Hezbullah has the fighters with skills and tools, has the motivation, and has the will. As for the people, they are aching now, but will be soothed with a single success; this is what separates a good tree from one rotten at the core. A single factor that would also play in Hezbullah's favor is an Iranian ceasefire that includes Lebanon, and more importantly, Iran's survival. It will give Hezbullah the life it needs to overcome the challenges in Lebanon against the traitorous government. I explained in a different thread the impact of Syria. Hezbullah without Iran is no longer possible as an armed resistance, because non-state actors can only exist if the states supporting them do. Your role during this war is to ensure the population has the means to stay patient until the war objectives are achieved, and only with this war ending with true calm in south Lebanon can the risk of war be avoided in recent upcoming months and years again. Stability brings about stability. I do understand that Hezbullah's choice is not a popular one in Lebanon, especially for non-Shia locals, but this is a topic for another day. Hezbullah is the sole reason why Lebanon has not made peace with Israel; a stance the are being punished for now, but hopefully one day history will acknowledge as the true moral choice. This war will have highs and lows, but at the end of the day, Israel's objectives are not destined and Israel, like any other country or empire, will be have highs and lows too. This war might be what offsets the catastrophic and devastating repercussions of the 7-October war.
