In what sense did we "destroy" the Nazis?

Seriously... Hezbollah is a military force. So long as it remains one, it has no legitimacy as a political party. Zero. If they disarm, then they regain legitimacy -- but there seems to be no desire to do that.
In the military sense, we can destroy them. But Hezbollah will still exist. And I think you and I are using the word "legitimacy" in different ways, too. This conversation may be more about the ambiguity of language than about substantive differences in what Hezbollah deserves.
