none of these shia groups mentioned in these reports have a goal of establishing radical fundamentalist theocracies.
All of these groups are anti-colonial, anti-western, and pro-iran.
As a counterexample you can look at US Congress funded extremist terrorists groups, like:
0. Jabhat al-Nusra / HTS
1. Al-Qaeda (Jake Sullivan to Clinton: "Al-Qaeda is on our side" https://wikileaks.org/clinton-emails/emailid/23225 )
2. Ahrar al-Sham
3. Free Syrian Army and its factions
4. Southern Front
5. Farouq Brigades
6. ISIS - all trained and organized at Camp Bucca under the US Army and Joint Task Force 134 (Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, Haji Bakr, Abu Muslim and other isis leaders)

- tguvot 1y agothose groups created/sponsored by iran in order to advance it targets. you don't throw billions of dollars into "non-aligned entities" also excellent whataboutism. you can also remember that usa literally terrorized uk as it first step
- slt2021 1y agoyour argument was about Iran being a danger because they were "spreading fundamentalism". I just proved that USA and its despotic monarchy allies/vassals in the middle east are the one spreading fundamentalism. So the real purpose is just colonial control by the USA over the last more or less independent country in the middle east. Same as Cuba: Cuba represents no danger as far as military or socialism. It is still being sanctioned to the detriment of its population, just because it has not submitted fully to be taken over by the US capital and military
