NIAC endorses AIPAC think-tank's fellow

I understand Trita Parsi's frustration over accusations VOA Persian has raised against him and NIAC in its usual partial way of journalism. (Read NIAC's response that was never given a voice on VOA Persian. )

But I wonder how can this personal vendetta justify spending NIAC's hardly earned credibility to Mehdi Khalaji, a strong advocate for sanctions against Iran, a resident fellow at the Washington Institute (read AIPAC's think-tank), and an associate of Patrick Clawson and Ilan Berman, whom I think all NIAC members already know about their hardline anti-Iranian stance.

This is just a shame and I think NIAC members and supporters should object to that.
