Israeli report (could read, Saudi report): "Hezbollah refused Hamas request ..."

"...Harel said the massive firepower the IDF employed against Hamas infrastructure and positions led Hamas to entirely change its "battle rationale" during Cast Lead.... He said the IDF learned then that "Hamas had asked Hezbollah twice to fire rockets at the northern border, but Hezbollah decided to stay out of it." Hezbollah has not fired rockets at Israel since the end of the 2006 Second Lebanon War. IDF experts attribute the relative calm on the country's northern border to Hezbollah's fear of a devastating response to any attack on Israel that could undermine the group's standing in Lebanon. ..."
