“Any escalation with Hezbollah would be far more significant than what we’ve seen with Israel and Hamas, and the U.S. would likely have to step in directly to defend Israel from Hezbollah’s robust rocket and missile arsenal,” said Michael DiMino, a former career CIA military analyst and counterterrorism officer.
“A major war between Hezbollah and Israel has been my greatest fear regarding a plausible scenario that could lead to a regional conflagration since day one of this conflict, and the U.S. and international community should do everything it can to prevent it. It would not benefit Israel, the United States, or global security writ large.”
