Weakening Hezbollah and the Iranian Regime

Prof. Kobi Michael characterizes Lebanon as a failed state and advocates for a strategy that combines military force to weaken Hezbollah with diplomatic initiatives to empower the Lebanese army and state.

He emphasizes that Hezbollah’s actions are driven by Iran, making it essential to prevent the Iranian regime from obtaining nuclear weapons or controlling the strategic Strait of Hormuz.

Finally, Michael supports holding territory in South Lebanon as leverage and believes that sustained economic blockades are necessary to transform military victories into long-term strategic success against Iran.

The full interview took place on ILTV on April 15, 2026.
