The radical regime in Tehran has used the cash windfall it received from the nuclear deal to step up its dangerous and destabilizing behavior. From Syria – where it supports the murderous Assad regime – to Yemen – where it fuels the civil war – Iran is seeking to spread terror and war across the Middle East in an effort to advance its objectives.
