Hezbollah was under no threat when FSA was heading towards Damascus. It intervened for the regime, and afterwards did many Islamist groups form. But Hezbollah is done as an organization, it can't sustain war of attrition. Both Hezbollah and regime have man shortage, and Iran is not willing to help. It is only ordering Lebanese to die for Iranian interest. Iran itself is afraid of direct war. Hezbollah has deviated from it's stated cause and now is hated by many Syrians. It should pull out of Syria, and move Alawites into Lebanon and build up defenses in Lebanon. Because Assad regime will fall, and the risk of ISIS taking over ground is enough concern for minorities in Syria if FSA fails to defeat ISIS atfterwards. If that happens, US would intervene with ground troops probably through Turkey. As of now though, this is lost cause. Give it up, because there is no shortage of men on the other side.
I'm sure after loss of Idlib Iran has once again demanded of Hezbollah to send even more forces. Why Hezbollah is accepting such demands makes no sense to me. It can only mean that Hezbollah hates Arabs. If it does another operation similiar to one in 2012 then Arab states need to hit regime, Hezbollah with air strikes and finish the job. We know Iran is fearful of direct confrontation and won't get involved.
Arabs will not send any jets to bomb Syria, for now they'll only send arms and terrorists. Syria is not Yemen where you bomb poor people who basically have nothing more than AK-47s. I assure you, no airstrikes in Syria will happen.
