"Hizbolla has demolished and defeated the big monster that's called israel"? Then why was $5 billion in aid sought by Lebanon to repair southern parts of Lebanon?

I didn't say Hezbolla was eliminated. I said it was crushed. Much of it's headquarters were. It's spirit is still intact, see above article; but they direct it at the Lebanese government. Gee, I wonder why?
