The son of Rajavi

Mostafa (Mohammad) Rajavi, the minor child of Massoud, and Ashraf Rabiei, the first wife of Massoud, were taken to Evin prison in the clash of Musa Kiabani’s team house in Zaferaniyeh, Tehran, on February 19, 1981.
After a while, he was delivered to his grandfather in Mashhad, and after a while with much effort and energy, he left Iran and was taken to Paris.

Mostafa, who is about thirty years old now, went to school in France from childhood with his bodyguard. Then he was taken to Iraq. Unlike the daughter of Maryam Rajavi and Mehdi Abarishamchi (Ashraf), he was living in a villa provided by Saddam Hussein, in the military camp Ashraf. But he was not satisfied with his life there, and many times he tried to escape, which did not succeed and was prevented.
Mustafa and other teens living in the cult were dissatisfied with the conditions and cults affairs. However, the cult’s response towards their dissents was quite different. As Mustafa was considered as the leader’s son and others as simple members.

Mostafa was once the manager of sports on the Mojahedin TV and wearing the best branded clothes and shoes, He had a special interest in girls and women, which, of course, was a natural sense of human, but the point was that he was never found guilty or, like other teens, did not have to admit his sexual thoughts and tolerate others’ attacks at Ghusl sessions.

Mohammad Rajavi

Because in the MKO organization, Rajavi is a saint . After the fall of Saddam, and with direct support and direct involvement of the White House, Mojahedin forces were transferred to Albania. But Mustafa Rajavi went to Norway, where, under the name of Arman Rabiei, he became asylum seeker to hide from journalists and public opinion.

After speaking against the organization for some times and his disagreement with the thoughts of his father and the MKO organization, in order to satisfy him, the organization enrolled him at a private university (BI UNIVERSITY) with tuition of $ 45,000 in the law Field of Study in Norway.
They also pay $ 5,000 a month to him, apart from the money he receives from the Norwegian government for asylum.

The reason for the registration of Mustafa Rajavi in law Field of Study is that the Mojahedin intends to replace him with his uncle Kazem Rajavi and he would work for the MKO in the United Nations and international organizations.

But the general situation of Mustafa Rajavi’s allies was that, before the occupation of Kuwait in 1991, Massoud Rajavi decided to send children and teens to Europe, the United States and Canada. Dozens of teenagers were sent to these countries with counterfeit passports.
The pleasure of Rajavi “because of the idea of attacking Iran from the Kuwait maritime border” did not last long. Because, US coalition forces pushed Saddam out of Kuwait and brought a heavy defeat to the Iraq Presidential Guards. With the deterioration of Saddam’s situation in Iraq, Rajavi decided to return teenagers to Ashraf, because the youth did not join the organization much and the organization did not have any backing.
Except for a number of cases where MKO supporters did not turn these children back, dozens of teenagers were again returned with fake passports under the watch of Canadian FBI security officers from Canada to the United States and from the United States to Iraq.

In some cases, it was allegedly lied to a girl that your mother had cancer. When she went to Iraq, she saw her mother healthy and MKO kept her European passport. The girl had to stay in Iraq for several years because the organization did not allow her to leave.
These girls were held in separate sections and series of reports on the sexual relationship between the MKO leaders and commanders with these teenagers and young people, as a revolutionary marriage, was published or privately retailed. The living conditions of these girls were better than boys.

However, neither of these teenagers, both boys and girls, couldn’t continue their education. The organization kept them busy with daily activities and with the slogan of “This year, is the year of overthrown”, which was repeated from the year 1980’s, they dissuade them from separating the organization.
In a phrase, from the team of young people and children born and raised in Iraq, everyone is over the age of 25 now and almost none of them have university education. Many of them even do not know how to read and write at high school level.

The story of Mostafa Rajavi, is the political and ideological dichotomy of the leadership of the MKO, Massoud and Maryam Rajavi, and the classless monotheism society.
Massoud Rajavi and the leaders of the MKO repeated the slogan of classless monotheism society, justice and equality, and the right to education for all in the post-revolutionary era.
Mustafa Rajavi’s higher education is his right; Our critique is about deceiving the loyal forces and the oppression and abuses that in the name of the fight happened to the young generation In MKO military bases in Iraq and no one from the Rajavi cult responds to it.

Mohammad Rajavi alias Mostafa

Despite all these discriminations and better life condition of the Rajavi’s Son, still living under the cult practices is not easy. several times Mostafa tried to escape the MEK Camps in Iraq. After the group’s relocation to Albania, Mostafa separated the group and went to Norway.

However, the MEK do not leave him free to live his own way of life. In an action, for example, asked him to sign a letter against a separated person that in this letter, the separated member is introduced as an agent of the Ministry of Intelligence of Iran and he is accused of espionage, this is while Mostafa Rajavi has been separated from this group for some time and has strongly opposed and criticized the performance of this group. For this reason, he has sued the MEK and has filed a lawsuit in this regard.

Mostafa Rajavi describes this incident as follows:

I want to reveal about a dirty and illegal ransom to put pressure on me. Some time ago, the foreign employer of the company I work for, following a series of previous attempts to pressure me, sent me a letter asking me to copy and sign it. The text of this article was prepared by two well-known Mojahedin officials. One is Mohammad Mohaddesin, known as Behnam in the Mojahedin, and the other is Mohammad Sadat Khansari, known as Adib. In this regard, the letter that Adib sent to the employer and specified the lines of work for him, is available as a document.

In this letter, I was asked to write against Mr. Iraj Mesdaghi and introduce him as a mercenary. An act that was unacceptable to me. I will not call anyone a mercenary of the Ministry of Intelligence without a sufficient and court-friendly document. This has always been my position because I consider it immoral and it is against my principles.

Considering that this action was unacceptable and illegal in my opinion, I did not accept to do this signature and instead informed the syndicate about the matter. The syndicate officials, who had never encountered such cases in European countries, were very shocked by this action and it was unbelievable for them! For this reason, the syndicate’s lawyer sent a letter to Adib asking him to explain in order to better understand the matter. Until now, no response has been given to the lawyer’s letter. A case has been filed in court in connection with these illegal actions of the employer, which are carried out by taking direct orders from these two people.

Today, I want to address Mr. Mohaddesin and Mr. Khansari publicly: Mr. Khansari, Mr. Mohaddesin, who’s this dirty and illegal ransom? Why are you pressuring me through the employer to sign your statement? Don’t you, who have lived in Europe for nearly 30 years, know that this is immoral and illegal? Where in Europe and Scandinavia does an employer allow himself to get such a signature from his employee? Why didn’t you go directly to me and instead made the employer as a tool to put pressure on me? Please respond in front of public opinion if you dare!

Let me correct a point here. I have no connection with Mr. Iraj Mesdaghi and I do not know him at all. His positions towards the Mujahedin Organization are not my positions at all and I do not approve of them at all. Many of the things he says may be wrong, and baseless, but there is no reason to consider him a mercenary of the Ministry of Intelligence of the Islamic Republic. Doing so is against my principles.

I also have a word with the supporters of the Mujahedin. I have absolutely no intention of hitting and creating problems for the Mujahedin. I have nothing to do with politics, nor with the organization, nor with the opinion of the organization, and I also pray for each and every member of the Mujahedin. I am looking for a normal life away from controversy and useless noise. If you have been told something else, it is wrong and you can be sure that it is not true. But at the same time I have principles that I cannot deviate from. How the Mujahedin treats its critics is up to it, but it has no right to force me to follow them in this regard. Such an expectation is unreasonable, immoral and illegal. To this day, I have tried to resolve issues with reason and logic so that it does not lead to futile conflicts and does not take energy from me. Unfortunately, no result was reached and the court was forced to intervene to solve this problem. The syndicate’s lawyer has now filed a complaint with the court, and the date and time of the court hearing have been determined. I will keep you informed of further developments.

Important Note: Due to personal issues that can be understood by all dear compatriots, I refuse to mention the name of the company and the place of work.

Now a question rises that how a group whose members are fleeing from this group due to high internal pressure can claim democracy? Upon further examination of the group’s performance, it can be concluded that instead of the word democracy, it is better to attribute the word dictatorship to this group, a word that is perhaps the least adjective that can be used to describe the inner space of this cult. An atmosphere that has become difficult for most members of the group to bear.

The customs police authorities and the Italian Guardia di Finanza have seized 3 vials of the Astrazeneca vaccine that were being illegally transported from Italy to Albania. 3 vials of Astrazeneca that are equal to 18 doses of vaccine, were found in a refrigerator bag in the possession of two drivers with German documents, but of Iranian origin, who were traveling by ferry line from the port of Bari to Albania.
The Iranian drivers are Abdolrahim Orangi Asl and Ghassem Farhadi, 69 and 73 years old, who were traveling in a “Volvo” car on the “Aurelia” ferry to Durrës, ORA writes. The vials are of the ABW4330 series expiring in July 2021. [ note– Abdolrahim Orangi Asl is a veteran MEK supporter ]
An investigative process has been launched against this event. According to prosecutor Luisiana Divittorio, efforts are being made to find out what happened.

Albania Police

-Who ordered the vaccine?
-Who enabled their receipt?
-Why were they arriving in Albania transported by citizens of Iranian origin?
These questions are expected to be answered by Italian investigators. The serial number contained in each vial will help find their origin. The two drivers have been reported for robbery and illegal traffic and are being investigated at large. While three vials of Astrazeneca vaccine have been seized.

The cult of Rajavi

Where’s the world’s largest nursing home?

An Albanian citizen who, on the condition of anonymity, wrote a brief description of his several-hours visit from the camp of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ the Cult of Rajavi) in Tirana, Albania:
I quickly wore my suit and my shoes and walked; we had to visit the camp of an opposition group of the Iranian government. Some people inside this city came to accompany us. They spoke English fairly well, but sometimes because of their age, they forgot some words and phrases.

However, we went with them and after leaving the city we reached a pretty farmland on the edge of Tirana. The cars stopped at the entrance door of a new camp, and an obese woman, who was wearing magnifying glasses and her face was full of wrinkles, came to us. The cars crossed a few niches and a new building and stopped at a meeting hall. Our group was welcomed by some of the Iranian group officials and we were led into the hall. I got into the hall behind them.

When I looked at the audience, I was a little surprised. The current population was men and women dressed in tidy clothes, but the average age was 60-70years.I could clearly see facial wrinkles, hairless heads, fallen shoulders, humpy waists, hearing aids in the ears and glasses on their eyes. Particularly when they laughed, spilled teeth of some of them drew my attention. In order to escape this old man’s space, I spoke slowly in the ears of the group’s head: “As you talk, I’m going to look around”. I went outside the hall to visit the complex.

MEK Camp Ashraf 3 in Tirana

One of the Iranians who was younger than the rest of them, came to accompany me. The construction was still underway, but as I turned my eyes, I saw no child, nor a teenager nor a girl nor a boy. I asked my companion who really was watching me, “Where are the little ones and the beautiful girls”? He told me: “we do not have children and we are all single here”. We decided to separate women from men and not to reproduce to fight better! I looked at him with amazement and I went to a hall where they were dormant and I looked at it from the window. Large photos of Massoud and Maryam Rajavi were installed in the wall. Wheelchairs, walkers, canes, pills and medications, diapers and … were things that at first glance drew attention. Some were sleeping on the beds, and some were sitting on their wheelchairs; several people were watching the television set on the wall. The man gently took my hand to the other side of the field. A little car crossed us, while a white-haired man was crying in the back seat. I asked him about the cause, He laughed and showed his head with his hand, and said, “It is a forgetful one …he had Alzheimer. He usually loses many times throughout the day. In Iraq he was a tank driver, but now …”

MEK Camp Ashraf 3 in Tirana

It was really getting interesting.

A little bit farther, several middle-aged women wearing head scarves were sitting on a bench under the sun light. Several of elderly people were walking and exercising near them. We walked toward them. My companion said something in Farsi to them and they all laughed. Their facial wrinkles were very noticeable. I asked one of these old women: where are your families? He answered with a loud voice: “My husband and I, 40 years ago, sent my only son to my father’s house in Tehran, saying that we were going to Iraq and returning soon. But the fight was long. My parents died, my husband died in Iraq and we buried him in the pearl cemetery. One of my relatives in Baghdad, died in Liberty, and I was recently discharged from the American Hospital in Tirana. I’ve been hospitalized for 3 months, and several parts of my body have been under surgery, I’ll probably die here as well. With saying that, tears flowed from her eyes.

MEK Camp Ashraf 3 in Tirana

Another lady sitting there stared at an unidentified point, and during my coming and going, there was no change in her condition. I asked again: Are you in contact with your family? Do you have a telephone connection? Will they come to visit you? She shook her head and said with the same loud voice that “we have nothing to do with anyone and anywhere at all”. The third woman with a rough voice said: “But I do not like it here, it’s like sadness of the world is all here, I was very much alive, but this last stroke…” And with her hand, she also pointed to her swollen leg and continued: “My brother’s son was with us in Iraq, but when we arrived, he fled with his friend and went to the UN refugee camp in Tirana.”

I got off of them and with using my phone’s internet I searched for the American Hospital inTirana, which she had told me. I found interesting things and it turned out that a large number of their patients are members of the same group who carry a lot of physical and psychological problems.

During the time that was left, I visited the area and several buildings. There was no sign of laugh and hope in the faces. All the people were mournful, depressed like they are waiting for their death. After about an hour I returned to the group. The tour was almost over. The people around the visitors were slightly different from the members I saw; they were a bit younger than people I’ve seen.

Of course, this was sort of a show that the organization had arranged for us. Then they took us to the hall, where almost 100 people attended. Some of the exciting musicals that they called revolutionaries were played, so that everyone in the hall was even excited. Even a few elderly people were very emotional. This condition reminded me of the survivors and veterans of World War II camp.

On the way back, I said my own impression of what I had seen at Camp Tirana and the plight of 2,500 people living with them, and I also said that in my opinion there is only one description for that place and that is a “nursing home”, perhaps the largest nursing home in the world. I would certainly be sending a Guinness Representative here for the global registration if I can. One of my companions listened to me and asked: “Is making the hearts of these old men and women happy a bad thing??You think that the money spent on them, is for them to fight? no, it’s just to keep them alive. Behold! Here is a faraway exile.”

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

MEK in Albania, will it repeat the fate in Iraq?

When the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) was first relocated in Albanian territory in 2013, public opinion was instigated about the group. Rajavi’s cult was perhaps the first organization that had entered the country as a refugee, and was able to take up a place for the deployment of its members, from the very beginning. They had some special issues unrelated to normal refugees such as restrictions on cross-party visits to the city, restrictions on contacts with people outside their camps, uniformed clothing, the absence of any children among 2,000 men and women and etc…

By passing time, a number of members of the group left the group. The number of defectors has mounted to over 500 to this date. The disclosures on the human rights abuses inside the MEK that were made by former members and the fact that the group was listed as a terrorist organization by the European Union and the US Department of State, were was the reasons of the Albanian people’s cautiousness towards the Cult of Rajavi.
Besides, Americans’ support for the relocation of MEK members and the pressure on the Albanian government to receive members of the group, ultimately raised questions for the people of the country. Questions that were drawn to reports in Albanian newspapers and Internet websites, such as why these people were expelled from Iraq? Why does America act as a supporter of this group to resettle them? And if this group claims to fight against the Iranian regime, why they will not continue this fight in their country or around the Iranian borders?
The clashes of members of the MEK with defectors in the streets and daily news of the death of members of the group in the so-called Camp Ashraf three, increased the sense of danger regarding the group’s presence for the people Albania.

With the rise in the demands and questions by the people, which pushed the Albanian government to respond especially to the media, the group’s leaders began to take actions to reduce the concerns. These actions began with news and articles published in some Albanian media. Also, the group’s plans for communicating with Albanian people included the invitation of journalists and groups to have limited and controlled visit of their camp, free medical services to neighbors of the camp in Manez and providing a small financial assistance for certain people. This, of-course added other questions to the previous questions: What such refugee groups have such facilities or why and how do they provide such services?!

Under the orders of the leaders of the MEK, there were other activities to reduce the complication of the agenda, including the teaching of Albanian language to some members of the group in order to connect with people in the society as a direct advertising space to show off the group as an innocent entity to Albanian people.
However, with all the efforts of the MEK –which was like an operation for the group in Albania– a sense of distrust and danger was left for the people of this country about the presence of this formerly designated terrorist group with a dark background of terrorist acts and cult-like violence cult. They began to express concern at the stage of political demands to the Albanian government. In fact, today, the request for the expulsion of the members of the Cult of Rajavi from the country, along with demands such as political, economic and social problems of the people, are demanded from the government and the parliament of Albania.

In another words, the same fate that a decade after the collapse of Saddam Hussein happened to the MEK in Iraq, is waiting the group in Albania. The experience has shown that the awareness of people and then their demands to expel this intruder from their soil, as it happened in Iraq, will leave no other way for the Albanian government than the expulsion of the MEK

But this time, if the leaders of the organization are forced to relocate, it can be said with certainty that they will sign the decree of the complete collapse of their organization, because the experience of the other members will not allow them to once again decipher, deceive and resort to another grouping. This time we have to wait for the defection of the majority of the rank and file of the group in Albania, which means the loss of about two thousand forces of the cult of Rajavi.

Iran Interlink Weekly Digest

Iran Interlink Weekly Digest – 287

++ All comments in Farsi have been about the MEK’s silence during Israel’s massacre of Palestinian civilians and destruction of vital infrastructure in Gaza. Most reactions conclude that the MEK don’t have anything to say for themselves. The cult is so mercenary that they can’t speak for themselves anymore and merely repeat and amplify what they are paid to say. The MEK is purely a click farm. Some compare the current silence with that followed the death of Massoud Rajavi. Again, the same thing has happened inside MEK: members are banned from talking or asking questions about Israel, just as they were/are banned from asking about Massoud Rajavi. When the MEK say ‘banned’ it means members will be severely punished, whether by shunning or being subjected to mass humiliation meetings. Some commentors point out that when the MEK arrives at this kind of deadlock situation, the only diversion left is to attack families and ex members. This week, former MEK member Ali Shirzad posted a note to say: ‘Before, you used to threaten to kill me. Now you threaten to set me up so I’ll be deported from Europe. This threat is clearly not directed at me because you know you can’t do this. It is directed against your own pathetic members in your camp in Albania. But I couldn’t stop laughing when I came to realise that the one who is threatening me is the one who herself has been deported from Europe, Maryam Rajavi.’ Other comments point out that as a mercenary force, the MEK has become like an old tool that Americans don’t want to throw out. They have enough room in the garage. Sure it’s an old tool, but it has sentimental value for the warmongers – like granny’s old sewing scissors, they just can’t throw it out.

++ While looking at Israel and Gaza and the MEK situation in Albania politically, some comments point out that the other side of the coin is the human rights of the people. The politicians only want to see profit and loss and sometimes they make a mistake – they forget the cost of human rights abuses by using these tools which in the long run comes back to haunt them. Examples are Al Qaida and Taliban. There is no profit in the long term from ignoring human rights.

++ Today, after eleven days, Rajavi said that Hamas – which according to the MEK means Iran – started the fight with Israel by firing rockets. (Nothing about the attack on the Al Aqsa mosque or the threats of evictions in occupied Sheikh Jarrah.) According to Rajavi, ‘Israel was forced to retaliate and kill a few Hamas militants’. This is as much as MEK has had the go-ahead to say. However, this was not posted on the first Farsi or English pages of the MEK sites, revealing that they were forced to say something, but what they said was not in Rajavi’s favour. The danger is that MEK members who remember the MEK’s history of collaboration with the Palestinians – from Yasser Arafat to Mahmoud Abbas – are now questioning this change of side to support the Israeli Zionists against the Palestinians. This is reminiscent of the change from anti-Imperialist struggle to hosting Neocons from America in the MEK rallies.

In English:

++ The total absence of MEK activity in the English language sphere is, as one Farsi commentator pointed out, evidence that for America, the MEK has become a defunct tool; not worth paying to hold rallies or make speeches or try to get to Paris for a publicity photo. Maryam Rajavi and her acolytes can only sit it out and wait. Meanwhile, in Albania, on a weekly basis, MEK members are dying from COVID-19, old age and illnesses.

Mujahedin Khalq as an Opposition Group

MEK Intelligence gathering on journalists

Members of the Mujahedin Khalq (MEK/ MKO/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) in camp Ashraf three, Albania, have been tasked with gathering intelligence on journalists via telephone.

The new order from MEK leaders to increase the focus on telephone intelligence gathering from reporters and journalists was issued after photos and news were leaked from inside the group headquarters in Albania. The group’s leaders appear to be seeking sources of this disseminate news and images within themselves.

Therefore, the TET unit of Camp Ashraf, tasked with telephone intelligence gathering, is tasked with finding phone numbers of news outlets media activists and their relatives calling them in order to collect information, a regular basis. Calls from the MEK agents in Europe, in particular from Albania, focus mainly on media reporters who publish news material on the MEK camps in Albania.

cyber terrorism by MEK

The MEK agents use a new hardware that make these calls include Iran numbers on reporters ‘phone screens to avoid journalists’ suspicions about the calls as much as possible. However, such telephone numbers do not exist in Iran’s mobile operator networks.

The MEK agents call under the cover of a government official or an affiliate of a government agency and express gratitude for the inserted content about the MEK in Albania! Asserting that more information is needed, they try to find sources of the news and information.

Although most of the MEK’s efforts to discredit the information have been unsuccessful, it has increased the need for journalists to be vigilant and well-informed about the methods of telephone intelligence gathering.

Mujahedin Khalq as an Opposition Group

MEK leaders and the illusion of overthrow

A series of popular protests (of 2017-2018) in Iran, on economic issues, created the illusion for the leaders of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MEK/ MKO/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) that the overthrow of the Islamic Republic of Iran is close.
In this regard, the leaders gathered members and held a general meeting and read the message from Massoud Rajavi (who has been disappeared since 2003). It was emphasized that “with the rise of social uprisings and the formation of resistance units, along with the inflation of prices and economic issues, the Islamic Republic would be overthrown by February 2019, and the group would be welcome by Iranians’ with greetings and salutations and the group would put Maryam Rajavi on the throne of the presidency.

The baseless words of the terrorist leaders of the MEK can be considered from a number of perspectives:

First, the internal economic protests can be considered a natural occurrence in any country. At times, perhaps because of the current international developments, a country like Iran, in contrast to various hostile powers and under intense pressure from enemies, has been placed in a difficult situation and face shortcomings. The Increase in deficiencies and different requirements of life will provoke protests and with the elimination of shortcomings, conditions will return to normal. It should be borne in mind that Iran is a wealthy country that, thanks to its rich domestic resources, has the ability to overcome economic problems and control the situation.

Second, it seems that the leaders of the MEK have no knowledge of the international developments and capacities of the Iranian diplomacy system. They are unaware of the fact that the Islamic Republic of Iran has open and secret capacities in the political arena and international relations and if the conditions get hard and difficult, then based on logic and rationality, Iran will use all its capacities to preserve and secure the national interests and security of the country.

Third, for many years, the leaders of the MEK, with the promise of the overthrow of the Islamic Republic, have been able to sustain their nature and provide continuity for their political survival. But now, after forty years, they have not achieved their goals yet. The leaders of this terrorist organization even told their members that the recent protests in Iran were signs of the overthrow of the government.

Maryam Rajavi in Albania

Of course, the imagination has been futile. That’s why the organization has faced a domestic crisis in recent months, and many members, disappointed with baseless promises, began to protest and even some escaped from the Albania’s camp. Apparently, as the situation worsened, Maryam Rajavi has stayed in the camp and tried to maintain internal coherence holding a series of ideological meetings to prevent domestic defections.
Rajavi tries to keep hope alive within the group with the slogan of “overthrow is Close” and to prevent the beginning of possible riots. She announced the February 2019 as the time of the collapse of the Iranian regime. February 2019 was a serious test for MEK leaders.
Definitely, after the failure of the test, the MKO leaders had to wait for the internal crisis to emerge. The deceived members of the organization had no motive for staying in the organization. They do not see any necessity to stay in the group while the leaders promise never come true.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization's Propaganda System

Who are the MEK targets in cyberspace?

Regarding the deceitful recruitment techniques of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi), the record is very long. In the late 1980s the group lost its ability to attract cooperation. In fact, several thousand assassinations in the streets of Iranian cities, in addition to collaboration with Saddam Hussein in the eight-year war between Iran and Iraq, led to the group’s serious unpopularity among Iranian public and eventually the recruitment process became very difficult for of the MEK with its extensive record of violence and terrorist acts.

Therefore, the MEK recruiters used human smugglers to dispatch their forces to the neighboring countries of Iran. Turkey, Pakistan, the UAE, and even European countries such as Germany, were places where human traffickers went to immigrant Iranians or even travelers to deceive them to join the MEK. A large number of MEK’s current members and defectors were recruited by the MEK agents who promised them a dream life in Europe via joining the MEK in Iraq!

Years later, with the expulsion of the group from Iraq and its relocation in Albania, the new project for the MEK leaders was to escalate chaos and sabotage in Iran. In order to allegedly destabilize the Iranian government, they try to find operatives inside the country, and this time in the social networks and cyberspace. The techniques are similar to those of the 1990s In Turkey and the UAE.

The MEK agents who communicate with users inside the cyberspace, in one of their most widely used ways to identify and recruit individuals, they set up pages and groups with general topics in order to monitor reactions and comments from social network users. This way they select their targets.

Leaked photos showing MEK members at work

As an example, in Telegram, they observe the comments of users in different groups exploring their reactions to political and social issues. After engraving a social problem, such as abuse, inflation, unemployment, and so on, one has to examine the reactions of the people in the group. Then, they choose their targets among them. Any criticism of the system or government is considered as an opportunity for the MEK agents to deceive their targets through a process of communicating with individuals, sometimes in the course of a few months, in order to use them for further operations.

The Space of Instagram, YouTube and Twitter is also the MEK’s full-time activity place, in which they insert contents against the Iranian government in a variety of political, social, economic, cultural issues and other fields, with diverse literature tailored to various types of age and political opposition. This is the result of their precise observation of the individuals’ reactions are trying to trap them.

Observation of posts and content published by individuals on social networks, behaviors and interests of each person in cyberspace are also other mechanisms of the MEK to choose their targets. In some telegram channels, robots are used to detect and identify subjects that are relevant to the agenda of the MEK. These robots have the ability to examine the hashtags, keywords, or even the user’s intruders in a massive way, and have been programmed to quickly detect content against the system and then introduce them to the MEK agents in the cyberspace.

MEK’s targets are usually selected from among the lower aged groups, since people under the age of 20 usually have the slightest familiarity with the records of the crimes of the group and particularly its betrayal against its own country fellowmen.

A simple search by users in the cyber space, or consultation of an elderly can basically make the youth aware of the threat by the side of the MEK as a terrorist cult. However, the MEK agents are skillful in manipulating their targets. When they introduce themselves as members of the MEK, online presence on the social network becomes their priority to guide their target in such a way as he or she asks all questions and ambiguities from the MEK agents. Deceived targets have entirely confessed that MEK agents have repeatedly stressed that if they have any questions, they should ask themselves!

Unfortunately, the lack of appropriate consideration paid by families to their children’s activities in cyberspace and social networks, risks the life of their children. This is partly because of the parents’ lack of familiarity with the practices of the MEK in cyberspace, too. MEK, in its turn, uses the ground to launch its fraudulent activities.

The cult of Rajavi

Family is taboo except after death

In human society, family is a group of people related either by birth or affinity. The purpose of families should be to maintain the well-being of its members and of society. It is the essential element and the fundamental pillar of society; and many societies in the world regard the protection and support of the family as their fundamental principles, since the decline or rise of each society is closely linked to the inner situation of each family.

On the other hand, the formation of a family is one of the basic rights of every person. This right, like other basic rights such as having a job and choosing a place of residence, is inevitable, and nobody can deny this right from another.

The above-mentioned statements are perfectly rational and acceptable to each audience. It is even surprising to everyone that, in the twenty-first century, leaders of a small society violate these logical principles. Today there are sects out there that deny this simple principle. They oppose the foundations of family.

Among destructive cults, the Cult of Rajavi (MKO/ MEK/ Mujahedin Khalq/ PMOI) has escaped the principle of family , forbidding the foundation of family as its fundamental organizational principle.

Family in the MEK Cult

In fact, family is a strange word which is scarified in the cult-like regulations of the MEK. Rules such as compulsory marriage, forced celibacy, forced divorce, separation of children from parents, the sterilization of women, and many other components represent the violation of family rights by the MEK.

However, family turn out to become useful for the MEK leaders. In December 2018, one of the most famous MKO members, Mohammad Seyedi Kashani, in the Garrison of Ashraf 3 in Albania, died because of his age.
At the time of his funeral in the cemetery of Ashraf, the famous fringe occurred; the presence of people with flowers. They showed up as Seyed Kashani’s family. Perhaps, the most remarkable fringe for the ceremony was a paper on which it was written “family”. In the pictures of two women with flowers, moving to the grave of the man; you will find that one of them is Shohreh Moghadas, the wife and the other one, the daughter of Seyedi Kashani.

But why is the name of the family surprising to the audience? The answer to this question should be sought in the history of the MEK. After the heavy defeat the group in the “Eternal Light” against Iranian border, Massoud Rajavi called the operation as an “insurance letter” for the management and reduction of members’ protests for the failure of “Forough Javidan” and its heavy casualties for the organization.

All members were blamed for the failure. People got stuck in the “Chahar zebr” Strait (a location of a horrible battle in the operation), because of thousands of straits in their minds! And in fact, their “monotheism” was incomplete because they had to think about the leadership in their minds and they should not depend on anyone else in terms of emotional affairs and considered the interests of a husband and wife as partners and the members should only be interested in their leader, Massoud Rajavi.

These arguments were the introduction to another “ideological revolution” known as the “divorce revolution”. To control individuals, Massoud Rajavi considered the only factor in the failure of the organization to be an individual’s affiliation with the family and, in order to counteract it, sought to oppose the “individuality and gender” of the organization, and then members of the organization took a divorce and even insulted each other. Seyedi Kashani and Shohreh Moghaddas were not excluded from this and were obliged to obey Massoud orders, in addition to having a child. Shohreh Moghaddas went to France in March 1993 with Maryam and no longer returned to Iraq, and daughter of Seyedi Kashani was taken to Iraq in 1991 in a sectarian movement.

This is a story of the lives of many people who have been condemned to death in the Rajavi cult, and see their being excluded because, contrary to the principles of nature, in this sect, only death can be a factor in forming a family. When you observe Seyedi Kashani’s burial video, you are more likely to realize the reality of the secularism of the MKO. A woman and girl who have been for years not allowed to meet with their other family members, and only permission, is to attend the funeral. It is possible that if Massoud Rajavi, the head of the terrorist cult of the MKO, was presents on that day, he would condemn and blame the woman and daughter for expressing their kindness and grief.

Former members of the MEK

I am ready to testify in any court of justice

Malek Hozhabr, 47, is from Roodbar, Gilan. He was a young boy, in his twenties, looking for a better life when he went to Turkey.

In Turkey, a recruiter of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) called Ali Ankara came to him. The first visit was not fruitful for the recruiter but he insisted and repeated his suggestion several times promising Malek and some other Iranian young men to help them immigrate to Europe via Iraq. Malek and two of his friends finally admitted to go to Iraq.

In 2002, they arrived in the MEK’s headquarters in Iraq, Camp Ashraf. Malek found out that he was on the wrong path as soon as he arrived in Ashraf. He expressed his dissent and asked to leave the group but he was not allowed. Instead, he was threatened to be delivered to Iraqi Intelligence Ministry. “I was constantly under pressure and forced to attend brainwashing meeting,” Malek says. “They wanted me to give up.”

After the American invasion to Iraq, Malek escaped Camp Ashraf and went to the American camp and from there he and two other comrades, named Heidar and Nasser succeeded to escape to Erbil, in Iraqi Kurdistan, where they were arrested by the security forces. The judge court listened to his testimony about his experience in the MEK and released him.

In 2005, Malek was able to return home after three years of being a hostage in the MEK. “As a victim of the Rajavi’s suppressive system, I am ready to testify in any court of justice,” he says.
