[DESERT FIGHTER]

Dude dont start a troll fest. They are proven warriors

It an insult to other nations... to call them the best.

Yes it might hurt the sentiments of other races and nationalities

But if i compare them to other forces they are the best to me.

israel along with full sport of america was stopped by hizbullah upto 33 days and this things end s at cease fire no teriterial gain or any thing special was gained by israel what do you say about this

Hezbollah was compelled to retreat from the border and its men and installations were replaced by those of the regular Lebanese Army and the U.N. Clause 15 of UNSC 1701 authorized overflights and use of force by ships and aircraft to prevent Hezbollah resupply - without the consent of the Lebanese government.

So you are wrong on two counts: Hezbollah gave up territory and Israel gained the right to overfly Lebanon as long as Hezbollah remains armed.

You are confused because Israel wasn't interested in conquering Lebanon at all or even destroying Hezbollah but neutralizing it's lawlessness and offensive power at the border.

Hezbollah has turned its attentions to terrorizing Arabs instead, taking over Beirut in 2008, dominating the Lebanese government under threat of force, deploying its fighters as its Iranian masters demand - to oppose the Syrian people and prop up the tyrannical Assad regime, by some accounts: link

It's Hezbollah who attacked Israel. Israel only retaliated. And Israel wont hesitate to retaliate again. In 2006 war ratio was 4 killed Hezbollah per Israeli soldier, in next war will be 10 Hezbollah per Israeli soldier. Hezbollah knows it, thats why they are silent since 2006 war.

In wars of unequals, this is bound to happen. What it really comes down to is who is willing to sacrifice more for their stand.

I have read many perspectives while reading through the posts, while everybody may have his views on Hizbullah, but lets not take it away from them that they have done relatively very well against IDF as compared to other resistance movements in the region. While some of the Israeli and American members can always argue that hizbullah is overhyped, the fact remains that being a militia, it has virtually performed the role which even Lebanese Armed forced would not have done practically.While Israel has had the advantage in Air Supremacy, Armour, Better equipment and technology on its side, Hizbullah has used its lone advantage, surprise and art of warfare to turn things up favorably in its court. Merely being a militia is not enough, what sets a distinction is that the militias like Hizbullah, Talibans, Alquida and LTTE have a whole system of supply from community, training and infrastructure which effectively makes them just like armies in themselves . Moreover, militias are sometimes better driven by armies as the soldiers of militia are not merely serving with the sense of duty and payroll check, these militants are rigid followers of their ideology (as opposed to "national defence" doctrine of armies) so stronger the supporting evidence for their ideology, more dangerous the militia become.
here is a video of Hizbullah training....apparently its very much based on professional military training program

Lol gurkhas again.. how?by beheading an injured taliban?

You need to read more about our lot before ranting nonsense.

 

[Vinod2070]

I quit reading after that crap!!!

Anyone seen the said video?

Apparently they also did some circus stunts after getting half of Lebanon destroyed due to their insistence on firing the rockets.

For some reason, one never reads about the rockets after the war they supposedly won though!

Militia are better than regular armed forces when facing a superior invading army. That does not make them
better fighters, just harder to detect and root out.

Not necessarily, unless they are effective, organized, well trained and been able to play to their strenghts

That does not make them better fighters, just harder to detect and root out.

Thats what i exactly said, Hizbullah capitalized on their asset of Surprise and terrain to better the IDF, any army or militia who is able to dictate the conflict to proceed by their rule, is an effective force.

They popped 50+ Merkavas and killed more than 100 in a month. There was also that ship. Think what you want, but the results speak for themselves. They're probably better trained then most soldiers in the surrounding arab countries (UAE etc...).

They did all that without having an airforce, a navy or any armoured vehicles. Israel boasts that they killed 500 Hezbollah members. Woopdeefuckingdoooooo You only managed to take out 500 with all that advantage.

Have you got nothing better to do in your life except bashing Arabs??

Best Army.....Impossible...
Most well trained militants......possible.....

Being the world's best army takes more than bike tricks, if that was the criteria, we would have enlisted Evel Knievel !
Being the world's military takes training in conventional warfare(which Hezb lacks), experienced generals capable of mounting well coordinated attacks simultaneously, a strong intel network that can anticipate the enemy's move before they even think about making it, a steady supply of recruits, a hefty supply of ammo, among others.....
Hezb lacks all this, their style of fighting is limited to Guerilla warfare only, which can get you casualties and act like a nuisance for the enemy but it can NEVER win a war......Exception is Vietnam........

Hezbollah specializes in fighting wars through uncoventional means. This approach increases its chances of survival and effectiveness in a conflict. However, Hezbollah soldiers can be highly trained just like those of any professional army. They may also know how to use a variety of conventional weapons. Hezbollah actually compensates for weak conventional military capabilities of Lebanon to some extent.

However, I agree that this approach is not sufficient to defeat a professional military force. This approach is good for keeping pressure on a professional military force only. Otherwise, USA would have been driven out of Iraq and Afghanistan long ago.

Also, Vietnam is not an exception in this sence. Vietnamese resistance forces were heavily armed by conventional weapons provided by China and Russia but they also used unconventional methods to achieve their objectives where necessary. Vietnamese territory also help such forces a lot.

Hezbollah countered IDF armor through the use of sophisticated Russian-made anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs). According to Merkava tank program administration, 52 Merkava main battle tanks were damaged (45 of them by different kinds of ATGM), missiles penetrated 22 tanks, but only 5 tanks were destroyed, one of them by an improvised explosive device (IED). The Merkava tanks that were penetrated were predominantly Mark II and Mark III models, but five Mark IV tanks were also penetrated. All but two of these tanks were rebuilt and returned to service.
