What is the overall strategic situation in Palestine/Lebanon? On one hand, just like Gaza, Israel is spiraling into war in Lebanon without a strategy or clear goals, and even if they wanted to invade, they can’t.

Second: The U.S. faces a strategic dilemma as Israel escalates attacks on Hezbollah, risking broader conflict. While Washington seeks to prevent war, its constrained by limited policy options, political timing, and Netanyahu's brinkmanship. In short this madness won’t end any time soon, but I don’t see it getting out of control.
