Isreal vs. Hizbollah, rd. 2,456

Story: "Israeli forces battled to take over a second Hizbollah stronghold in southern Lebanon on Tuesday in intensifying ground clashes with the guerrillas' frontier garrison, sources on both sides said.

Calling Bint Jbeil "one of the major Hizbollah centers", an Israeli military spokesman said tanks and troops had sealed off the town, killed or wounded dozens of guerrillas, and were engaged in sporadic firefights with the hold-outs.

"We are operating in the town. I can't say we are in total control of the town yet," the spokesman said."

I don't care what kind of weapons Hizbollah has from Iran, there is no way they can take on the IDF head on. They may be able to take away the political support back home with civillian strikes, but the IDF is in the process of compleatly wreaking their infrastructure, command chain, and recruitment centers.
