An Enormous Stink

"BKSH & Assocs., Burson-Marsteller's lobbying wing, is representing Radio Sedaye Iran (Radio Voice of Iran), the Beverly Hills-based network that advocates regime change in Iran," reports O'Dwyers. Former BKSH clients include Ahmad Chalabi and his Iraqi National Congress. In fact, BKSH staff for the Iranian account include the former INC/ Chalabi account head and the senior advisor to the 2000 Republican National Convention. While Radio Sedaye Iran says a U.S. invasion of Iran would "raise an enormous stink in the Moslem world," it says "the danger of Islamic radicals in Iran getting nuclear weapons is too great to ignore." The conservative think-tank American Enterprise Institute also works with Radio Sedaye Iran, in what London's Financial Times called "a new step in the efforts of the U.S. right to influence regime change in the Islamic republic."
