While some of the comments have belittled the idea of Iran flying in Lebanese Hezbollah to bring the Iranian people under control, I disagree. It is much more likely that a few thousand Lebanese were in Iran getting advanced training in combat so they could invade Israel then it is they were flown in specially to practice these tactics just as a counter-revolutionary suppression team.
It has been speculated for some time that the two parts of Hezbollah were working closely together and that hundreds, if not thousands, of the Lebanese branch were being trained in Iran at any given time. If that is true, and I find few who will argue against this, then it is easy to figure out that this would be great advanced training for advanced terrorist urban combat. Killing people who disagree with terrorism is a good job for trained terrorists, after all.

Hezbollah is operating in TehranDer Spidgel just confirmed the rumors, that many of the guys that are cracking down on the demonstrators in the streets are lebanese hezbollah members. According to them, there are 5000 Hezbollah members in Iran that are part of the crackdown on the students. This is a big mistake. You don't bring an arab to beat down a Persian, unless you want the Persians to get really and I mean really pissed off. The hatred that Persians have for arabs are the stuff of legend, and if the regime has to use arabs to crack down on its people, then it maybe weaker than we ever though.
