John Fetterman an unusual present Wednesday: a silver-plated beeper.
What, might you ask, would the Democrat Pennsylvania senator want or need with a beeper? Well, it’s not exactly for use, it’s intended as a symbol for the spy movie-worthy offensive taken by the Israeli government where they fooled Hezbollah terrorists into using pagers to communicate—without them knowing that they were actually manufactured by their sworn enemies and were rigged to explode.
Which they did, to spectacular effect.
Fetterman, who’s been one of the few Democrats to staunchly support the Jewish state as they battle the barbaric evils of Hamas and Hezbollah, was thrilled: //
Israel gained an enormous amount of prestige in their battle with Hamas and Hezbollah with last year's loaded pager/walkie-talkie operation, which had the goblins looking at their personal electronics and seeing grenades. Israel managed to remove a fair number of goblins from the game with this complex and impeccably executed operation, and on his visit to the White House on Tuesday [February] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gifted President Trump with a gold-plated pager to commemorate the event. (This pager was not built to explode.)
That, folks, is how you count coup in the modern era.
