#1 today's Hezbollah is fundamentally different from the one that fought Israel for 34-days during the summer of 2006

More importantly, today's Israel is fundamentally different from the one that let ~~savages & degenerates~~ World Community dictate its actions for 60 years.

#2 The Hezbys took out 29 of the world's best battle tanks during the 2008 intervention. IEDs have escalated the conflict. The next conflict won't be so dainty.

#4 Hezbollah may well attack Israel if their last supporter after Syria fails is attacked. They would be responsible for answering what all the funds and arms were for if not for this particular case. On the other hand, commentors talking about 40,000 missiles swamping Israel's ability to defend itself is just wishful thinking from the Hezbo wing. Israel tries to prevent civilian casualties and if that factor is removed due to a massive rain of missiles then all bets are off on how long the last Hesbo lives. Swarming UAVs, day and night, will make life unbearable for any launch site capable of hitting Israel and if that's in northern Lebanon then the entire Lebanese population will get to watch this one. NEVER again!
