Israel is in for a surprise when they enter Lebanon.

Regardless of communications being down, every Lebanese village in the South has hundreds of local garrison units and independently functioning cells.

If Israel couldn't win in 2006, they certainly cannot win in 2024, but the war will be more destructive than before. Both for Israel and Lebanon.

People need to understand that you cannot defeat an organization like Hezbollah, which is interwoven in the civilian population of the country. They have schools, hospitals, bakeries, factories, etc. and they will simply recruit new fighters when need arises.

@Middle_East_Spectator

The Lebanese government is now openly giving Hezbollah free play to respond, instead of asking it to calm tensions.

This is unprecedented. With the backing of the Lebanese government, Hezbollah will be emboldened to act much harder than before, when they tried to appease the government to at least some extent.
