Me thinks there is a possibility, if Iran strikes at Israel, they will strike too at Iraq or Afghanistan at American targets.
National suicide for Iran.
Also, Israel saw weapons that they did not expect, but now they know about them and can prepare defenses. They are taking some to show the Russians. Bush made an issue with Putin over small arms trade and has recently embargoed three Russian companies.
Here comes another push to keep developed countries from selling arms to third world dictators. A big lapse was algore ignoring laws that forbade aid to Russia, if they helped Iran with nukes.
I always said during the Iran/Iraq war that if the predatory arms merchants would leave those people alone, all they could do would be to throw rocks at each other. That probably would not be on the news 24/7.

Most gamblers do that
Then someday they lose
If you tghink Hezbollah won, then you haven't been watching the same war as most have been watching.
The Hezbos got their butts handed to them. Israel achieved all its objectives militarily. The only victory the Hezzies can claim is that they can show the world the damage they caused Lebanon at the hands of the Israelis.
7 days to get ready
If you are not ready yet which I doubt
Godd Idea. The Israel government should pack up and move to Jerusalem.
Sure, they have the range.
But do they have the accuracy?
Nope.
Maybe the Gaza Strip and Syria won't be a problem anymore,,,

Also, August 22 still looms for another 7 days.
If Wallace wasn't such an media liberal maniac looking for glory after retirement, he could have taken in a Trojan Horse as a gift to Mr. Iranian Behavior Specialist.
Right Backatcha, Khatami!
I wouldn't be surprised if the UN negotiated with Hezbollah to cease firing rockets in order to regain some credibility, so that Kofi & Friends can say, "Hey, look, we brokered a ceasefire, we aren't useless."
They might be not willing to hit Jerusalem, for obvious reasons.
