Soleimani's Latin America Terror

(Wall Street Journal) Mary Anastasia O'Grady - By taking out Soleimani, President Trump also did Latin America a big favor. The dead general was mourned by Cuba's military dictatorship, the drug-trafficking terrorist group Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, members of the Venezuelan dictatorship, and Iranian proxy networks in Brazil, Peru, Argentina, El Salvador and Mexico. It has been a mistake to let Iran's incursions into Latin America during the last two decades go unanswered. Iran plays the long game in its effort to undermine U.S. leadership and expand its influence. In the Western Hemisphere, the regime's Ministry of Intelligence has taken the lead by establishing "cultural centers" in many urban areas, from which it can spread propaganda, proselytize, radicalize converts and recruit locals as spies. There is reason to believe that the 2015 murder of Argentine federal prosecutor Alberto Nisman was an Iranian-backed operation.
