Iran spending billions on terrorists' salaries - Washington Times

Iran's regime has been sending billions of dollars to fill the pockets of terrorist fighters across the Middle East, including in Yemen, Syria, Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, according to a private US government report ordered by Senator Mark Kirk.
Iran's defense budget ranges anywhere between $ 14 billion to $ 30 billion a year and much of that money goes to fund terrorist groups and rebel fighters throughout the region, according to the Congressional Research Service report conducted at the request of Sen. Kirk, an Illinois Republican,
 The Washington Times reported on Saturday. 
 "Similarly, another study claims that actual funding for the [Iranian Revolutionary Guard Force's Al Quds Force] is 'much greater'" than the amount allocated in the state budget, as the group's funds are supplemented by its own economic activities, "the report said.
