Iranian here, the government here spends most of our country’s money on hezbollah and other proxy groups, fracturing it is simply impossible.
Why doesn't Israel or the US try to fracture the relationship between Hezbollah and Iran? Instead of straight forward attack. Or make Iran see they are not worth the headache?

Oh man can we start a thread of discussion I have so many questions. If it is cool we can PM each other if you don’t want it public. But just want your ok first. Let me know. Also what are you into?

Eh, that’s a stup… I mean…
Hezbollah is Iran’s creation. This is a bit like asking why Iran isn’t trying to fracture the relationship between USA and CIA.
Witchfire@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
…or the US and Israel

Soviet Union too. It was the first country to recognize Israel.

Hezbollah is not an iranian creation. It is the creation of iarseli occupstion of lebanon.

Hate to break it you, but Hezbollah is not why Israel is attacking Lebanon. They’re trying to win territory. The rest is propaganda.

How would you propose that?

Afghanistan or Vietnam them. Bleed them dry.

I have some bad news for you about both conflicts…
setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
What?
Those conflicts were conventional forces being extended to achieve friendly political stability in nations with a large enough population that was hostile to be a problem to root out.
In your suggestion the U.S. is supposed to play the role of the Viet Cong in Lebanon, and Hezbollah is supposed to play the role of a foreign occupying conventional military.
So, how exactly would this be done?

Even better, why not fracture the relationship between the US and Israel?
Patnou@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I am probably going to get put on a list somewhere for this. But we need to quit being the nursing mother to baby Israel. Heck I think Israel would rather we don’t get involved in their shit or comment on their stuff anyway.

Israel plays a game by saying they are independent but are essentially parasites. They rely on the US for everything - financial, military, diplomatic and cultural support. Just see the latest attempt by them to latch on to intelligence and military budget spending.
