    The pager attack was mostly against hospitals and health services, while it did affect many Hezbollah members, the main users of pagers are hospital staff. It did not cause much damage to the organization.

    Hezbollahs goal was to force a ceasefire in gaza, this failed.

    While the Zionists were not able to advance much in lebanon, this defence was extremely costly for Hezbollah, while the Zionists did not suffer much. In 2006, while the Zionists advanced more, Hezbollah loses were 70 times less, and at least 1 Zionist army ended up encircled. Ready to be slaughtered.

    The silver lining is that the reason for the ceasefire was due to betrayal from other Lebanese factions, not to a defeat in the field.

      I just looked up the casualties in that theater. You're right. I still don't think it was a clear win for Israel. Definitely a Hezbollah loss though
