The Iranian 'Ahmed Chalabi' (the leader of the Defence Department-backed Iraqi National Congress) is Sohrab "Rob" Sobhani, an Iranian-American associated with the neoconservatives in Washington. Ledeen was reported by The Washington Post to be one of four advisers in regular consultation with White House strategist, Karl Rove. Ledeen and Sobhani recently established the Coalition for Democracy in Iran (CDI) to promote this regime change. Sobhani’s interests in regime change are very clear and very consonant with American desires. They are largely commercial. Following his graduation from Georgetown, he became head of a Caspian Energy Consulting, a firm dealing with the transport and sale of Caspian oil.
