Iran backed Hezbollah Islamists released their strike on Israeli navy corvette in 2006 today

.
I see , so what was exactly was Hezbollah goal ? to fire rockets at innocent civilians ?

~
Hezbollah’s goal was to prevent Israel from achieving its goals.
Targeting of Israeli civilians was one of the means to achieve said goal.

Please back up your claim with sources , seems your source is " cause you I say so " ...
Sorry but ignorance is not source.

According to Lebanese sources and UN sources Hezbollah lost 500 man , Israelis lost 124 soldier.
Ratio of about 5 dead Hezbollah for every Israeli soldier :

you want to call it victory ? I wonder what would you call defeat ? 20 to 1 causalities ? 30 to 1 causalities ?

"Perhaps the most telling sign of Israel’s military failure comes in counting the dead and wounded. Israel now claims that it killed about 400-500 Hezbollah fighters, while its own losses were significantly less. But a more precise accounting shows that Israeli and Hezbollah casualties were nearly even. It is impossible for Shi’ites (and Hezbollah) not to allow an honorable burial for its martyrs, so in this case it is simply a matter of counting funerals. Fewer than 180 funerals have been held for Hezbollah fighters–nearly equal to the number killed on the Israeli side. That number may be revised upward: our most recent information from Lebanon says the number of Shi’ite martyr funerals in the south can now be precisely tabulated at 184.

But by any accounting–whether in rockets, armored vehicles or numbers of dead and wounded–Hezbollah’s fight against Israel must be accorded a decisive military and political victory. Even if it were otherwise (and it is clearly not), the full impact of Hezbollah’s war with Israel over a period of 34 days in July and August has caused a political earthquake in the region.

Hezbollah’s military defeat of Israel was decisive, but its political defeat of the United States–which unquestioningly sided with Israel during the conflict and refused to bring it to an end–was catastrophic and has had a lasting impact on US prestige in the region."

That pretty much sums it up.

Israel Goal was to stop Hezbollah from firing rockets on civilians . What again was Hezbollah’s goal ?

Nothing special ,the goal was preventing Israel from entering lebanon like the previous war. And guess the number of civillian/fighter casualties are a good estimation on who attacked civilian .

C802 has active warhead so there is no problem to inegrate it.


All Arabs vs all Jews.
And you still insist on Noor while all evidence point to Kowsar. And for that the missile must have luck after fire capabilities n I don't think kowsar have such capabilities.

Hezbollah has two goals:
1) "Liberate" so called Shaba farms.
2) "Liberate" Jerusalem.

Both failed miserably.

Israel goal was destruction of Hezbollah . you can go back and read what your political and military leaders said at the time.

Liberating jeursaslem was never the goal .

Keep your garbage to yourself kalb. That had nothing to do with Saudis.


They're fvckn terrorists you fvckng motherfvcker. They kill other Muslims and pledge to kill and destroy Arab Muslim nations. They kill their own people to intimidate them like the terrorist groups in your country that kill activists/journalists who speak bad about them. Hezbollah didn't want to speak against Arabs but every time Iran threatens to withdraw funding from them if they don't. Iran has become a piece of shit terrorist country which wants to direct all tensions against Arab Muslims because they want to take revenge for Hussein and Muslims defensive war against Persia.
You're an ignorant and sectarian stooge

Two analysts and authority on Middle Eastern Affairs put together that report. It wasn't an opinion but an article based on facts. And while Israel deployed all elements of its military, including reservists, Hezbollah only deployed its Nasr Brigade.

I think you're just arguing for the sake of arguments.

Here are details of the two authors of that article:

1. "Alastair Crooke CMG, sometimes erroneously referred to as Alistair Crooke, (born 1950) is a British diplomat, the founder and director of the Conflicts Forum, an organisation that advocates for engagement between political Islam and the West.[1] Previously he was a ranking figure in both British intelligence (MI6) and European Union diplomacy.[2]

Crooke was a Middle East advisor to Javier Solana, High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy of the European Union (CFSP) from 1997 to 2003,[3] facilitated a number of de-escalations of violence and military withdrawals in the Palestinian Territories with Islamist movements from 2000 to 2003 and was involved in the diplomatic efforts in the Siege of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem.[2][4] He was a member of the Mitchell Committee into the causes of the Second Intifada in 2000.[2][4] He held clandestine meetings with the Hamas leadership in June 2002. He is an active advocate of engagement with Hamas to whom he referred as "Resistants or Resistance Fighters".

Crooke studied at the University of St Andrews (1968–1972), from which he obtained an MA in Politics and Economics. His book Resistance: The Essence of the Islamist Revolution, provides background on what he calls the "Islamist Revolution" in the Middle East, helping to offer strategic insights into the origins and logic of Islamist groups which have adopted military resistance as a tactic, including Hamas and Hizbollah. Tracing the essence of the Islamist Revolution from its origins in Egypt, through Najaf, Lebanon, Iran and the Iranian Revolution up to the present day, unlocking some of the thorniest issues surrounding stability in the current Middle East landscape.

2. "Mark Perry (born 1950) is an American author specializing in military, intelligence, and foreign affairs analysis.

IDF said it was C802.
Nasrallah was sure that he sank corvette.
Hezbies sank Egyptian cargo ship by mistake with similar missile.

Israel goal was destruction of Hezbollah . you can go back and read what your political and military leaders said at the time.
No. No one said it. Hezbollah are just Khamenai mercenaries. Even if we kill every single Hezbie, Iran will hire more with their billions. Not a big deal.

Liberating jeursaslem was never the goal .
LOL wut?

No, evidence says it was C802. It just failed against Israeli corvette. On the other hand it did manage to sank Egyptian cargo ship.
