Calculus Following a Strike on Iran

March 14, 2012 -- The potential consequences of an American
or Israeli preemptive strike against Iranian nuclear weapons sites
are legion. For example, Tehran might fire missiles in

retaliation, launch terrorist attacks, or attempt to disrupt oil
flows through the Persian Gulf. Until recently, conventional
wisdom also held that the Iranian-backed Lebanese Shiite militia
Hizballah would unleash its rockets on Israel in response to such
an attack on Iran. Yet despite continued claims by senior
Hizballah officials that an assault on the Islamic Republic
"means the whole region will be set alight," other statements by
Hassan Nasrallah, the organization's secretary-general, have
raised doubts about whether the militia would in fact respond.
Background
Hizballah was established in Lebanon in the early 1980s with
Iranian political and financial support. During the 1982 Israeli
invasion, Tehran dispatched 1,500 Revolutionary Guards to the
Beqa Valley to help organize a resistance force.
Today, unlike the majority of Lebanon's historically Iraq-
oriented Shiite population, Hizballah members are required to
embrace the doctrine of velayat-e faqih, which puts an Iranian
mullah at the pinnacle of Shiite theology and politics. Critics
point to this, along with the organization's professed goal in the
early 1980s of transforming Lebanon into an Islamic state, as
evidence that Hizballah is an agent of Iran.

Many in Israel and among Lebanon's pro-Western, anti-Syrian
"March 14 coalition" believe that Hizballah takes strategic
guidance, if not direct orders, from Tehran. Traditionally,
Hizballah officials have not discussed the chain-of-command
issue. In early February, however, after Iranian Supreme Leader
