“Why am I hearing this? Why am I hearing this _now_?” Regardless of the truth or anti-truth of a particular news story (such as this one), it is useful to ask myself these meta-questions.
It is also useful to ask another meta question: “Assuming this is true, why is it failing to get traction?”

I'm assuming that Israel, various gulf states and their proxies inside the US lobbyist complex are a little spaztic about Hezhollah's somewhat higher geopolitical status. Which they earned by their successful fight against ISIS in Syria/Lebanon and Iraq.
