Looks like a slight leadership vacuum here:

Proof that missiles are stored in civilian houses... and pretty cool to see.

I was in a Hezbollah tunnel – this is what awaits Israel

 

[...] It was May 2020 when I toured the tunnel with an Israeli army commander, a time when a full-scale Israeli invasion of Lebanon was only a vague possibility.

 

But with a possible ground invasion looming, the tunnel offers just a glimpse of the type of enclosed, difficult territory Israeli troops will be facing.  It is also just one component of Hezbollah's vast arsenal, which also includes huge quantities of precision Iranian missiles smuggled into Lebanon via Syria.

Col Roi Yosef Levy, then Israel's Northern Border brigade commander for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), said as he showed me around the tunnel, "[It took] 14 years to build and only a few people inside Hezbollah knew about it."

Had the tunnel not been discovered, Israel suspects it would have been used to launch a surprise assault on the north, perhaps to capture hostages and then take them back to Lebanon.

Hezbollah's tunnel network is now feared to have grown even more vast and sophisticated in the four years since its discovery, posing a challenge for Israel should it opt for a ground invasion of southern Lebanon.

Israel estimates that the tunnel network, which can be used for hiding shock troops for attacks or moving supplies, stretches for hundreds of kilometres.  [...]

Did Israel Get Nasrallah?  UPDATE: 'Communication Lost' Says Reuters Source

 

Let's put it this way: no one's heard from the head of Hezbollah since the IDF struck its headquarters in Beirut a few hours ago.  When the air strike took place, Israel took care to note that they had no confirmation that Hassan Nasrallah got killed in the attack.

 

Since then, though, silence has spoken volumes.  If Nasrallah had survived, and especially if he hadn't been at their Dahiyeh underground complex, he surely would have gotten word out shortly after the attack.

Lebanese media started off reporting that Nasrallah survived and that a statement would get issued shortly.  That has changed, however:  [...]

Exploding Restaurant Buzzer Takes Out Hezbollah Party Of 6

 

BEIRUT — The carnage of surprise attacks on the terrorist organization in recent weeks continued in downtown Beirut today, as a party of six Hezbollah members was suddenly taken out by an apparent exploding restaurant buzzer.

The group of terrorists had reportedly taken a break from plotting the deaths of innocent civilians to grab dinner at the Cheesecake Factory, where they requested a table before being given a remote buzzer.  Moments later, witnesses reported an explosion.

"Ahmed!  Party of six!" the hostess shouted immediately following the explosion, apparently not noticing the remains of the Hezbollah members strewn throughout the restaurant's foyer.  "Ahmed?  Party of six?"  [...]

if the IDF got one or more thermobaric munitions into the tunnels, then that is huge. In such confined spaces, the effects would be devastating and reach far beyond what a conventional warhead could accomplish. 💀

 

So far, it seems the IDF is fighting a really smart war against Hezbollah.

one post edited as the original post sounded like it was talking about cartoon weapons, which made the entire post laughable.
and the member asked nicely.

This article gives interesting background, unknown to most, about the dead terrorist and political blunders by the U.S. -- worth reading!

Killing Nasrallah:  Israel shows America how to win wars

 

[...] securing a nation's peace has nothing to do with winning narratives, or nation-building, or balancing U.S. allies against your mutual enemies for the sake of regional equilibrium, or any of the other academic theories generated to mask a generation's worth of failure.  Rather, it means killing your enemies, above all those who advocate and embody the causes that inspire others to exhaust their murderous energies against you.  Thus, killing Nasrallah was essential.  [...]

To be fair it is not just the US, there are plenty of Historical examples, anyway a very lengthy discussion but I like this as it sums things up so well.

'Now Who Am I Supposed To Send My Wordle Score To?' Cries Rashida Tlaib

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. — An emotional Representative Rashida Tlaib publicly grieved the death of Hezbollah's leader Hassan Nasrallah, demanding to know who she was supposed to send her daily Wordle score to now that the terrorist was gone.

"Who's going to send me little clapping emojis when I get Wordle in two tries?  Who?!?" cried Tlaib, breaking into tears.  "I've got no one left!  No one!!"

According to Tlaib, [...]

The death of Hassan Nasrallah shows why this is a just war

 

Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, was killed last night in an Israeli air strike on Beirut, as part of its ongoing offensive in southern Lebanon.

Nasrallah's death exposes the glaring omission in most of the media coverage of the conflict.  Few outlets seem willing to recognise the fact that [...]
