Following the Obama administration’s nuclear deal, Iran’s behavior went from bad to worse. 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. And in Iran, the regime continues to unjustly imprison Americans and repress the Iranian people with terrible human rights abuses.
