But Hizbollah had Millions of dollars to hand out after the war. Why not use 10% to save a thousand lives?

You need to consider the relative effectiveness of a $ spent on bomb shelters by both sides. For Israel it makes sense, when facing inaccurate, low warhead mass rockets. For Hizbullah facing very accurate 2000lb bombs, it does not make any sense at all.
