A War Bleg

Here's a question. Does anyone have any idea how much money Israel is spending on its invasion of Lebanon? Quite a lot, I would imagine, but I can't seem to find anything on this. Hezbollah seems to be a rather cheap organization -- the highest estimate I can find is $400 million per year, about the cost of a single F/A-22 Raptor.

Does anyone have any idea how much money Israel is spending on its invasion of Lebanon?

And just as important, how much American money is Israel spending on this invasion?
