Israel won the second Lebanon war, but it wasn't a very pretty win. Israel was effective in occupying parts of Southern Lebanon, and Israel was also able to destroy almost all of the enemy's long range weapons and infrastructure. But the fact that rockets continued to hit Israel despite these achievements is somewhat a mystery. It is widley beleived that the rocket launchers would launch from civilian homes, knowing that Israel wouldn't attack. So essentially, the hizballah terrorists repetidly commited this war crime without any condemnation. If I hade to grade Israel on her performance in the war, She gets a B+. I would give hizballah a failing grade (F), but they get an A in turning the stench of defeat in to the smell of false victory. Neverhteless, Israel prevalied in every single battle on the ground in Lebanon, despite rumors of harsh Lebanese resistance.
There were a few wars that Israel fought in Lebanon: the Lebanese Civil War from 1981-1982, the Occupation of Southern Lebanon from 1982-2000, and the War Against Hezbollah in 2006.

YES. The two suicide bombings against the Israel Defense Forces' headquarters building in Tyre, Lebanon took place in 1982 and 1983, which was during Israel's intervention in the Lebanese Civil War.
