The decision to green-light this terror attack, which could have been one of the largest terrorist attacks in Europe’s history, traces back to the most senior officials of Iran’s regime, according to international news media.

1)
@dw_persian's says German Federal Criminal Court's investigation on Assadollah Assadi, #Iran’s jailed diplomat, indicates mullahs’ network of espionage &terrorism in Europe is much wider than it appears.

No to granting asylum to fake asylum-seekers & No to citizenship 4 them.

https://twitter.com/dw_persian/status/1352351663688998916

2)
Assadi commanded a large network of people tasked with different missions incl. espionage in EU countries. One such network worked in Islamic Center of Hamburg which is recognized by BKA as #Iran regime’s center for espionage &export of fundamentalism.

@eu_eeas

3)
Another issue that caught the attention of the German police is that Assadi had several receipts with him, indicating cash payments he made to some people apparently members of his terrorist network in Europe.

@eu_eeas & @EUCouncil must be vigilant!

#Iranian Lobbyist’s Arrest Should Lead To Broader Efforts To Counter #Iran’s Covert Influence ncr-iran.org/en/news/terror…
A good start would be to look into the activities of ppl like: Trita Parsi &Quicy Inst.,Negar Mortazavi,NIAC&all those affiliated with it, Hossein Mousavian,etc.

@SenatorBraun

Many critics of #Iran regime argue for closer scrutiny of the mission & loyalty of groups like NIAC long before Afrasiabi’s arrest. Last year, @SenatorBraun,@SenTedCruz& @SenTomCotton wrote to US Attny Gen., urging a formal investigation into #Iranlobby.

.@A_Jafarzadeh: "Figures like Kaveh Afrasiabi &Trita Parsi have been given far too much leeway in dealings W/Western policymakers & media outlets, & the resulting“impunity” has “emboldened” the #Iranian regime in running its assets on Western soil." i.e., terrorist activities

@Mohaddessin

1) For the first time, a career diplomat was arrested for transferring a bomb in a flight from #Iran to Europe & hand-delivering it to terrorists he trained for years. Asadollah Assadi also supplied a large amount of money & personally visited the targeted site in a recon mission

2) Assadi, on trial tomorrow in Brussels, is the true image of #Iran’s Foreign Ministry. Many “diplomats” like Assadi have cleverly dodged apprehension or fled justice thanks to appeasement.

3) #Iran’s embassies, centers of assassination and espionage, should be shut down, and their intelligence and Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) Quds Force operatives expelled.
