That's correct!
One more point - the ground offensive for the Israelis is very risky as well - everything is mined and fortified.
I believe, the Israelis' goal is to get the international militari force +Lebanese army to be stationed in S. Lebanon, preferably, French and Sunni Arab nations like S. Arabia, Egypt. It will force Hezbollah either reform into political movement, or fight them
