“You should be deported”: Cruz smoke from former Iranian official of Princeton teacher
Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz, along with a former Iranian regime official, escalated his war of words, and he reportedly worked as a faculty member at Princeton University, making Jewish students uncomfortable amid global tensions.
Responding to a long post from the former Iranian ambassador to Germany occupying Hossein Mousavian, Cruz wrote: “I try not to be in the room with people who have connections with the murder of dozens of dissident terrorists.”
Cruz quipped: “Your book is unreadable and the only debate you should have is about DHS agents at the end of your deportation.”
Mousavian responded to a Fox News digital story, and Cruz called on Princeton to release him from the Middle East security and nuclear policy experts. Mousavian was Iran’s spokesman during nuclear talks in the 2000s.

Mousavian invited Cruz to debate him publicly so that the American people could judge the facts of the matter.
“If you do not accept this offer, I ask you to read some of the books and articles I wrote during my 15 years of academic work at Princeton University,” he wrote.
“You see, all of them are focused on establishing peace between Iran and the United States and have introduced a peaceful solution to the Iranian nuclear crisis based on the NPT, avoiding another devastating war that drags the United States into the Middle East, promoting peace, stability and security in the Persian Gulf, and allowing the Middle East free weapons to destroy large-scale weapons freely.”

The former Turkland official said he was arrested by Iran in 2007 and forced to leave the country in 2009.
Fox News Digital reached out to comment with Cruz, Mousavian and Princeton University.
Mousavian had previously expressed support for Hamas and Hezbollah and attended the funeral of terrorist Qassem Soleimani, who was killed in a first administration attack by President Donald Trump.

In 2023, Kentucky’s House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and now Florida’s chairman Aaron Bean wrote to Princeton in 2023, expressing concern about Mousavian’s tenure.
The letter expresses Mousavian’s “date of discovery in the German court” [it] A Greek restaurant in the capital is the headquarters of the assassination of four Iranian dissidents in 1992.
“Did Princeton consult with U.S. government officials to hire Mousavian?” they asked.
