Iran:Ex-US Ambassador: Iranian regime intends to incorporate Iraq, Syria and Lebanon

Ambassador Ginsberg argues that Iran’s regime has become more immoderate following the nuclear agreement last July: "The record of meddlesome, terror-laden interference throughout the Middle East by Tehran is growing longer by the day." In addition, he argues, the regime’s current President Hassan Rouhani is hanging more people than the "notorious Ahmadinejad."
The list of Iranian threats to international security is long: increased funding of Hezbollah and Hamas; a proxy war in Yemen against the U.S. and Saudi-backed government; ballistic missile tests in violation of existing Security Council resolutions; and "massively" deploying the Revolutionary Guard inside Syria to defend Assad. However, for Ginsberg, the focus of his main concern is Iranian action in Iraq.
