1)
Interesting to see @Ilhan/@IlhanMN parrot the talking points of @JZarif & #Iran's apologists/lobbyists about sanctions depriving Iranians of medicine.

In this thread we will discuss the truth about Iran & Omar’s ties to @NIACouncil, Tehran’s lobby in the U.S.
2)
Questions:

-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?
3)
If sanctions are preventing Iran from providing medical care to the Iranian people, why did this regime just send 50 ambulances to Iraq?
4)
If Iran is suffering from sanctions, how does Omar explain this warehouse full of supplies?

5)
Why is Iran’s regime exporting masks abroad?

These boxes are filled with masks for export out of Iran (most likely by the IRGC). Hopefully Bushehr Province will not face a shortage of masks, he says.
6)
Simple question for Rep. Omar:

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

Shouldn't that money be used to provide for the Iranian people during the #COVID19 outbreak?
7)
Simple question for Rep. Omar:

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?

Rep. Omar quoted a tweet by @hodakatebi, a regular at events held by Iran’s DC-based lobby group @NIACouncil.

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

Thread below sheds more light
9)
Let’s listen to Hoda Katebi’s remarks about America.

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


10)
Rep. Omar has close ties @NegarMortazavi, an alumnus of Iran’s lobby @NIACouncil who has close ties with @JZarif.

Is Omar receiving Zarif’s talking points from Mortazavi?

Quite possibly.
11)
Rep. Omar 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.
12)
Rep. Omar apparently doesn’t 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.

Reminder:
Ordinary Iranians are complaining of shortages in medical supplies such as face masks.

The truth is that regime officials/insiders are hording supplies for massive profits.
