This article examines the military strategies employed during the 2006 Israel–Hezbollah War and assesses the political war aims based on the outcome of the war. The assessment argues that the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF)'s strategy could not realistically attain Israel's strategic aims because the IDF struggled to translate tactical successes into strategic gains. Hezbollah's strategy more effectively matched the war's conduct and enabled it to attain more, albeit limited, war aims
