'Unnamed' Senior Israeli Officer: "Iran displeased with Nasrallah ... rocket fire in defiance of Hezbollah"

Does anyone really believe this stuff? 
"A senior Israel Defense Forces officer said Thursday that all five incidents of rocket fire from southern Lebanon into Israel have been carried out in absolute defiance of Hezbollah directives and that Iran had taken control over the Lebanese militia. 
The officer, who preferred to remain unnamed, said that Hezbollah was in a weakened state  ..... According to the officer, Hezbollah now operates freely only in Shiite villages and towns........Iran's Revolutionary Guard has increased its control over Hezbollah in recent years and is preventing the Lebanese militia from forming its own independent structure. 
Intelligence experts attribute this increase in Iranian control to Iran's displeasure over Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah's conduct during the Second Lebanon War, which the group fought against Israel in southern Lebanon...."
