Hezbollah Surprised at Israel’s Show of Force

I love this. Says Mahmoud Komati, deputy chief of Hezbollah’s political arm :
“The truth is — let me say this clearly — we didn’t even expect (this) response…. that (Israel) would exploit this operation for this big war against us”.
He said Hezbollah had expected “the usual, limited response” from Israel to the July 12 cross-border raid, in which three Israelis were killed.
Isreal has treated those trying to kill them with kid gloves for so long that they seem to have forgotten consequences could exist in the first place. I’m glad Isreal is finally reminding them.
