I've Been Thinking:

Since its release the Winograd Report has made headlines and generated critique throughout the world.
The Report evaluates Israeli leaders and the decisions they made during the Second Lebanese War.

I need to comment on Amnesty International's comment.
Amnesty International is saying that the Report does not mention Israel's wanton disregard for civilians. Amnesty International is saying that Israel did not distinguish between Hezbollah and civilians.

Nothing could be further from the truth.
The entire reason there was a Winograd Report was because of the way Israel fights a war - which is by making every effort to minimize civilian casualties.
If Israel had approached Southern Lebanon with wanton disregard for civilians, as AI contends, there would have been thousands and thousands of civilian deaths and Hezbollah would have been totally destroyed.

That did not happen.
Hence, the Winograd Report was commissioned and the results were released for the world to read.
