    “Yup, and it seems like more and more that it wasn’t explosives, but regular pagers tampered with to explode using parts they already contain as to not arouse suspicion.”

    There’s no way this can be the case. Regular pager batteries do not explode. At most they can catch fire, but they don’t explode. There’s no way there wasn’t a high-grade explosive in each of the pages. The electronics may have been normal and triggered with regular software, but there had to be an explosive and a detonator in the pager.
