U.S. Envoys Accuse Iran of Profiting from Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
(Washington Post) Anne Gearan and Ruth Eglash - U.S. Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt tweeted Wednesday that "The Iranian regime has exploited the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for decades - profiting from the chaos & violence to advance its malign activities & influence in the region. A successful peace agreement would be the Iranian regime's worst nightmare." "It is clear that Iran is deeply invested in seeing this conflict continue," Greenblatt and U.S. State Department special representative for Iran Brian Hook wrote in a Fox News op-ed Wednesday. "The Iranian regime provides $100 million annually in support to Palestinian terrorist groups....None of these funds [go to] humanitarian relief."
