The last I heard was that civilian casualties in Lebanon were about 400. Apart that this certainly disguises hundreds of Hezbollah fighters - it is becoming clear that Hezbollah is taking heavy casualties - it means that, for all the thousands upon thousands of heavy bombs dropped by Israel, they killed, in two weeks, two persons for every one killed in one minute in Mumbai or Madrid, and and one person for every nine killed in New York City five years ago. What on Earth are you asking for? Besides, it really is important that the Arabs civilians, whose decades-long hysteria has fuelled war after war, should feel on their own skin what war really means. If I were an Israeli leader, I would be a lot less careful than they are.
