6. Conflating AIPAC and CFR is absolutely ridiculous
If you knew anything about CFR you would know that their most prominent Iran scholar/analyst is Ray Takeyh. He has done more analysis than just about anybody on why Iran's leadership are rational opportunists and not the crazy fanatics the neocons want us to believe so that they can justify a bomb bomb bomb Iran strategy. CFR wouldn't fund Takeyh's research if they were in the business of shilling for AIPAC. Nice try, though...
