Neuterring Hizbollah is the goal.
That presuposes that the current administration considers your suggest to be a goal. I believe we refer to that as a “fact not in evidence”.

I agree. Beyond that we’re talking about one of the biggest supporters of terrorism on the planet. Hezbollah, Hamas, ultimately even Al Fatah were all supported by Syria.
Syria arms these groups. Hezbollah is essentially a military arm of Syria. It has pushed to take over Lebanon. It has taken over Southern Lebanon. It’s Israel’s number one enemy.
Defang Syria, and you’ve partially defanged Iran.
I’m by no means saying Syria would be perfect if Assad were gone, but it would probably be better. I’ve read reports that Hezbollah would be severely impacted if the leadership of Syria were shaken up. I’d sure like to think that would be the case.
