In the mid 1990s this gentleman had a huge falling out with the North
American and international Baha'i administration. He was
defellowshiped and thrown off the Baha'i roles for calling the Baha'i
authorities a bunch of crooks. He specifically accused the North
American Baha'i authorities of corruption and nepotism, and circulated
a series of indicting letters together with a whole range of documents
supporting his allegations to every Baha'i LSA (Local Spiritual
Assembly) in the United States and Canada he could get the address
for. I also received his letters but wish I had kept the file since
there was some good material in it.
Given his positions in the past, this is a man with rock solid
integrity who is not afraid to stand up to bullies and entrenched
elites. He is anti-Islamic, probably due to his Zoroastrian Baha'i
pedigree, and his father was murdered by the mullahs in the early
years of the revolution. Mehdi Abedi and Michael Fischer include a
chapter in their *DEBATING MUSLIMS: Cultural Dialogues in Post-
Modernity and Tradition (1990) * on his father.

I hope he wins the Florida gubenatorial race - next year (?). He would
be good, and also a win by him would be a providential slap in the
face to the Haifan Baha'i fascists who de-fellowshipped him for
rightfully calling them a bunch of crooks.
