#mossad Major media outlets, law enforcement agencies, and intelligence agencies worldwide are trying to figure out how the Israeli Mossad was able to pull off the attack with the pagers and walkie-talkies of Hezbollah. Let us go through several key points to consider as follows:
1) The Israelis had to have a human intelligence source or sources right inside Hezbollah who found out that there was going to be a big purchase made of pagers and walkie-talkies to replace cellular phones. This may have come up in May or June of this year.
2) These same human intelligence sources had to understand the Hezbollah bureaucracy. Who was the "decision factor" who signed the purchase order and authorized payment for the communications devices?
3) Next came the bid for the equipment. It had to have a very competitive price. It had to have a quick delivery date. The Budapest company making the offer had to have a track record and credibility.
4) After the offer was accepted, a letter of credit from a well-known and respected Lebanese bank had to be opened by Hezbollah. Payment would take place when the communications devices were delivered.
5) Now here is where it gets challenging for the Israelis. One school of thought claims that a company in Hungary run by a 49-year-old British woman with a Ph D from a major London university ordered all the equipment from vendors in Japan and Taiwan. When the equipment was delivered to the company in Budapest, lethal modifications were made right there. The second school of thought claims that the company in Budapest has a license from these Asian vendors to manufacture this equipment. They just manufactured the equipment with the lethal modifications built in.
6) The people at the Budapest company had to work 24 hours a day seven days a week to manufacture this quantity of equipment rapidly, do all the quality control work, and ensure that the equipment would raise no suspicion when it arrived in Lebanon. The stress must have been almost unimaginable.
7) There had to be the tightest security imaginable to ensure no hint of this plan leaked out. One careless text message, tweet, email, or phone call even with encryption could have alerted either Russian or Chinese signal intelligence resources that are excellent by the way. Iran would have been warned within nanoseconds.
8) No one working on the project opened their mouths and compromised the project.
In my whole life, I must say that this is the cleverest military operation that I have ever seen.
