| Iran's Spymaster Claims Pro-Regime Agents Operating in D.C., London, Canada | |
| 2017-03-24 | |
[Free Beacon] Iran maintains a network of spies and lobbyists who clandestinely push the Islamic regime's agenda in Washington, D.C., and elsewhere, according to the head of Iran's ministry of intelligence, who touted the pro-Iran network's ability to spread its ideology to the West.
Alavi disclosed that Iranians with dual citizenship in the United States, Canada, and England, remain devoted to the "Islamic revolution" and are working to promote this agenda in their adopted homelands. In D.C., Alavi claimed, a "lobby group for the Islamic Republic of Iran" is working to bolster the regime's international status and help legitimize its nuclear endeavors. "They have a lobby group for the Islamic Republic of Iran which does not cost us money," Alavi said, without naming the specific organization. "We should not accuse them and say things that discourage them about the ancestral homeland, this is not good, and losing this capital is not good for the regime." Iranian dual nationals living in the West remain devoted to the Islamic Republic, he added. "It is wrong to say that all dual nationals are traitors, spies, or foreign agents; many of dual nationals love Iran, are a capital for Iran," Alavi said. "Many who live in Canada, London, or the United States [are devoted] to the [Islamic] revolution and the supreme leader ... In those places some attend religious ceremonies. [Those people] love the [Islamic] Revolution." While the Iranian official did not name the lobby group in question, the Free Beacon has reported during the past several months that dissident organizations are pushing for a formal investigation into the National Iranian American Council, or NIAC, which has long fought against charges that it lobbies on the regime's behalf. A group of nearly 100 prominent Iranian dissidents working to undermine the regime petitioned Congress in February to investigate NIAC's ties to the Iranian regime and determine if it is actively helping to push a pro-mullah agenda. | |
