You'll have to pardon my terribly worded question. I of course have read Clausewitz and understand that war is an extension of politics by other means. I'm happy to say that Kings professors remain top notch. Ahron Bregman and Sue Onslow were fantastic, although I can't say the same about Julian Reid and his obsession with biopolitics.

What I meant to ask was ... 'Have the realities on the ground in Lebanon and Israel since the war's end slowly chipped away at the argument that Hezbollah defeated Israel? When taking into account Hezbollah's mobility restrictions, infrastructural losses, domestic political opposition, 4 years of enhanced deterrence, to name a few, can it be said that neither side achieved victory? Even when considering Hezbollah's even larger weapons stockpiles?

Rex touched on a bit of this...
