Not solely, no. I do think that Hezbollah in particular is special to Israel, though. They're camped out across the border, have dug more warrens than a pack of rabbits, and like tossing missles into Northern Israel.
That's unacceptable, of course, and Israel needs to do something, and I don't pretend to know what the optimal solution is. I do see, though, that the slogging is much tougher than Israel anticipated, and I suspect that another long term war and occuption, while maybe necessary here, is not at all what Israel had in mind.
Similar deal with Iraq. Declaring that organizations must be "destroyed" led us to the shit that we're in now in Iraq, and it leads us to the rationale where we have to invade and indefinitely occupy every potential terrorist threat on the planet.
