Lebanese journalist Tony Boulos addressed the war between Israel and Hezbollah, saying that after almost a year since it began, Hezbollah's leader Hassan Nasrallah is in trouble.

In an interview he gave to Saudi media, he said: "The latest escalation on the northern border is still within the framework of the familiar tempo, despite its expansion sometimes to the Bekaa and the border of Syria. This is a reality we've gotten used to in recent months. Still, the statement of Prime Minister Netanyahu and the leaks regarding the plans to expand the war created significant effect in Lebanon."

Regarding Nasrallah, he said that "the organization is having difficulty in dealing with the current Israeli strategy. Unlike his expectations of a brief round of fighting, he's found himself in a prolonged war of attrition. His military capabilities were significantly harmed, and his weapons arsenal has suffered serious hits.

"While Hezbollah expected to be able to launch thousands of missiles in a day towards northern Israel, in practice it can send at most a few hundreds of missiles, most of them short-range and with limited effect on the battles."

Well then, what did he expect? That he can do whatever he wants without consequences?
