Hezbollah

Hezbollah appears in Missing Peace: Will Israel Imperil Iran Deal? as the armed movement whose capacity in southern Lebanon makes a Lebanon ceasefire clause difficult to trust. The episode says Israel argues that Hezbollah retains serious military capacity and that the Lebanese government cannot currently disarm it.

The source also cites an Israeli display of a large tunnel allegedly used to assemble attack drones. In the episode’s logic, Hezbollah matters less as a stand-alone topic than as the unresolved armed actor that can turn U.S.-Iran Nuclear Diplomacy into a Proxy Conflict Spoiler Risk case.
