minimal collateral damage to infrastructure, while

Not their infrastructure; the IDF would have little preference
for preserving it.
place the strike packages on a few F-15E's, or GLCM's
and sanitize the target areas of hezbollah combatants
with less losses than a direct engagement of ground
troops.
Why sure, if you ignore the political implications of using nukes -such
as killing large numbers of noncombatents, inflaming the entire muslim
world to jihad, etc- nukes always look good.
