Amos Yadlin - Israel Today:
"Hezbollah's missile program is the biggest threat to Israel. The gov't must discuss this as soon as possible, and draw up a plan to attack it, because it has approached a critical mass, even though the northern front has 15 years of calm."
"Although we are facing mutual deterrence, Israel is still afraid to operate in Lebanon. The possibility of a large-scale war is not big, but it must be taken into account. Since the 1973 war, all the wars we have fought have always been on one front."
"Today there is an axis led by Iran, who may try to bring all the components together, and we need to prepare for this most dangerous scenario."

Unified lists with Hezbullah?
In 2018, Hezbullah asked its voters in several villages and cities to direct their votes to Amal, FPM, and smaller candidates in Sidon city and Mount Lebanon. In Beirut, after Hezbullah ensured that its candidate Sherri got a lot of support, it called to vote for Khawaja, a candidate for Amal in Beirut. In south Lebanon, several villages were asked to direct their votes to Ali Hassan Khalil, etc.
I'm trying to compile a brief list. If you know any name or details, please comment below.
