(NEWS) Ahmadinejad Backs Down On Stone Threat

"Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has backed down from plans to throw a rock at Israel. The Hizbullah television station al-Manar had reported that Iran's president would take part in events near the Lebanon-Israel border, and would 'throw a stone towards the Zionist entity.'

However, Iran's IRNA news reported Saturday that Ahmadinejad will not tour the Israeli border.

Hizbullah head Hassan Nasrallah confirmed that the Iranian President will not be throwing rocks at Israel in a speech he gave Saturday. 'If President Ahmadinejad asks my opinion, I shall say: 'A stone? You are capable of throwing more than a stone,'' he said."
