Here are Hezbollah's views on the war, and they are not exactly surprising.
What's really at stake:
For Ali and his comrades, the latest conflict is a war of survival
not only for Hizbullah but for the whole Shia community. It is not only
as a war with Israel, their enemy for decades, but also with the Sunni
community. Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt have all expressed fears of
Iranian domination over the Middle East."If Israel comes out
victorious from this conflict, this will be a victory for the Sunnis
and they will take the Shia community back in history dozens of years
to the time when we were only allowed to work as garbage collectors in
this country. The Shia will all die before letting this happen again."
On winning the war:
Despite Israel's claims to have inflicted heavy losses on Hizbullah,
Ali insists his side is in a strong position. "Things are going very
well now, whatever happens we are winning. If they keep bombing us we
will stay in the shelters, and with each bomb more people support the
resistance. If they invade they will repeat the miserable fate they had
in 1982, and if they hold one square foot they will give the Islamic
resistance all the legitimacy. If they want to kill Hizbullah they have
to kill every Shia in the south of Lebanon."
The only time they lose, is when there is peace!
And on what happens after the war is over:
And even when the battle with the Israelis is over, he adds menacingly,
Hizbullah will have other battles to fight. "The real battle is after
the end of this war. We will have to settle score with the Lebanese
politicians. We also have the best security and intelligence apparatus
in this country, and we can reach any of those people who are speaking
against us now. Let's finish with the Israelis and then we will settle
scores later."
Glad we cleared this up. And don't forget, this is about Israel, and not about controlling Lebanon!

[...] One day the guns will fall silent, the tears will be wiped out, and the dead will be resting eternaly in their graves. At this moment, the Lebanese, especially the non-Shitte among them, will shift their eyes from Israel and place it on those who dragged this nation to this brutal war. What will happen to Lebanon when that happens. A Hezbollah fighter gives us hints (h/t The Sandmonkey) For Ali and his comrades, the latest conflict is a war of survival not only for Hizbullah but for the whole Shia community. It is not only as a war with Israel, their enemy for decades, but also with the Sunni community. Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt have all expressed fears of Iranian domination over the Middle East.

“the Shia community back in history dozens of years”
Hmmmmm. Couldn’t get much closer to caveman days than Nasrallah’s leadership has already taken them.

This begs the question as to why the Lebanese would collaborate with the monsters. Real Lebanese and Israelies, hell, the entire world have a common enemy. It is hezbullah.
Israelis want peace. Lebanese want peace. Hezbullah wants war and destruction.
Not that hard to figure out who your real friends are. And yeah, sometimes friends need to beat the crap out of each other to wake them up, to intervene, to save themselves from their real demons.
Lebanon, your demon, your enemy, is hezbullah. When you start to confront them, you will get extraordinary support. While you are controlled by them, or a puppet to them, well, you see what is happening now.

Diplomacy and the Hounds of Hell, Part XIV
Putting the UN in charge of peacekeeping in South Lebanon will not address the issues, nor will it result in improved security for Israel or Lebanon.

True house nigger.
If the master would be forced to sit at the negotiation
table, he would loose everything he stole since 48.
Good reason for the master race to go for eternal
war and pay their house niggers and their proxies
with US-money.
No war - no master - no job for a house nigger.

eee- Your ugly slander-talk n****-word shows you cannot express your argument without ad hominem. Shame on you.
that notwithstanding, It is in FACT the case that Jordan and Egypt enjoy no wars with Israel for decades, because they are not sending rockets over the border and are not kidnapping and killing IDF soldiers. If Lebanon was able to have pacified border with Israel, it would be the same. Peace.
Now: WHY WAS NASRALLAH UNHAPPY WITH PEACEFUL BORDER WITH ISRAEL? hmmmm? What made him kidnap soldiers and fire rockets?
This even after Israel withdrew from lebanon in 2000 and ignored previous provocations, such as rockets and cross border attacks.
“Israelis want peace. Lebanese want peace. Hezbullah wants war and destruction.”
Events have proven this to be so.
“If the master would be forced to sit at the negotiation
table, he would loose everything he stole since 48.”
Do you believe Israel, created by UN mandate, has no right to exist?
Do you think the countries of Libya, Somalia, Yemen, Sri Lanka and Bulgaria have a right to exist? Why single out Israel?
