The regime\u2019s proxy terrorist group, Lebanon\u2019s Hezbollahs have managed to help the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/inside-irans-army-of-terror-and-oppression-revolutionary-guards-irgc-part-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IRGC <\/a>to circumvent international sanctions by strengthening their foothold in the far-flung continent, however, their presence not only endangers the citizens of the South American countries, but also threatens global security and peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Acknowledging the cooperation between Iran and a number of countries in South America, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naqdi, the head of the IRGC\u2019s cultural and social affairs, stated on January 9, 2017, that a team from Latin America had travelled to Iran to receive militia training, adding that they had \u2018gravitated toward Islam\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On 22 November 2020, the IRGC Commander-in-Chief, Hussein Salami confirmed that, \u201c\u2026the power of the Islamic Revolution has removed America from its strategic base. Today, the Basij discourse has spread in Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Latin America, and parts of Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NCRI said, \u201cThis so-called show of \u2018power\u2019 amounts to terrorist operations, like the foiled assassination plot of Saudi Arabia\u2019s ambassador to the United States in 2011, the recent arrest of two Iranian operatives in Colombia in November 2021, and the AMIA bombing in Argentina in 1994.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the months following the elimination of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/publications\/special-reports\/the-iranian-regimes-irgc-quds-force-1980s-present\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IRGC\u2019s Quds Force<\/a> Commander Qassem Soleimani, Admiral Craig Faller of the Southern Command warned that retaliation attacks would be possible, saying, \u201cSome Hezbollah supporters cache weapons and raise funds, often via charitable donations, remittances, and sometimes through illicit means, such as drug trafficking and money laundering. Having a footprint in the region also allows Iran to collect intelligence and conduct contingency planning for possible retaliatory attacks against the U.S. and Western interests.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He further stated that, \u201cThe Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force, Tehran\u2019s primary external operations unit for exporting the Islamic Revolution, maintains operatives in foreign embassies, charities, and religious and cultural institutions to enhance ties globally.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs on March 18, 2015, the co-Author of \u2018Iran\u2019s Strategic Penetration of Latin America\u2019, Joseph M. Humire gave a testimony which shone a spotlight on the presence of the Iranian regime in South America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NCRI said, \u201cAccording to Humire, Tehran\u2019s pattern of penetration has four essential layers. These layers begin at an informal level through cultural exchange, which transitions to more formal diplomatic relations that allows for greater economic cooperation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Humire stated that the regime used \u201cits cultural penetration to gain access to prominent individuals within the Islamic and indigenous communities throughout the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, the number of Iranian embassies across South America has increased greatly. Alongside its embassies, the regime has built several mosques and \u2018Islamic\u2019 cultural centers, which are used by the regime\u2019s espionage network to keep their \u2018eyes and ears on the ground\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NCRI <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/exclusive-report-irgc-and-hezbollahs-presence-in-south-america\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a>, \u201cThis method has allowed the regime to infiltrate several intelligence and defense services of countries or co-opt their services for its benefit. Sadly, the vast corruption in Latin America enables Tehran\u2019s ability to move through various layers of strategic penetration in different countries in the Western Hemisphere.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not content with being involved in the majority of the crises across the Middle East, the Iranian regime has
