Hezbollah Becomes Strategic Threat; Rockets Can Strike Tel Aviv

Excerpts;

Sunday’s rocket strike at a military base near Tzefat was the deepest a rocket fired from southern Lebanon has ever penetrated Israel.

The attack, which Vice Prime Minister Shimon Peres termed “coincidental,” may have been a deliberate effort by Hezbollah to showcase its new strategic weapons.

Those weapons … are now able to strike virtually everywhere in Israel from the Galilee to the northern Negev.

With such range, a border skirmish with Hezbollah could potentially prompt an attack on Tel Aviv, or any location in Israel’s densely populated, industrial heartland.

Dr. David Buk’ai, a professor at Haifa University, said the potential for the Hezbollah to use the missiles effectively increases the need for the IDF to retaliate more harshly against minor Hezbollah provocations, in order to preserve the balance of deterrence.

Buk’ai explained that up until Sunday’s incident, the IDF responded to border skirmishes by aiming at empty facilities, minimizing damage and casualties, with the goal of precluding an escalation of the conflict.

In contrast, Sunday’s response left Hezbollah with 15 dead and heavy damage to a number of military installations.
