Ret. Gen. McKenzie: Israel Needs to Be Concerned of Hezbollah

EXCERPT:

McKENZIE: "I don't think Israel can shrug it off because I think Israel still needs to be concerned about Lebanese Hezbollah up north in Lebanon. They do have the ability to hurt Israel if they come into the fight. Interesting, last night, there was some tactical back and forth in the northern border, but nothing like the volume of fires that LH, Lebanese Hezbollah, could have generated had they wanted to come into the fight. The fact that they did not choose to do so is, I think, very, very important. It's a very important thing to note because they know and understand what Israel can do to them. I've never viewed the Iranians as being ten foot tall. I don't think the Israelis have either. I have a healthy respect for at least their enthusiasm and their willingness to undertake things that we saw last night, but now the Iranians have got to sit back and — although they'll never say it publicly, they're going to have to examine — re-examine some of the very basic concepts of the way they've constructed their military."
