The U.S. can no longer afford to ignore Syria. Iran is using the Israel-bordering nation to expand its regional power and threats.

In 2015, then-President Barack Obama predicted that the Russian intervention in the Syrian civil war would be a “quagmire” for Moscow. The opposite happened. Russia and Iran worked together to save Syrian dictator Bashar Assad. Iran’s proxies, manyby the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, are now using what they’ve learned in Syria to attack America’s allies in the region, including Israel and the Gulf states.

For years, arguably decades, Lebanon has been the centerpiece of Iran’s plans. The country’s governance is held hostage by, Iran’s foremost proxy, and a U.S.-designated terrorist group that possesses more weapons than many nation-states. Like other Iranian-backed groups, Hezbollah has used civilian populationin the Port of Beirut, killing more than 200 people and fueling popular discontent.
