Originally posted by sonhouseHow much "firing" was going on before the massive Israeli attacks?

Implying Heszbollah will cease firing as soon as Israel stops attacking?

In Iran's case you always wipe your behind with what the International Community wants. How come you suddenly changed your mind and present the International Community's wishes as being relevant in this case ?
