Hassan Abbasi (Persian: ØØ³Ù† عباسی‎) is an Iranian political
strategist and an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps officer and head
of its think-tank ‘Center for Borderless Security Doctrinal
Analysis’. Abbasi is primarily known for his conspiracy theories,
and for delivering speeches on issues including economics, history,
politics and cinema.He was a jury member in 2011 edition of Fajr
International Film Festival and a lecturer in the 2013 International
Conference on Hollywoodism.U.S. Army Colonel Sean J. Corrigan, in a
2011 research project entitled "Exploitable Vulnerabilities of
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps", names Abbasi was one of
the two "key architects of Iran’s doctrine of asymmetric warfare",
along with Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari. Jahangir Arasli, an
Azerbaijani intelligence analyst, wrote in 2007 that Abbasi was among
those in charge of devising the concept of asymmetric response at Imam
Hussein University. Historian Meir Litvak states that Abbasi holds
anachronistic views and is among contemporary proponents of
antisemitic conspiracy theories in Iran.After Clifford May, Amir
Taheri has dubbed him “the Kissinger of Islam†in a The Telegraph
article, and also quoted an anonymous European diplomat in Tehran
saying "to Iran's new ruling elite, Abbasi is the big strategic
brain". In 2004, Michael Ledeen claimed that he serves as
"theoretician" in the office of Supreme Leader of Iran with a special
responsibility for North American affairs. In a paper presented by
Shmuel Bar, Rachel Machtiger and Shmuel Bachar at the Herzliya
Conference in 2008, Abbasi is deemed as one of the IRGC prominent
figures who "is said to be affiliated with Mesbah Yazdi... a supporter
of the Hojjatiyeh and of Ahmadinejad... one of the main contributors
to Ahmadinejad’s strategic thought".
