(CNN) Nicole Gaouette - Israel's ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, revealed to the Security Council on Thursday Iran's plans to dominate Syria, destroy Israel and "terrorize the entire free world." "Iran is turning the entire country of Syria into the largest military base in the world." There are 82,000 fighters "directly under Iranian authority in Syria," including 3,000 members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and 9,000 members of Hizbullah. "The entire international community should be concerned about Iran." Even though Iran is targeting Israel first, "it is you who are next." Danon said that Iran has only increased its military spending since the nuclear pact was signed in 2015. "In 2014, 17% of Iran's government spending went to its military. This past year, in 2017, this number ballooned to 22%. That's $23 billion spent on missiles, arms and other weapons of war." 2018-01-26 00:00:00Full Article
