As colleges begin the new school year, “pro-Palestine” protesters need to start asking who’s really calling the shots: It may be agents of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The Post’s Isabel Vincent reported exclusively Friday that Iran is funding anti-Israel, pro-Hamas groups and campus protests via a network of activist groups whose names bear no sign of Tehran’s ties.
For instance, members of the Texas-based Rise Against Oppression (which downplays its links to Iran) “reclaimed” a student center at Houston University in April.
Many pro-Palestinian groups also get funding (directly, or via the radical Tides Foundation) from the Maximum Difference Foundation, the US family charity of an extended clan whose members back in Iran are tight with the family of Iran’s former President Akbar Rafsanjani and have worked with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard.
“Following the October 7th attacks . . . Tehran has poured money and logistical support into anti-Israel and pro-terror rallies, encampments and civil disorder,” said Sam Westrop, director of Middle East Forum’s Islamist Watch project.
Westrop added that the Iranian regime “appears to operate mosques, activist and student groups that are deeply involved in pro-terror demonstrations, alongside Beijing-backed and Hamas-aligned groups.”
In July, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines revealed: “We have observed actors tied to Iran’s government posing as activists online, seeking to encourage protests, and even providing financial support to protesters.”
Is the rest of the Harris-Biden administration asleep at the switch in the face of a Tehran-backed fifth column movement inside of the United States?
Seems so: The White House is striving to appease the protesters, with both Israel-skeptical Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and the anti-Israel Uncommitted National Movement at the DNC claiming that Kamala Harris has “expressed openness” to restricting or ending aid to Israel.
Harris-Biden have always been soft on Iran, but letting Tehran manipulate US protests and then bending to the protesters is beyond appalling.
