Syria on High Alert, Iranian Commander Controls Hezbollah

Found this bit of information over at Debka File. Apparently Syria is now on high alert (can't say I blame them). They have pilots in cockpits on the runway as we speak. The interesting part is that this has been done in response to an Iranian move in Lebanon.

"Iran’s Revolutionary Guards commander Brig.-Gen Yahya Rahim Safavi (picture) assumed command of the Lebanon war from Hizballah leader Hassan Nasrallah."

Debka File Article
So it looks like Iran doesn't approve of Nasrallah's methods so far. If this is true, then the question is whether Iran thinks Hezbollah has been too strong or too weak. Given Iran's feelings towards the state of Israel I would say that Iran wants more to happen.
