Hezbollah is a resistant movement, secondly they didn't hide behind women and children during the 2006 war with Isreal, they fought face to face. I think you are confusing Hezbollah with Hamas or Isis.

Hezbollah had locations, they fought from a well known but fortified positions, they guided each Lebanese village bordering Isreal, while evacuating women and children to safer positions. Even before shooting rockets at Isreal they sent text to Israelis telling them to live their homes.

You just have to respect those guys, they were fearless, you can read more about them, even Isreali soldiers were marvelled at how those guys fought. 100 Hezbollah members might guide a village, you invading will think they are up to 1000 because of how well positioned they are.

Hezbollah were brave, even in current war in Syria, they are performing wonders, they single handedly defeated some rebels in 2017 or so.

...You have to look at things critically more to understand International politics ....US can never invade Iran for whatever reason. US is a world power but the presence of China and Russia always check there excesses...As far Russia is solidly behind Iran, then i am telling you US won't do anything....Russia and US always try not to confront each other directly ...Russia and China sees Iran strategically because of where Iran is located....The only thing Russia has to is to deploy there military presence around the Dead sea or strait of Homuz. US is significantly ahead in military strength than any other country but when China and Russia who are super powers are solidly behind you then US won't do much. Why can't US go close to North Korea is just because of China....and please US economically is not ready for any war...Iraq and Afghanistan taught them a great lesson, same reason George Bush became very unpopular in the later stages..America spent so much on wars, my bro it takes billions to fight a war and the American people don't need that now. Infact American policy is withdrawing most of there presence in the middleeast not starting new ones. The best US can do is to instigate uprising in Iran via CIA or use proxies to challenge Iranian government, that's far cheaper and safer...If Russia and China sees Iran as a vital interest to them US won't do much. The only thing meant to be done is to move a China Air carrier or Russia Submarine close to the Iranian waters then everybody will just calm down. Like I told you, these nations will do everything not to directly confront themselves but talk rheteorics...considering how unpopular Iraq war was why will US invade Iran. That is very foolish. War is not a child's play bro....guy I am reading your comments and you have good knowledge of International politics but you get it wrong in many places. The only reason US couldnt and can't depose Assad of Syria is because of Russia. Immediately After the Arab spring US had there way in Libya and some other countries but not Syria. Russia directly involved themselves in Syria because of there personal interest. This made US position so difficult against going strong on Syria. You said Russia has been quiet in Syria ever since until US left, how dare you say so. Russia is the reason Assad still controls more than half of the country if not US would have use the FSA and Kurds to take over the Gov.....Russia used chemical weapons but who are investigating them? The UN and the UN is basically weak and can't do anything to any world power. Infact the UN is basically the 5 veto powers. See the game changers in Iran issue...Russia, China and Turkey who is a NATO member making it very complex. US is very ahead militarily but you make them sound so much powerful seems you are obsess about them or something

OkpaNsukkaisBae:




Nope.. You're wrong. There was a reason the IDF were bombing the civilian infrastructure/population.
Secondly they didn't defeat Israel . before the war hezbollah was a state within a state.. Controlled southern Lebanon, but were later replaced by a Lebanese army and an International force. Is that how to win a war?

Even the Israeli soldier they killed/taken as prisoners were returned to Israel.. (Israel returned hezbollah prisoners/remains of dead soldiers)

How's that a military victory for hezbollah??

OBAGADAFFI:


Hezbollah is using Gorilla warfare, which common among most terrorist group like ISIS, BOKO-HARAM in Nigeria,Iraq and others

Hezbollah don't have specific country operation, so they can confront Israel in conventional Battle.

Efewestern:


Hezbollah wasn't a state within a state, it was/is a resistant movement, they are part of the Lebanese government, control 1/3 of the Senate seat I guess.

When Hezbollah kidnapped some Israeli soldiers, Israel became angry and vowed to crush Hezbollah within a month, so they carried out airstrikes in southern Lebanon, hoping that will force the Lebanese government to surrender Hezbollah to them, unknown to IDF, Hezbollah has dug a lot of deep tunnels and bunker where they kept most of their rockets and weapons.

After series of bombing, Hezbollah never stopped firing rockets into Isreal territory, meaning the airstrikes weren't effective, so Isreal Prime Minister approved a ground invasion to finally crush Hezbollah, they so underrated Hezbollah and thought Hezbollah were some kind of untrained Arab men with riffle. When they got to Lebanon Hezbollah smashed most of their trucks/tanks, they couldn't believe their eyes, on one occasion an infantry refused advancing forward because they fear Hezbollah will crush them (They were later detained).

In the battle of Bint Jbeil, Hezbollah surprised IDF with their doggedness, a few men guided the entire village. Till the war ended, Hezbollah never stopped fighting, and showed no signs of giving up, even Israeli medias were disappointed.



Hezbollah used Guerilla warfare during their first battle with Isreal, but quickly embraced a new doctrine, transforming itself from a predominantly guerrilla force into a formidable quasi-conventional fighting force.

They have specific territories, in fact IDF ground troops refused advancing towards Hezbollah controlled area. Israel lost most of her conventional war skills fighting unarmed women and kids in Palestine, that when they met a real force they couldn't deliver. While both parties claim victory, this will be the first time Isreal leaves a battle without achieving her aims or getting Hezbollah to do things according to their terms. Hezbollah destroyed the myth that they were undefeated.

That war alone brought a lot of Shame to IDF. you can download "We were caught unprepared" and read about the war.

OBAGADAFFI:


Hezbollah is still using Guerilla warfare till date.

Every time Hezbollah attack Israel they do it with CIVILIAN SHIELD , that is why IDF retaliation always result in more civilian casualties.


If Israel should go hard on Hezbollah, they will wipe off GAZA, and LEBANON .

Efewestern:


I bet you know more than American military experts, maybe you a are confusing Hezbollah with Hamas. In the 2006 battle Hezbollah fought IDF ground troops, how can they use civilian shield when IDF was unable to penetrate Hezbollah defense formation?, most battles happened in villageS with few people and empty fields. The only thing Hezbollah was accused of was stockpiling weapons in some homes, but they NEVER use civilian as shield in the 2006 war.

After the 2006 war, Hezbollah haven't clashed with IDF, and the few times rocket was fired into Isreal, Hezbollah denied being responsible. So far IDF has learnt their lessons and Hezbollah won't provoke any crisis. But HEZBOLLAH WON that war.

OBAGADAFFI:


HEZBOLLAH, sustained more casualties and damages than Israel in that war.

B4 the war there was over 3000 Lebanese prisoners of war in Israel prisons.Labanese government try all they can for Israel to release them but they refused.A month before the war,Hizbollah leader Hassan Nasarella made a promise in a rally to get the 3000 prisoners out of Israel prisons.A month later,he order the kidnapping of Israel soldiers.Isreal vows never to release a single one and decided to invade southern Lebanon.After trying unsuccessfully for over a month.They decided to negotiate and release the 3000 prisoners for their kidnapped soldiers.Now tell me among the two parties who achieved it objectives?As for people saying that Hezbollah use civilians as human shield.That is 100℅ false.Hizbollah fight like a real army,they are the largest non-state fighting force on earth.With more than 100000 rockets.They were able to close down all northern Israel for over a month and fight back ground forces send by Israel,over and over for a month.Even Israel accepted defeat.So i don't know what on earth is wrong with people in nairaland.Is as if they do not live in the real world.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:




Your opinion doesn't count

hermesprogidy:

Neither does yours.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:



Thanks for reminding me.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:




I will engage you but that will be when you start making use of paragraph.

Ibrahimmrfish:

Vietnam sustained more casualties than U.S during Vietnam war and yet they defeated the U.S.
Soviet Union sustained more casualties than Nazi Germany but yet they won the war.So what on earth are you talking about?

Nowenuse:


The Allies will only join the US, if the US is facing a threat to it's homeland territory cos that is when the US is really threatened, not when the US in engaging on troublesome warfare at others.

You guys forget that most EU countries are still in agreement with Iran on the Nuclear deal. Apart from Israel and perhaps Saudi Arabia/Arab world, don't expect any other country to join the US in invading Iran.

The EU have no interests in the invasion of Iran unlike they did in Syria.

OBAGADAFFI:


Lol, what is your definition of defeat.

Israel is still hitting all HEZBOLLAH strongholds till date, where is HEZBOLLAH?


On your Vietnam theory, you know little about the war.

It was just front US defence industry

Ibrahimmrfish:

Typical of your type.Since you have nothing of value to add,you turn to personal attack.This is a social network platform,not a grammar class.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:



I didn't insult you bro...
Just that when you write long notes like that. You try as much as possible to make it easier for your readers to comprehend by using paragraph.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:




Nope...
NATO is a defensive military Alliance. Once Iran makes the first move, try to fvck with USA. They will have France, Germany, UK, Canada among others to contend.
Even without the allies,, Iran is not a perfect match for the USA.

Seunnzy:

and with which facts can u back this absurd stuff?
hope u know that Palestine and Israel were together

OkpaNsukkaisBae:



Hezbollah also released captured Israeli forces, even the remains of dead soldiers.

Going by your logic ... D war ended as a stalemate because @ the end of the conflict all captured war prisoners were released on both sides.

lol funny u, USA n d rest of western states haven't touch Iran oil for over 40 years why? because Iran is placed on sanction.

the only states in a world that has build the most sophisticated warhead missile weapon is Russia n USA. but Russia is not economically strong, so we give it to USA.

the names of nuclear weapons u see flying on nairaland claim iran have is notting compare to what USA have.

Iran right now is just pained n bitter state. Iranian are cursing their leaders who forceful converted them to Muslim , they prefer their old culture, even d people of Iran are looking for means to revolt against their wicked Islamic leader.

Iran is decayed since there oil is smuggled for exchange of cheap nuclear weapons.it seems that all Iran has.

Trump is making noise. Any single shot fired at Tehran... Hezbollah will turn Tel-Aviv into a graveyard

Efewestern:


Who ever said Iran can defeat or confront US? can't you read and comprehend, or even read what everyone is saying here, Iran is no match to US, but US will find it extremely difficult to defeat Iran in their "Soil", Iran is not Iraq or Libya, but one of the major actor in the region, a force to reckon with, and you can't just say US will defeat them with a swift victory in their territory, even Americans won't agree with you on this, Iran has fought several battles in the past with no support from anywhere, yet they came out victorious, they won't sit down and watch you attack them, they will Fight, and the casualties on both sides will be very high. No country in her right mind will start a war with US, but if you invade any territory, regardless of how mighty you think you are, you will meet a great resistance, like the Vietnam War etc.

Invade and destroy Hezbollah , like they did in 2006 right? Isreal with her 30k troops were unable to defeat a rag tag men with just Ak7 and some few rockets, worst is they were not more than 2k, despite air superiority, sophisticated weapons, etc, they were chased out of labenon, that was in 2006 oh, now compare a conflict with both parties, now that Hezbollah has grown to become one of the world most strongest militia, even stronger than Lebanon military, Isreal isn't looking for any excuse to invade, Hezbollah dug a lot of tunnels last year, why didn't Isreal use that as an excuse to attack them like they always do to Hamas? I guess you know why.

Hezbollah destroyed the myth that Isreal can't be defeated in the 2006 war, in fact if not for them, Isreal would have annexed Some labenese territory. Read more and stop being ignorant.

Ibrahimmrfish:

Unfortunately for you if there is one thing that i know,is war.About Vietnam,the U.S evaluated their men in a hurry cause the vietcom broke U.S line and are advancing toward U.S position.It was a mass and disorganized retreat. Google is here not for just watching porn and music.As for Israel hitting Hezbollah strong hold,provide a like that show Israel attacking hezbollah inside Lebanese land without Hezbollah hitting Israel target inside Israel.Don't forget up to date,Hizbollah always deny there present in Syria so don't mention Syria here.Mention just one attack in Lebanon,without their response.
