It would be a good opportunity for China to punish Israel which is America's policeman in Middle East. This will benefit China in gaining sympathies of the Muslims the World over especially Middle East and Iran which supply the oil that China needs. In this way China will gain a foothold in the Middle East and replace America as the major power there.

I don't think China cares about Israel being a 'policeman' as such but, yes, China can and will and already using the Israeli Lobby driven self-destructive American policy in the Middle East to ultimately drive Americans out of the Middle East. One day Americans will find out how a tiny remote country's Lobbies made America lose its influence in such a vital, central geopolitical region. I am sure about it: Policies which are driven by other countries' interests logically bring down the host country. On that note, despite all my negatives about the Afghan Taliban govt; I believe Afghanistan will be better off because those ruling them are beholden to them; the Taliban are not the puppets like Karzai or Ashraf Ghani.
Coming back to the topic, here is Larry C. Johnson, who I greatly admire, once again alluding to the destruction and existential threat to Israel in case Israel attacks Lebanon. The militias can do a lot, as both @925boy and I say here.
