‘Iranian-sponsored terrorism is greater threat’

Foreign Sunni ‘jihadists’ are a clear and present danger to the Syrian revolution. Iranian-sponsored international Shia terrorist outfits are an even greater threat. They stand unambiguously on the side of tyranny, torture and rape. They are enemies of the Syrian people; they have helped to destroy Iraq. In the West, this latter threat is far less recognised than the first.
