Abstract
- The next day, Israel Defense Forces chief of staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevy told the conference that Hezbollah's military buildup is a major challenge, noting that Israel must "consider the right timing for an advantageous initiative." Also present at the event was senior Hezbollah official Hashem Safieddine, who threatened Israel with a "rain of precision missiles." What Hezbollah might have inferred from these exchanges is that Israel generally prefers to target enemies in less volatile theaters and with less potential for blowback when responding to attacks.
