A new war involving Israel would surely also involve Lebanese Hezbollah.Â- There is no indication that Hezbollah seeks such a war.Â- The group has incurred significant costs by participating in fighting within Syria and has many wounds to lick.Â- Its leaders still have regrets about the brinksmanship that last got Hezbollah entangled in a war with Israel.Â- Even though it could get in some hits with cross-border rocket fire, the group’s leaders know that in a new clash it would get badly bloodied by its militarily more capable foe.
