TEL AVIV — It is “pretty rich” and “funny” for Iran to claim a foreign conspiracy is behind the anti-government protests rocking the country while Tehran “has openly been engaged” in attempts to “take over multiple countries,” contended Breitbart Jerusalem bureau chief Aaron Klein.

They are going to have to massively reassess their priorities. If they think they can continue to finance not just terrorism around the world but also the export of the Iranian revolution, which they have been doing successfully to Syria to Iraq and beyond, and they are not going to have consequences for the people who are suffering because the money from the billions and possibly trillions in all of these deals after Obama’s nuclear deal is not going to the people.
