Lavan affair Satmir rebi Kahanist Falanges?

“Israel went to war with Lebanon in 2006 and got spanked” Wikipedia The results of the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah War are listen as “inconclusive” on Wikipedia Was the war against Lebanon or Hezbollah? Seems like a significant difference Precipitated by the 2006 Hezbollah cross-border raid, where they attacked a town as a diversion for an attack on Humvees patrolling the border Hezbollah captured Israeli soldiers and demanded the release of Lebanese prisoners Israel attacked Hezbollah military and Lebanese civilian infrastructure - including Beirut’s Rafic Hariri International Airport - Is this a “Hamas operates out of hospitals” situation again? Israel got spanked? ~1200 Lebanese people died vs 165 Israelis, and twice the Lebanese were displaced than Israelis. Obviously a factor’s gonna be that the attack occurred on Lebanese territory, so that explains the displacement, but not the war itself After the UN stepped in to mediate, they were to disarm Hezbollah, but that didn’t happen “Hezbollah claimed the war was a “Divine Victory”, while Israel considered the war a failure and a missed opportunity.”
