Iran is active in several countries around the world. In Afghanistan , for recruiting young Shiites and sending them to fight in Syria, as well as Tehran's involvement in the internal affairs of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Iraq through supporting the Popular Mobilization Forces.

Some experts in the Iranian affairs said that the Iranian interfere in the Arab and Islamic countries suggests that Iran's goal is to transform the existing regimes in the region into loyal entities. The evidence of this is what is happening in Iraq now.

" After the Iraqi regime was an opponent to Iran and a watching to its movement towards its neighbors and fought with it many battles , turned to be a defender of the Iranian interests and left the leaders of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards ,headed by Qassem Soleimani , to tamper with Iraq through the spread of sectarianism and change the demographic composition in Sunni cities , " the experts added.

The worst is to find those who describe Iran as having positive positions with Iraq, and describes Saudi Arabia as the worst in its positions with Baghdad, as stated by Qassim Araji member of the Security and Defense Committee in the Iraqi parliament.

If we look further, we will find a shift in the Iranian position towards Hamas movement. After Iran supported it, today we see Iranian accusations to Hamas of seeking to negotiate with Israel via Turkey, according to what the Iranian Revolutionary Guards adviser Brig. Gen. Khusro Aroj said recently .

This can be explained by the fact that Iran's previous support for Hamas came when Iran was unable to intervene in the region's issues, either in terms of the sanctions imposed on it or the power of the ruling regimes before the Arab Spring and by supporting Hamas, it sought to find a foothold in the issues of the region by winning the Arab peoples always supporting the Palestinian cause, but today Iran has several arms in the region, what is the need, in its view , to support the Sunni "Hamas"?.

In short, Iran wants to expand in the region through sectarianism so it does not hesitate to cause problems and destabilize security in the Middle East, and this what made it among the list of the US State Department for the international terrorism in 2015 by describing it "The largest sponsor of terrorism in the world".

It can be said that the spread of Shiism in the Arab region is not an Iranian goal in itself, but the most prominent mechanisms to achieve the Persian goal of controlling the region, which requires an Arab response to confront it and fill any gap in which Iran intervenes to swallow another Arab state.
