@IlhanMN’s tweet about terrorism is quite interesting.

#Iran has long been described as the “world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.”

But don’t be surprised by Omar deliberately neglecting this fact. She parrots Iran’s talking points & has ties to Tehran’s lobby.

Connect the dots:

-Omar has ties with @NegarMortazavi.
-Mortazavi has ties with Iran's lobby group @NIACouncil, launched by Tehran's chief apologist @JZarif.
-Mortazavi also has very close ties with Zarif.
-Is Mortazavi feeding Omar with Zarif's talking points?
I believe so.

Omar’s latest tweet is not the first example of her parroting Zarif’s talking points.

She runs the same narrative about “sanctions depriving Iranians of medicine.”

Note:
@tparsi is the founder of NIAC
@AssalRad is a NIAC member

Omar was angry over President Trump’s decision to eliminate the world’s leading terrorist, Qassem Soleimani, and carefully described him as a “foreign official.”

Reminder:
Soleimani was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of US soldiers & God knows how many civilians.

Does Rep. Ilhan Omar understand the consequences of her words?

When Iran’s official English TV outlet @PressTV praises her, she should make crystal clear her position about Tehran’s mullahs & distance herself from the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.

Don’t be surprised about Omar pushing Iran’s talking points.
She has even brought NIAC members into her office.

@mahyarsorour is the Senior Legislative Assistant to Omar.

Sorour was a candidate for NIAC Action's leadership board back in July 2019.

Omar quoted a tweet by @hodakatebi, a regular at NIAC events.

Katebi called for burning the U.S. flag after the killing of Tehran’s terrorist-in-chief Qassem Soleimani.

Listen to Katebi’s remarks about America.

To be fair, here’s the link to the entire interview for anyone interested.

And NIAC is quite fond of Omar, too.

This is NIAC’s pinned tweet.

And since Omar is so active about sanctions on Iran, let’s ask a few questions about this topic:

-Did "sanctions" prevent Iran’s regime from stopping Mahan Air flights to/from China?

-Did "sanctions" prevent Iran’s regime from quarantining Qom & other COVID-19 hotspots?

Why did Iran recently spend $67 million redecorating the Zeynab Shrine in Damascus, Syria?

Shouldn't such money be used to provide for the Iranian people during the coronavirus outbreak?

The regime ruling Iran didn't have a problem in providing 200 million euros for the IRGC Quds Force, a terrorist-designated group.

And they don’t have money for the people? https://en.radiofarda.com/a/iran-khamenei-orders-additional-200m-euros-to-qods-in-next-two-months/30364067.html

So many such questions can be asked.

And BTW, Omar herself is a very corrupt individual. Another reason why Iran’s lobby knows it can invest on her.

For the record, here are more of Omar’s tweets pushing Iran’s talking points:

-Trump wants war with Iran (which Trump actually prevented)

-Trump should reinstate (Obama’s) Iran nuclear deal

-Sanctions are “economic warfare” (getting it from none other than Zarif himself)

What is the purpose of this thread?

To shed light on Iran’s dangerous influence in the U.S. via NIAC's use of Americans in pursuit of Tehran’s malign interests.

Such as: Iran lobbyists were invited to Obama's White House over 30 times

#ObamaGate https://freebeacon.com/national-security/former-iranian-official-pro-tehran-lobbyist-hosted-obama-white-house-dozens-times/
