I can only imagine how paranoid Israel is feeling... it's like you're in a club a brawl is starting to break out around you. Not nice especially since Israel is the only sober one in the room.

Well, ther eis one benefit, and that is that Syria was the shadow int he background in Lrebanon, and with syria now being busy with itself, Iran, to which Syria is amcloose ally,m finds it a bit harder to smuggle weapons to Lebanon-staged terror-organisation Hezbollah, even more, Hezbollah is trying to find a new headquarter, since Lebanon wiothout Syrian backing no longer looks like a safe harbour for them.
If - and that is still a ver ybig "if" - Hezbollah would need to give up Lebanon, it loses a basis that in the past 5 years has been turned into a hardened bunker with plenty of underground shlters and lots of missiles stockpiles that are a primary headache for Israel. It would also weaken Iran's stand in the region. Remember, I said: "
if".
