Iran Solidifies Control over Hizbullah
[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Katz - Iran is consolidating its grip on Hizbullah and instituted a number of structural changes following the Second Lebanon War, under which Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah no longer enjoys exclusive command over its military wing, top Israeli defense officials have revealed. Nasrallah now has to receive Iranian permission prior to certain operations. "There is real Iranian command now over Hizbullah," a top IDF officer said. "Whenever [Nasrallah] pops his head out of his bunker he sees an Iranian official standing over him."
