        You are so naive. Trita Parsi is a lobbyist for the Islamic Republic of #Iran in Washington. This isn't some innocent individual & you became a mouthpiece for him. Total misinformation in your article. Iran is aggressive throughout Mid East. #IranWar #IranRegimeChange @HamsedaCA

        Mr Kwong : U know nothing about Iran regime. U destroyed your OWN credibility as a journalist by using the infamous Iran regime lobbyist in DC as your valid source. Your article proves that CBC is not a credible media outlet, spreads #FakeNews & works against #HumanRights.

        All World People Must know There is no difference between reformists and the Iranian regime's extremists These are both under their viewpoint in pursuit of the Middle East and the promotion of political fascist Islam

        Iran is the one pushing for war. Why do you hide what the Iranian government is saying? You just show the REactions of the US/Saudi. This is Iran's government 👇🏼pic.twitter.com/1yDJNSqprE

        Nobody wants war, but was the ME better after Obama’s deal? The answer is no... it got waaaaay worse.. Obama destroyed the ME and made it broken and weak with his support to Iran

        With such an incompetent leader, why wouldn't they try to push their own agenda. They see Putin running circles around Trump so the figure, "Why not..."

        This piece is pure propaganda. The fact that you interviewed mullah apologists like Trita Parsi and Barbara Slavin shows your ill intent.
