    So had someone not liked the pager, and given it away to a family member or friend, that person would have suffered the explosion.

    Sounds like a terrorist war crime to me!

      The pagers are not gifts handed out to employees on Eid. These were the backbone of a secure communications infrastructure for Hezbollah’s combatants. If you just give it away to someone, your superior won’t be amused if you don’t react to the pager anymore.
