Koch, Soros Operatives Host Secret Meeting To Plot Iran Nuke Deal Revival

According to internal correspondence obtained from the Associated Press, a group of progressive activists, supported by Charles Koch, George Soros and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, are organizing a secret lobbying campaign for the Iran nuclear deal to be revived by linking it with the Iranian human rights movement. Washington Free Beacon.

Activists representing groups such as J Street, NIAC Action and the Open Society Foundations, Human Rights Watch and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund have joined forces to lobby legislators to use human rights legislations to cover for reviving negotiations with Iran. This is according to an email that was sent by a J Street lobbyist to other activists in January. It was obtained by The Free Beacon.

“I’m writing to suggest that this group convene virtually next week to brainstorm and hopefully find consensus on the elements of legislation to support the Iranian people that we could propose to diplomacy-oriented lawmakers,” Dylan Williams of J Street wrote the following. “Given the usual need to be discrete [sic], the charged nature of the topic, and the outrageous threats against several members of this group, please do keep this initiative close-hold,” He concluded.

The activist groups “plan to pursue a dual-track legislative agenda, where they would find a way through legislation to give pro-deal Democrats cover by supporting Iranian women and Iranian human rights, without in any way challenging the revival of a nuclear deal, while at the same time building a coalition of members of the House and Senate willing to write a very public letter to the president urging him to keep the door to diplomacy over on the nuclear file,” A source who was familiar with the discussions said that the Free Beacon.

This comes as U.S. lawmakers face increasing public pressure to tighten Iran sanctions amid Iran’s brutal crackdown on protesters, and ongoing military support for Russia. The strategy is a sign that even the strongest advocates for the nuclear deal realize the pro-diplomacy position has become politically toxic—and that politicians who want to reenter the agreement will need to at least give the appearance of backing the Iranian human rights movement.
