I wonder how many members of Congress are aware of this? It's so deceptive, that it is almost comical.
I was just researching the issue, and realized something thats just unbelievable Timmerman and Diaoleslam are straight-up creating lies about the National Iranian American Council (NIAC) and Parsi (its president) as an international affairs student, I wrote a paper on them once and when I was looking for information about Parsi on the web, I came across not one site linking Parsi or his organization to the regime in Tehran (from what it looks like to me, hes really against it) But I did some research on Diaoleslam a colleague of Timmerman (both writers tried to defame Parsi in their respective articles) and turns out this guy (Diaoleslam) is a member of a terrorist group named MEK, and that this group is on the State Departments list of terrorist organizations What the hell? How are these guys pointing the finger at NIAC? Parsi and NIAC are pretty much the only voice of reason and peace among all the crazies They seem to me like they represent the voice of ordinary Iranian Americans who dont want to see their neighbors and friends in America die in war (Iraq, anybody???), and at the same time they dont want their family members killed in Iran But Timmerman and Diaoleslam, in their articles seem to be the extremists, advocating for war. Crazy. BTW heres a link I found to NIACs response: http://www.niacouncil.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=744&Itemid=59
