Since the start of the war between Israel and Thomas, we've been hearing a lot about Iran-backed

militias. One of those groups killed three U.S. service members in Jordan earlier this

And that response...

Other Iran-backed militias include Hamas.

One of the largest financial backers and supporters of Hamas is Iran.

Hezbollah, of course we know that Hezbollah and Iran have deep ties.

There's something quite different.
