I highly doubt Israel was ever afraid of Hezbollah destroying them.
Israel and Iran are arch enemies. This is obvious. Hezbollah and Iran are fuck buddies. This too is obvious. Iran is feeding Hezbollah with money and equipment and has for years. With no intervention, that stockpile will only continue to grow. That is evidenced by a few of the recent rockets fired deep into Israel by Hezbollah.
Israel does not want that stockpile to grow, for obvious reasons. Sitting down and having a nice chat about the issue over tea and crumpets is not going to deplete that stockpile anymore than telling Iran to stop their uranium enrichment program is going to actually make them stop without force.
