This commentary focuses on the impact the Syrian Civil War is having on Hezbollah’s military commitments, its domestic political capital, and its regional presence. Thus far, the group’s protracted military involvement in Syria has 1) redefined its relations with traditional allies such as Iran and the Assad regime; 2) partially altered its strategic calculus with old foes such as Israel; and 3) pushed it towards a war-weariness that may soon impact its military status and political legitimacy in obviously negative ways.
