Persian Jews in U.S. Bemoan World's Naivete over Iran Deal
(Times of Israel) Lori Silberman Brauner - There are some 15,000-17,000 Persian Jews in the greater New York area, with the Great Neck Persian Jewish community second in size only to Californian enclaves. Members of the community largely voiced despair at the naivete of an international community that is legitimizing "a brutal and tyrannical regime." Former Tehran native Dr. Naheed Neman, a dentist, said of the regime, "Even if they sign the contract, they can break it." It is "naive to believe they're going to keep their promises." Sam Kermanian, senior adviser to the Iranian American Jewish Federation, said of the agreement, "It is an extremely bad deal which will legitimize a brutal and tyrannical regime which suppresses its own people at home and carries a dangerous and adventurous foreign policy abroad."
