Analyst Renaud Girard argues that Israel cannot eliminate Hezbollah solely through military force. He asserts that the group will only disarm upon receiving a direct order from Tehran. To achieve this outcome, Girard suggests that a peaceful relationship between Iran and the West is essential. Specifically, he emphasizes the need for Iran to engage in significant business dealings with the United States. This strategic shift would create the necessary conditions for a diplomatic resolution. Consequently, military action alone is viewed as insufficient to resolve the conflict. The focus must shift toward geopolitical stability and economic incentives.
