You are right C2 but you ask a rhetorical question. He didnt go in on the ground because he was scared of a repeating the US problem with mounting losses in iraq and decreasing popularity of the iraq war.
Israels are very american and hate casualties. He took a calculated risk and it blew up on him. If he wasnt ready for ground war, israel should have limited its objectives and not taken the air route which inevitably leads to the tragedy in Qana. This is much like when the US blew up the wedding in afganistan or a building in bagdad. Terrorists hide under the skirts of the brides or fire from civilian locations. They suck and but PR is PR.
