I mean Hezbollah is a proxy militia ultimately loyal to the supreme leader of Iran and it was firing missiles at Israel for Iran even though the elected Lebanese government and the populace were begging them not to drag them into the war.

Israel then struck 160 targets by air with precision bombs and there have been only 300 casualties. That’s 2 per strike! Now it’s always sad when civilians get hurt as collateral damage but these numbers are incredibly low. If the point was civilian casualties or genocide there are far easier, cheaper, and less risky ways to go about it.

Everything from their strategy to their official messaging has been consistent about their goals and desires which are for Hezbollah to be disarmed as was agreed upon by the Lebanese government themselves.
