Israel has responded to Hezbollah rocket fire with days of bombing, displacing hundreds of thousands of people. We hear fromTasnim Chaaban,  journalist with L’Orient-Today in Beirut about what's happening to more than half a million people displaced in the conflict. Followed by Middle East scholar Hussein Ibish, who says most Lebanese people are fed up with Hezbollah, creating an opening for the government to disarm it, but it will be difficult.
