Hezbollah has 14 of the 128 seats in Parliament, and 3 of the 5 Shi'ite Ministry seats. The Parliament is split equally between Christians and Muslims under the constitution. Right now, Hezbollah likely has much more support than their seats represent; ultimately, Hezbollah would almost certainly like to destabilize the system and provide for majority Islamic representation in Lebanon.

Let's try for one more: one of Israel's most important protections comes from its aura of invincibility. After this invasion, that aura is badly damaged. Israel shouldn't risk it over anything but major fights.
