General Predicts Israel Will Attack Iran, Syria, Hamas, Hezb
It is a provocative headline: “Israel braces for July war with up to five enemies.” If we are to believe Israeli military intelligence chief Maj. Gen. Amos Yadlin, this attack will be launched by Iran, Syria, Hizbullah, Hamas and, of course, “al-Qaeda,” the database. “Each of these adversaries is capable of sparking a war in the summer,” Yadlin told the World Tribune. In other words, Israel is capable of attacking one or all of these “adversaries,” as Israel has a notorious history of attacking its neighbors under contrived pretense.
Few remember the words of the Irgun terrorist Menachem Begin, later Israeli prime minister—as Israelis, much like Americans, prefer to be led by terrorists and war criminals—who admitted in 1982 “that Israel had fought three wars in which it had a ‘choice,’ meaning Israel started the wars,” according to Donald Neff, writing for the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs.
Here is Begin’s quote in full: “In June 1967, we had a choice. The Egyptian army concentrations in the Sinai approaches do not prove that [Egyptian President] Nasser was really about to attack us. We must be honest with ourselves. We decided to attack him.”

I don't know about "scholars" or "professors of war", but I am definitely one who would disagree with many of the assertions made in the article, which doesn't appear to cite a source.
Israel failed in their overall objective, which was to disable Hezbollah, but as for Hezbollah "beating" Israel, I suppose that is subjective. What exactly did Hezbollah gain from that little conflict? What did Lebanon gain? Israel gained some fighting experience for their military, probably learned many lessons of what not to do. I'm sure Hezbollah learned much of the same. It was basically round 1 of a longer fight, that is if Hezbollah remains a viable threat, which appears to be the case...at least from a basic guerilla fighting standpoint, not so much to the greater state of Israel.
