(Jerusalem Post) The Islamic Republic of Iran has developed a network of centers across the UK that actively promote Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps propaganda, host Iranian officials and IRGC commanders for lectures on fundamentalist ideology, and attempt to influence the British populace to adopt an appeasement policy towards Iran, a special report by the National Union for Democracy in Iran (NUFDI) revealed on Sunday.
“The IRGC views the UK as the #1 destination to export their extremist ideology and influence to,” NUFDI told the Jerusalem Post.
The new report looks at Iran’s “extensive and sophisticated” network in the UK, detailing the specific institutions and individuals responsible for “advancing its agenda.” It specifically draws attention to the Home Office’s inability to designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization, and Iran’s “vast network of propaganda centers masquerading as cultural centers.”
