Nasrallah called attention to a lull in rocket attacks Monday and Tuesday, a 48-hour period during which Israel had declared an abatement in its bombing campaign after an airstrike killed dozens of Lebanese civilians in the village of Qana. The halt came not because Hezbollah was unable to continue the rhythm of attacks, he said, but because the group's political leadership decided to match Israel's gesture.

The two-day period proved not only that Hezbollah's command-and-control structures remain intact, down to individual firing positions, Nasrallah said, but also that the radical Shiite Muslim movement is willing to scale down the cycle of attack and retaliation in order to spare civilian lives on both sides if Israel does the same.
