It also didn't work in 2006, but with this Israeli government experts do predict a long offensive with or without ground troops.
Today Hezbollah has seen the biggest air attack since 2006 it's Chaos.

34 day war July 12-August 14, 2006 missed opportunity for Israel

The conflict was sparked-off when, on 12 July 2006, Hezbollah operatives crossed the Israel-Lebanon border to ambush an Israeli military vehicle that was on patrol.

Three Israeli soldiers were killed and two were captured.
When Israel sent a rescue mission into Lebanon in an attempt to find the captives, five more soldiers were killed.

Initially, both Israel and Hezbollah claimed victory in the war, with Nasrallah declaring that Hezbollah had achieved a “divine, historic and strategic victory”.

Some international observers saw the fact that Hezbollah had survived the Israeli assault, despite the asymmetrical power balance, as a PR victory for the group.

In Israel, the war has since come to be seen as a military failure for its inability to disarm or destroy Hezbollah.

A commission of inquiry subsequently appointed by the Israeli government, the Winograd Commission, labelled the war a “missed opportunity” and revealed shortcomings in Israel’s decision-making processes.
