Lebanon has a government and an army that is not Hezbollah. They do not want Hezbollah's presence in Lebanon either. Which is why you do not hear the Lebanese government denouncing or opposing Israel's actions. You don't see them going to the UN or the US telling them to stop Israel.

Just because you don't approve of their government and response doesn't mean you can just dismiss it.

Lebanon doesn't mind Israel bombing the Capital, flattening multiple residential buildings with 2000lbs bombs killing hundreds of civilians (over a thousand over the past few weeks), followed by a ground invasion? What an insane take.

Like it or not, Hezbollah is a significant portion of the Lebanon Parliament, and runs many social services including hospitals. It's not just militants.

Israeli airstrikes have killed more than 1,000 people in Lebanon over the last two weeks, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry. The U.N. says around 1 million people — nearly a fifth of the country — have been displaced from their homes while fleeing this bombardment.

“This is not an incursion, this is an invasion,” Najat Aoun Saliba, a Lebanese member of parliament, told NPR. “We've been invaded by another country and we have to call on the international community to call it as such.”
