The regime&#8217;s <\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">priorities<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> remain not the health and welfare of its citizens but the spread of its ideological hatred, the backing of its regional terror network, and of course the furthering of its apocalyptic nuclear program.
