Wilkerson to CNN in March 2015: Let me be very clear that Iran is probably the most democratic country in the Persian Gulf right now. My Republican colleagues will not be happy, but this is the most democratic country.
Wilkerson has been a NIAC success story.

Iran is a theocracy, there is no doubt about that.
It is worth noting that Wilkerson is fully against U.S. President Donald Trump & his policies in the Middle East.
More images of Wilkerson with the NIAC crowd.

Wilkerson displays his unique way of criticizing the Trump administration’s decision to take out Qassem Soleimani, the world’s number one terrorist.
He literally praises Soleimani & parrots Iran’s talking points of the U.S. seeking a new war.

Of course, Wilkerson won’t ever mention the fact that Soleimani’s forces killed at least 600 U.S. soldiers, alongside murdering, maiming, raping & displacing millions of civilians across the Middle East region. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/qassem-soleimani-was-responsible-for-the-deaths-of-hundreds-of-american-soldiers

Wilkerson lobbied for Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal with #Iran, describing it as a “diplomatic success—one that could protect U.S. security..."
Iran used the money from Obama’s deal to fuel terrorism.
Even John Kerry acknowledge it.

It is also worth noting that Wilkerson is criticized for being an anti-Semite, another characteristic that makes him quite close to the mullahs’ regime ruling #Iran. https://freebeacon.com/national-security/cnn-features-anti-semite-lawrence-wilkerson/

Why is all this important?
Wilkerson has close ties with NIAC.
NIAC is a lobby group in the U.S. pushing Iran’s talking points.
Listen to this Iranian regime insider explain that NIAC was established by @JZarif, the foreign minister of Iran.

And as mentioned earlier, Wilkerson also has close ties with Trita Parsi, the official founder of NIAC in the U.S.
Listen to how Trita Parsi parrots Zarif’s talking points.

Parsi has a history of exchanging emails with Zarif.
Here are just four examples.
Thread below provides much more in detail.

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

“Progressives line up their own national security recruits for Biden,” according to Politico.
The list includes none other than Trita Parsi who has very close ties to Tehan’s regime’s senior officials & a history of exchanging emails with Zarif himself.

These photos are quite telling:

Fereydoon was directly involved in the 2015 nuclear talks, seen here w/ Zarif & Ali Akbar Salehi, head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization, while walking after an afternoon meeting with @JohnKerry & U.S. officials in Switzerland.
Notice Parsi’s avatar.
