I'm trying to decide whether this is a smear or a lie. Name a leftist who spends even a tenth as much time compiling such a black book as you do writing and editing apologetics for the Iranian state. Name one who doesn't agitate against a war on Iran. And why are you so obsessed with what "leftists" do with regard to Iran, since you never tire of pointing out how inconsequentially few of us there are in the U.S.?
