think it\u2019s called. Make it so they can\u2019t trust any technology so they stay away from it altogether.<\/p>\n<p>It would solve a bunch of problems for them, and the rest of the world.<\/p>\n<p>To fight crime, I honestly wonder if building every single item with a bomb in it would be a great idea.<\/p>\n<p>If the item is stolen, it detonates when it\u2019s reported as stolen. That would shut down the crime in this county and it would only take a few years.<\/p>\n<p>I think it was RoboCop that introduced the idea that car thieves got fried inside the car they were trying to steal. That\u2019s always been an image I liked when it came to thieving of any kind.<\/p>\n<p>If technology were to be expanded to include GPS Coordinates so that the devices themselves knew where they were and then exploded if they were delivered to specific areas of the world, I\u2019ll bet you could eliminate rockets and mortars being stored in schools, hospitals, mosques, and UN facilities in Gaza or Lebanon.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll admit, low yield explosives blowing Hezbollah\u2019s balls off just tickles the hell out of me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first saw some of the snippets of news talking about exploding pagers, I thought it was yet another hoax from Hezbollah or Hamas, or any of a number of the other savage organizations operating in the Middle East.
