The Obama administration and its negotiating partners have described their nuclear deal with Iran as the best way to prevent Tehran from getting a bomb over the next decade.

But recent events have raised questions about another issue not covered in the agreement: Iran’s aggression in the Middle East.

Indeed, Iran has shown no signs of retracting its meddling in the region since the accord was announced.

The newest concern comes from Israel, which is alleging that Iran sponsored rocket attacks into its territory from Syria last week.
