Hezbolla didn't intentionally include israel in its supply chain. The impressive part of the attack is that they managed to insert themselves into an enemy's military supply chain without their enemy knowing - which is a 101 thing militaries try to prevent. If they were just abusing their known position in a supply chain, it would be much less impressive.

So i don't think it follows that the attack would lead to israel being cut out of supply chains, since the attack didn't involve that.

It wasn't "impressive", it just operated outside the bounds of moral values that the rest of the world holds, so it was unexpected.
