I haven't bothered to watch much about these pager bombs, other than headlines. This weapon isn't anything new in war. The success suggests that it was highly organized. Looks successful to me. I'll read more, but from my perspective, fairly precise mission.
before it even made it into any history book, it was considered a success.
in fact, the bombing of dresden is actually pretty widely criticized in history books, even today. but at the time it occurred, the military considered it a success.

If it was fairly precise mission, I would think that you wouldn't see them exploding in supermarkets with people around.
Dresden was also considered a successful military op. just depends on the military, and their definition of "precise" and "success"
Yes. And who writes the history books.

Precise operations don't have hundreds of explosions going off in civilian areas.
