I love it. Apparently lots of airlines and airports in that region doing the same.

DALLAS — According to Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA), Lebanese authorities have banned pagers and walkie-talkies on all flights to and from Beirut.
The ban, enforced by Beirut Rafic Hariri International Airport (BEY), prohibits passengers from carrying pagers and walkie-talkies in any form of luggage or cargo.
This decision comes in the wake of an incident involving Hezbollah militants, where hand-held devices were detonated across the country in the Levant region of West Asia.
The head of Lebanon's civil aviation authority, Faid El Hassan, confirmed the restriction, which is part of enhanced security measures. Hezbollah has reportedly used pagers for secure communication, fearing their smartphones could be compromised by Israeli surveillance.
Qatar Airways (QR) has also announced a similar restriction for all flights departing from Beirut. This measure aligns with the Lebanese Directorate General of Civil Aviation's directive and applies to checked baggage, carry-on luggage, and cargo, effective until further notice.

It is all Israel's fault for their electronic bombs used for terrorism.
Are smart phones next? Maybe I should put a little C4 in your phone.
Remember that movie Runaway with Gene Simmons playing the terrorist? I especially liked the drone that could speed underneath cars and explode. Maybe someone is making one for Kamala as we speak. After all, she was never elected. She is a threat to democracy. It would be like taking out Hitler. Right?
@Metal-Brain saidThe terrorists are in confusion.

You are on the side of evil.
@Rajk999 saidIsrael is using terrorism to fight terrorism. How do you determine which side is evil? There are no good guys in this war.
The terrorists are in confusion.
You are on the side of evil.
Have you finally given up on trying to pinpoint who started the terrorism?
It isn't easy to do, is it?
@Metal-Brain saidNever said I was interested in finding out who started it. One side are the losers... that's your side.

@Metal-Brain saidThere is no war. Hamas put up no resistance and is almost dead and Gaza is rubble. Hexbollah is a mass of confusion. They fire dummy rockets into Israel and 99% of them hit no targets. They are another bunch of lame stupid Arabs who cannot even be efficient terrorists.
Nobody lost. The war is ongoing.
Those aircraft carriers my government had there to protect Israel.....not there anymore. Sorry about your luck.
Your nonsense about the US aircraft-carriers, brings out your true colours. You are a liar and a very stupid man. The US is simply removing the USS Theodore Roosevelt which has been on duty for almost a year and replacing it with the USS Abraham Lincoln. Both are nimitz-class carriers of similar capabilities.
Also they are not there to protect Israel. Iran does not have the ability to go to war with Israel and if they do something stupid Israel will use nuclear weapons on them. The US is there to stop the war from escalating into a nuclear battle, which Israel will certainly win because none of those Arab jokers have nuclear bombs. So you should be happy the US staying there.
@Metal-Brain saidIsrael is using their superior capabilities to fight terrorists. Some innocent people will die ... so what? Do these terrorists and their families care when Jewish civilians die?

@Rajk999 saidIf there is no war then Israel can stop bombing. Your statements are becoming increasingly stupid. You are hoisting yourself by your own petard.

Israel would be weak and pathetic without the USA subsidizing their military.
Why does Israel have universal healthcare while my government denies it to Americans? Shouldn't they be giving money to us?
@Metal-Brain saidAsk your politicians.

@Metal-Brain saidA war happens between two parties.
If there is no war then Israel can stop bombing. Your statements are becoming increasingly stupid. You are hoisting yourself by your own petard.
In this case only one party doing anything.
The other is hiding and running.
