Civilian casualties in Lebanon
I've heard many people claim that Israel is waging war in Lebanon with no regard to civilian casualties. So a question to all my readers: What do you think the number of civilian casualties in Lebanon and Palestine would be, if Israel did wage the war with no regard to civilian casualties?

Jaa'a, vaikea kysymys. Toisaalta voisivat pistää sinne vaikka ydinpommin, jos eivät välittäisi siviiliuhreista.
On kuitenkin vaikea tietää missä määrin on oikeasti kyse siviiliuhreista välittämisestä versus kansainvälisen yhteisön kohdistamasta sosiaalisesta paineesta minimoida siviiliuhrien määrä.
Yeah, it's true that if Israel cared nothing whatsoever for civilian casualties (both arab and their own) they could just nuke the hell out of Lebanon and other adjacent countries, so I agree that "no regard to civilian casualties" is a quite extreme way to describe the current situation. However, unfortunately it doesn't change the fact that neither does Israel seem to care too much even if they incur quite substantial civilian casualties (atm apparently 300+ in Lebanon alone) as a result of their anti-terror campaign, which is regettable.
