“The National Iranian American Council (NIAC) frequently echoes Tehran’s rhetoric in redirecting blame at the U.S. for Iranian aggression and malfeasance.”
This is an excellent look at NIAC provided by @michaeldjohnsjr. https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/10/an-iran-lobby-in-america/

A court hearing shed light on emails from 2006 between Parsi & Zarif, then Iran’s ambassador to the UN.
Parsi even described himself as: “Few analysts in Washington have the access of Dr. Parsi to decision makers in Iran.”

The “Progressive list” was an effort led by @YasmineTaeb.
Taeb is seen here with @NegarMortazavi, the two leading this rally. They are both former NIAC members & thus linked to Iran's regime.

Here is proof that Taeb & Taeb are former members of Iran's lobby arm NIAC.
Mortazavi is also very fond of Iran's chief apologist Zarif.
Note: Iran's officials only allow pictures with Iranians who are their utmost loyalists.

Listen to Mortazavi in a TV interview boast about having close ties with Team Biden.
I recommend watching the video to the end.

Listen to how Mortazavi justifies the crimes of #Iran's regime. This is the hallmark of Iran's network of apologists & lobbyists in the West.
