How should Israel tackle Hezbollah and its estimated 150,000 rockets all pointed at them? 

Is pushing the Lebanon’s terror insurgency back behind the Litani River enough? 

In this era of long range technology, isn’t a river just an arbitrary line? The terrorists can still reach Israel from there. 

Hezbollah is a battalion of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Wouldn’t it be best if they were removed completely? 

Let’s talk about the sheer audaciousness of the pager and walkie talkie attack against them, the psychological effect of it and the downgrade in their military capabilities.

Then there’s Yemen, is America doing enough to quell their threat? 

And boots on the ground in Syria: Israel is showing it can defend itself - even thousands of miles into enemy territory.

And is Iran, the country hiding behind its deathly proxies only a "paper tiger" after all?

Benjamin Anthony served in the Israel Defense Forces in the second Lebanon War during the summer of 2006, 

Like now it was a war started by Hezbollah's attack on Israeli forces: they captured two soldiers and killed eight others. israel declared war.

Benjamin’s experiences and insights from then have influenced his later life.

He’s also a veteran of Operation Pillar of Defense in 2012 and Operation Protective Edge in 2014.

He’s now the CEO and cofounder with Rozita Pnini of the Miryam Institute, debating Israel’s future, engaging with international policy-makers. 

He also hosts a weekly podcast, the Benjamin Anthony Show, where alongside Miryam Institute’s in-house analyst Yaakov Lappin they consider in detail the very latest military and diplomatic issues facing Israel. It’s available on this very platform where you're listening to my show now.
