Hmm... if anything, the invasion might very well be into Palestine this time. The hizb's speaker, Hassan, has said in a previous speech that in the next 'big' conflict, the Radwan (none of which have joined the fray yet) may be asked to seize and regain Palestinian territory in which Palestinians will be repatriated! Think "a northern Ghaza-like region" populated by a well-trained, well-supplied and well-supported indigenous people.

Also, the hizb today is not the hizb of 2006. They have a veteran regular force estimated at about 200,000 with perhaps twice that number in reserves. That veteran force has fought in the Syrian conflict and amassed a ton of experience in both defense and offense in all kinds of situations, with modern equipment and at large scale (e.g. an estimate of 10,000 - 15,000 fighters in the battle of Qsayr against US/Turkey/Saudi/Jordanian supported ISIS entrenched troops of a larger number - an even much larger battle in Aleppo). The hizb has many more weapons and weapons systems than has been even hinted at. And nobody really knows how many smart missiles the hizb has although your number is often quoted. That's aside from multiple times more regular missiles. So far, they haven't used ANY smart missiles. There's rumors that they might even have acquired some hypersonic missiles from Iran to counter US aircraft carriers.

Of course, as a Lebanese, I dread the coming war because we'll be under arbitrary bombing by the Zionists and probably the US, as well as other hardships. Me and/or my loved ones may even be massacred. However, the devastation will probably be nowhere near what the Ghazans faced or are facing. In any case, I suspect things will go way, way differently than the Zionists dared to imagine.
