So I think that's one of the reasons the Israelis are doing the same kind of "body count" analysis that you are. They undertook this retaliatory war to send a message.. That if Lebanon continued to harbor this aggressive heavily armed group within its borders, their entire country would pay the price.

I note that most recently Israel has the UN attempting to obtain release of its two soldiers. Why didn't they try that in the first place? AFAIK, Israel did not gain anything by invading Lebanon, but perhaps I'm incorrect.
