Iranian.com is a website of syndicated Iranian-related news.[1] The website has changed ownership over time,[2][3] and promotes Palestinian rights advocacy[4] and anti-regime change advocacy.[5]

When Javid, the original owner, started the website in 1995, he called it The Iranian (after The New Yorker).[6]

On April 24, 2012, Javid announced to his sponsors at PBS that he was pursuing a new venture,[7] and that he had sold his remaining shares to his partner, entrepreneur Saïd Amin.[8]

Saïd Amin appears to be on the board of the National Iranian American Council.[9]
