NIAC charlatanism is not about things that I disagree with. Rather it is about this organization's attempt to hide behind causes such as human rights to promote specific lobbyist agendas. For example everyone knows who Reza Pahlavi is. I have no problem if Trita Parsi tells everyone what he really is, i.e. a lobbyist. Charlatanism begins when lobbyists start calling themselves "human rights activists" (as Parsi does) and others who disagree with them warmongers. Why in the interest of free dissemination of information doesn't Parsi attend a debate with Hassan Dai but instead decides to act like a coward and silence his voice by hauling him to the court? Dai's position is that NIAC is a lobbyist group. We all know that lobbyists cannot and do not operate in vacuum but are tied to governments. So what is all this suing fuss about? In comparison, regardless of whatever I think of someone like Hooshang Amirahmadi, I command him for being more transparent and deciding to debate Dai on VOA.
