How did you arrive at this assumption???
The Israeli's are held to civilized standards that Hezbollah and Hamas are not. This inherently means that Hezbollah and Hamas are not expected to be able to behave to the high level expected of Israeli's. The implications are that they are a lesser level of human.

Not the original poster here but the op has a point -- mention of Israeli casualties are hard to find in the report, and the report's last paragraph merely parrots Hezbollah's military advantageous "immediate ceasefire" demand. Problem is, today, after a so called cease fire is being formalized, more Hezbo rockets were fired toward Israel. The cardinal can speak for the Church (as he does in his comments quoted in the last paragraph -- but leave "U.S. Catholics" like me out of his claim. We will be back in months but "The Party of God" will be firing longer range missiles into Israel. Hopefully the Church will be more even handed in its assessment and response to casualities, north or south of the border.
Lebanon is forever fated to be a tool and stomping ground for the surrounding nations. Unless a strongman manages to unite all of the factions (Shiites, Maronites, Druze, etc.) around an authoritarian welfare state (see Syria), it is forever (expletive).
