I can understand Israel's concern considering Russia is known to support Assad, while Assad has been supplying weaponry to the Hezbollah. There's definitely some indirect (and direct) connections between the Hezbollah and Russia. I kind of hope that eventually the Hezbollah get cut out of the whole conflict in hopes of placating all parties considering they're really the odd one out. Unfortunately, Assad may be unwilling considering they've basically saved his entire regime.
