Alavi Foundation and the Iranian regime’s web of influence in US

Survey of Iranian-Americans

Dec 18th, 2008

While there are some reservations about the limited number of people surveyed (only 400) and the format of the questionnaire, we should however, welcome the results as the Iranian-Americans have in large numbers pointed to the common roots of their concerns. The results show in a clear way that the Iranian-American’s concerns are directly caused by the Iranian regime.

Influencing US policy toward Iran, Conference at New York University

Nov 26th, 2008

On 3 December 2008, a group of “Iran experts” and scholars will be participating in a one day conference to debate the US policy toward Iran. This meeting, far from a usual experts’ gathering, is part of a broader campaign which aims to influence Obama’s policy with regards to Iran.
This time though, there are no reformists or pragmatists in power in Tehran. Once again we hear the same campaign waffles coming from the Iranian lobbyist groups for the US to adopt a more amicable practice with Iran; this time though, simply because Bush was not peaceful enough.



Iranian Regime’s Lobby Becomes Active in Congress

Nov 15th, 2008

Next Tuesday, on November 18, the National Iranian American Council (NIAC) will host a congressional briefing. Senator Thomas Carper (D-DE) and Representative John Tierney (D-MA) are amongst the speakers. They will be talking about the new president’s policy towards Iran.
It is deeply concerning that a discredited group within the Iranian-American community, with blatantly obvious connections with the Islamic Republic, should be allowed to freely influence Washington’s political circles to the detriment of the American peoples’ and ultimately, the world community’s interests.
