Dr. Nazee Moinian: Iranian \u201cspokesperson\u201d
\nor Zionist mouthpiece?<\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Submitted by Anonymous<\/p>\n

Dr. Nazee Moinian has been repeatedly featured and given significant media exposure as a commentator on geopolitical issues relating to Iran. However, audiences are rarely – if ever – provided with relevant contextual information regarding her personal and professional connections that may assist viewers in assessing her perspectives and potential biases.<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

For example, public records indicate that Dr. Moinian\u2019s billionaire husband (Joseph Moinian) has a suite of companies listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) and is one of the largest donors to AIPAC: https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Joseph_Moinian<\/a><\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

Despite this, such connections are not disclosed when Dr. Moinian is presented as an independent commentator or representative voice on matters concerning Iran.<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

The material set out below raises further questions regarding Dr. Moinian’s role and affiliations. Although she describes herself as an \u2018Iranian national\u2019 living in the United States, she is frequently presented by broadcasters as a spokesperson for, or representative of, Iranian public opinion. In numerous media appearances, she has argued that the majority of Iranian\u2019s support the war on their home soil waged by Israel and the United States, often framing her views as reflective of broader sentiment within Iran.<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

All indicators point towards Dr. Moinian being a Zionist operative. The production teams and media outlets either do not undertake any background checks on Ms Moinian, or they are complicit in the fact that she is a Jewish Iranian and staunch supporter of a Greater Israel (as a member of the Israel Lobby), whose family emigrated following the overthrow of the Shah in 1979. This context is never disclosed, and instead she is simply presented as a spokesperson for the Iranian diaspora. <\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

The central concern is not that Ms Moinian holds these views, but that audiences are not provided with sufficient information to evaluate them in their full context. Media organisations and production teams should undertake appropriate due diligence and disclose any relevant affiliations, relationships, or interests that may reasonably be considered material to a contributor’s commentary. Without such transparency, viewers may be left with an incomplete understanding of the background and perspectives of individuals presented as authoritative voices on complex geopolitical issues.<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

Just some of the evidence that Dr Moinian is a mouthpiece for the Israel lobby \u2013 including statements that are nothing short of outrageous \u2013 are listed below:<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n

\u201cTo the whole world, I have a message from Iran . . . This war is not our choice. We are not supporting it. But we feel that Israel is supporting us, caring about us . . . We are hostages here.\u201d<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/i><\/p>\n

Looking to deepen the divide between the regime and its people, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly reached out to Iranians\u2019 hearts and minds stating that he is not at war with the \u201cgreat\u201d and \u201cbrave\u201d Iranian people, but with the Iranian regime. \u201cWe are clearing the path for you to achieve your objective, which is freedom,\u201d he said as the war began<\/i>.<\/u>\"\"<\/b>College campus activism mirrors Iran pre-revolution: Professor (24 June 2025).<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

Nazee Moinian, an Iranian-born adjunct fellow at The Middle East Institute, believes the activism being seen on U.S. college campuses mirrors Iran before the Islamic revolution<\/i>.<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cOne thing that I can tell you with certainty is that what we\u2019re seeing now on college campuses across the US and in Europe is almost an exact replay of what happened in Iran before the Islamic Revolution,\u201d Moinian said.<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cIf we don\u2019t wake up now, if we don\u2019t address this movement that has brainwashed our youth, [that] has basically turned their priorities upside down, has masked the truth, has made victimisation and martyrdom a glorious state of thinking, we will end up where the western liberal values will be marginalised<\/i>.<\/u>\"\"<\/b><\/u>I am a Jewish Iranian-American in favour of the nuclear deal (13 August 2015).<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
