I don't understand that interpretation. The original comment was:

Israel could have taken out entire hospital staffs with this “technique”. Hope they remain human and don’t.

To which macarthur_park replied:

Seems unlikely considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.

They do not think it's likely that hospital staff, Hezbollah affiliated or not, could be in danger. I challenged that. I don't think they were aware that Hezbollah had a civilian wing at all, and that many public sector workers are technically "Hezbollah-affiliated" due to the nature of the political situation there.

No one has suggested that in this comment chain.

Good, then we should all agree that this was a despicable attack on Israel's part and this whole conversation is pointless.
