MEK-Israel role in the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientist

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said assassination of the top Iranian nuclear scientist was a grave crime, describing the terrorist act a manifestation of the enemies’ desperation against the Iranian nation’s scientific advancement.

Rouhani said during a phone call with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday hailed Ankara’s stance against the terrorist crime against the Iranian scientist, noting that killing the prominent nuclear scientist Dr. Mohsen Fakhrizadeh clearly shows the failure of the enemies before the Iranian nation.

“The method used in this assassination and by whom it was carried out are clear to us,”he went on to say.

Rouhani stressed that Martyr Fakhrizadeh spent most of his time in the last months in the battle against coronavirus and he completed research on production of diagnostic kits for the disease,

Murdering Iran's N. Scientist

Erdogan, for his part, said that this terrorist attack has surely targeted regional peace and calm.

He expressed hope that Iran will identify the perpetrators of the crime and will bring them to justice very soon.

Martyr Fakhrizadeh’s car was targeted by an explosion and machinegun fire in Damavand’s Absard 40 kilometers to the East of Tehran on Friday.

The nuclear scientist and one of his companions were immediately taken to a nearby hospital but he could not be saved.

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted on Sunday that the assassination bears all the hallmarks of the Israeli regime.

An informed source told Press TV on Monday that the remains of the weapon used in the Friday assassination of senior nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh show that it was made in Israel.

The history of Tel Aviv’s sabotage targeting Iran’s nuclear energy program is as old as the program itself.

Israel mek relation - iran nuclear scientist terror

Many observers believe Israel is not able to carry out such dangerous operations without the prior information and support of the United States which left a landmark nuclear deal with Iran in 2015.

Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Ali Shamkhani said that electronic equipment has been used in the “highly complicated” assassination of Fakhrizadeh, and further underlined the role of Israel and the anti-Iran Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, also known as the MEK, PMOI and NCRI) in the terror attack.

“Unfortunately, the operation was very complicated and was carried out by using electronic equipment and no one (terrorist) was present on the scene. But some clues are available, and the identity and records of the designer of the operation has been discovered by us,” Shamkhani said on Monday.

“Certainly, Monafeqin (hypocrites as MKO members are called in Iran) have played a role and certainly, the Zionist regime and Mossad are the criminal mastermind of this incident,” he added.

Early in 2018, the Israeli sources had acknowledged that Mossad had tried to assassinate an Iranian nuclear scientist, but its operation faile.

According to Fars News Agency, Mossad had gained access to Fakhrizadeh’s name via a UN list which referred to him as a senior scientist of Iran’s Defense Ministry’s Physics Research Center.

After the terrorist attack on Friday, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami underlined that assassination of Fakhrizadeh may not undermine Iranians’ resolve, and said revenge for the terror attack is already on the country’s agenda.

General Salami extended condolences to Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, martyr Fakhrizadeh’s family, and the Iranian nation over the martyrdom of Head of the Research and Innovation Organization of Iran’s Defense Ministry, Dr. Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, who was assassinated in an organized and pre-planned terrorist attack by the child-killing Israeli regime.

“The enemies of the Iranian nation, specially the masterminds, perpetrators and supporters of this crime, should also know that such crimes will not undermine the resolve of the Iranians to continue this glorious and power-generating path, and harsh revenge and punishment is on agenda for them,”the IRGC chief commander stressed.

Also, Ayatollah Khamenei in a message condemned assassination of Fakhrizadeh, ordering officials to take action to punish the masterminds and perpetrators of the terror attack.

“Mr. Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, a prominent nuclear and defense scientist of the country, was martyred by criminal and cruel mercenaries. The unique scientific figure gave his dear and precious soul in the way of God for his great and lasting scientific efforts, and the high position of martyrdom is his divine reward,” Ayatollah Khamenei said in his message on Saturday.

“Two important issues should be seriously put on the agenda by all relevant officials; first, probing the crime and the definite punishment of those who perpetrated and ordered it; and second, pursuing and continuing the martyr’s scientific and technical efforts in all the sectors in which he was engaged,” he added.

Ayatollah Khamenei also extended his condolences to martyr Fakhrizadeh’s family, students and the scientific society of the country, wishing him the highest position before God.

President Rouhani had on Saturday condemned assassination of Fakhrizadeh, vowing retaliation for the criminal act.

“All think-tanks and enemies of Iran should know well that the Iranian nation and officials are too brave and too couragous to leave this criminal act unanswered,” Rouhani said, addressing a meeting of the national coronavirus campaign headquarters in Tehran.

“The relevant officials will give a response to their crime in due time, and in addition, the Iranian nation is too wise and too smart to fall into the trap of the Zionists’ plot,” he added.

President Rouhani said that it seems some parties are after stirring chaos but “they should know that we are aware of their plots and they will not succeed in attaining their malicious goals”.

“The Zionist regime and those standing against Iran should know that the path of the country’s development and research will be paved rapidly” and a large number of other Iranian scientists like Fakhrizadeh will emerge to help, he added.

Iranian nuclear scientists have been the target of the western and Israeli spy agencies’ assassination attempts in recent years.

In June 2012, Iran announced that its intelligence forces had identified and arrested all terrorist elements behind the assassination of the country’s nuclear scientists.

“All the elements involved in the assassinations of the country’s nuclear scientists have been identified and arrested,”Iran’s Intelligence Ministry announced in a statement.

“A number of countries, whose territories and facilities had been misused by the Mossad-backed terrorist teams, have provided the Iranian officials with relevant information,”the statement added.

“Over the course of the investigations, all other elements behind the assassinations of the Iranian scientists Massoud Ali-Mohammadi, Majid Shahriari and Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan as well as Reza Qashqaei (Roshan’s driver) have been apprehended,”the statement read.

“Some of the perpetrators of the assassination of Dr. Fereidoun Abbasi, the current head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization, are among those arrested,”the ministry added.

According to the statement, Iran’s Intelligence Ministry had detected some of Mossad’s bases within the territories of one of Iran’s Western neighbors, which provided training and logistical support to the terrorist networks.

In the fifth attack of its kind in two years, terrorists killed a 32-year-old Iranian scientist, Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, and his driver on January 11, 2012.

The blast took place on the second anniversary of the martyrdom of Iranian university professor and nuclear scientist, Massoud Ali Mohammadi, who was also assassinated in a terrorist bomb attack in Tehran in January 2010.

The assassination method used in the bombing was similar to the 2010 terrorist bomb attacks against the then university professor, Fereidoun Abbassi Davani – who became the head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization – and his colleague Majid Shahriari. While Abbasi Davani survived the attack, Shahriari was martyred.

Another Iranian scientist, Dariush Rezaeinejad, was also assassinated through the same method on 23 July 2011.

In a relevant development in January, 2015, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) announced that it had thwarted an attempt by the Israeli intelligence forces to assassinate an Iranian nuclear scientist.

“In the last two years, the Zionist enemy (Israel) was trying hard to assassinate an Iranian nuclear scientist, but the timely presence of the IRGC security forces thwarted the terrorist operation,” Deputy Chief Liaison Officer of Flight Guards Corps Colonel Ya’qoub Baqeri told FNA in 2015.

The cult of Rajavi

Second letter of the CEO of the Iranian Nejat Society to CED

UN Committee on Enforced Disappearances (CED)
Petitions and Inquiries Section
Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights
United Nations Office at Geneva
1211 Geneva 10, Switzerland

Greetings and respects,
In your communications about the complaints of the families of the members of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK, MKO, NCR, NLA) against the Albanian government you have responded that:
“The Committee on Enforced Disappearances (CED) is the body of independent experts which monitors implementation of the Convention by the State Parties.”

The Republic of Albania is a State Party and has signed the Convention. So, the Convention does apply to Albania. It has been noted that all State Parties are obliged to submit reports to the Committee on how the rights are being implemented.

It should be noted that in accordance with article 31, a State Party may declare that it recognizes the competence of the Committee to receive and consider communications from or on behalf of individuals subject to its jurisdiction claiming to be victims of a violation by this State Party of provisions of this Convention.
The families who wrote to you and complained against Albania are doing so on behalf of individual victims of a violation by the MEK based in Albania which is hiding their loved ones and has disconnected their contact with the outside world, particularly their families.

You also suggested that “in addition to the reporting procedure, article 32 of the Convention provides for the Committee to consider inter-state complaints”.

Hundreds of complaining families preferably desired that the Islamic Republic of Iran would file their complaints collectively on their behalf, and they demanded so by writing to various authorities. But unfortunately it seems that the Iranian government is not so eager to spend time and effort on this subject.

You also demanded “information regarding exhaustion of available domestic remedies”. In all cases the families have written to various Albanian authorities and demanded any form of communication with their loved ones. Unfortunately all these letters and emails are left unanswered.

You might be aware that the Albanian government does not grant visas to Iranian citizens by demand of the MEK. Therefore, the families cannot travel to Albania in order to further try domestic remedies.

Once again I, on behalf of hundreds of suffering families who have sent their complaints along with relevant photos and documents individually, urge you to speed up the process of dealing with the files and find a means of communication with their loved ones who are forcibly disappeared in Albania.

Kind Regards,

Ebrahim Khodabandeh

The cult of Rajavi

Did MEK participate in the killing of Iran nuclear Scientist?

In the past days Mr. Meraji has filed a complain with French police against MEK activities in France. He claims that MEK misuse the French state in order to take humanitarian aid and use it to fund their jihadi camp in Albania.

Mr. Meraji who has been a MEK member and translator describes the cultish nature of MEK, their crimes in service of the Saddam Hussein in Iraq and their killing of innocent Kurdish civilians in Iraq.

They analyze the nature of MEK, brainwashing of their members and the ways how Maryam Rajavi makes her organization to survive as a jihadist organization.

To download the video file click here

They show the ability of MEK to create fake news against Iran in Europe. They explain how MEK creates fake news about fake ‘terrorist attacks’ against MEK by Iran. This is the case of March 2018 when MEK created a fake news about a terrorist attack in Albania which was not true.

The same should be the case of Asadullah Assadi and Emir Saduni who have been arrested in Belgium with fake charges created by MEK and used by the Trump administration to intimidate European governments to change their policies against Iran.

They discuss the possibility of the Mujahedeens’ participating in the killing of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh an Iranian academic and senior official in the nuclear program of Iran and show how the Albanian government which jailed dozens of Albanian Muslims under funny and fake excuse of terrorism, when it comes to MEK it is afraid to implement the counter-terrorism legislation since MEK tells to Albanians that we are people of Donald Trump, John Bolton and Rudy Giuliani and if you mess with us you mess with America.

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

When Iranians and Israelis Quarrel

Assassination
The well-organized terrorist attack on Dr Mohsen Fakhrizadeh nearly on the outskirts of Tehran, as well as the neutralization (killed or injured) of his escort of 8-10 people in 2 cars is a very serious event.

The situation is serious because the deceased was practically the head of the Iranian nuclear program, ie the equivalent of Openheimer in the Manhattan Project, or Igor Kurcatov for the Soviets or Zholjo Kyrisw for the French. Iran is not North Korea, where when Kim says that America is the devil, tens of millions of North Koreans in the choir say that America is the devil, but when this Kim says that America is like the tens of millions of North Korean “robots” in the choir, it means America is an angel.

Iran has a public opinion! It is such a public opinion that will hold the Iranian security forces accountable for this failure. The only way to avoid paying the bill of failure is for Iran (Supreme Leader Khamenei even promised strong revenge) to retaliate sufficiently for such a flagrant, public and insulting hit to national security. I emphasize that Iran is a country that takes national security extremely seriously.

Israel- Netanyahou - Iran scientists- nuclear

Judging by open sources, the killing was carried out by Israel’s Mossad using at least preliminary US CIA intelligence. The Israelis have maintained a “No Comment” stance on the killing, while the Americans have at least formally denied involvement in the killing. More and more information is being published in various media about the involvement of the MEK (Mojahedin-e Khalq) in this murder.

One of the many articles accusing the MEK of being accomplice in Dr Mohsen Fakhrizadeh’s death is also in this link: https://www.almasdarnews.com/article/new-details-revealed-about-iranian-nuclear-scientists-relationship-with-syria-hezbollah-hamas-report/. There are several dozen such articles, mainly in the minor media, accusing the MEK of such murders.

The geopolitical clash between Iran (Russia + China and possibly + Turkey) against Israel (US + Saudi Arabia + Bahrain + UAE) is a titanic clash. My homeland Albania is neither a world nor even a regional power. Albania is a small and relatively poor country, which even in the Balkans is a lightweight. To enter into a conflict of titans with a geopolitical and military weight like Albania (when neither side threatens the borders) is madness; at least an extreme megalomania! Unfortunately, my Homeland by sheltering the MEK (Camp Ashraf 3 in Manez) has become part of such a possible global clash between the two aforementioned camps.

When they came to Albania, the MEK were officially given refuge for humanitarian reasons as endangered persons. Outgoing Prime Minister Berisha, who received the first 200-300 MEK in Albania, officially promised in a conversation with the new Iranian ambassador to Albania, that these people (fewer than 200 MEK) would not be a threat to anyone. The subtext was clear that the MEK in Albania would simply take refuge, live, but would not carry out any political activity, not to mention online propaganda activities or even military sabotage! During the following years, when the Prime Minister of Albania was Edwin Rama, the MEK moved from the outskirts of Tirana (in rented premises) to Manez, where they set up a complex surrounded by a fence (a gated compound) guarded by armed guards from a private company.

The MEK spread its ‘metastases’ in Albanian politics, in the security services and to some extent in the Albanian judiciary more or less like the cancer cells which attack the healthy cells of the human body. Due to the coverage of prestigious international media, Camp Ashraf 3 in Manez immediately turned into an anti-advertisement for Albanian tourism. Then with the conversion of senior police officers up to the rank of director general, senior officials of the Albanian Secret Service (SHISH), mayors, MPs, deputy ministers and ministers (stooges) into the cell of a former terrorist (apolitical and stateless) like Maryam Rajavi, Camp Ashraf 3 became a real and present threat to the national security of my Homeland.

The MEK with virulent online anti-Iran propaganda, recruiting Albanians (mostly teenagers), establishing working contacts with Wahhabi individuals (involved in recruiting Albanians to send as cannon fodder to the Jabat al Nusra Front in Syria), in conjunction with every enemy of Iran, turned Albania into a “red rag” in front of the horns of the Iranian “bull”. Segments of the Albanian government and politics, turning into servile charlatans for the former terrorist Rajavi, went so far as to carry out almost every one of her orders, from making MEK dark operations possible through Rinas, the only civilian airport in Albania, to expelling the employees of the Iranian Embassy in Tirana as many times as Rajavi likes!

In conditions where there is reasonable suspicion and indications are that the murder of Dr Fakhrizadeh involves not just the finger, but also the hand of the MEK (so it is practically proven that the MEK has not given up terrorism such as the killing of high-profile characters), it remains to be seen how Iran will retaliate for this assassination. I reiterate that Iran is a country that takes its national security extremely seriously, quite differently from my poor homeland, Albania.

As the good Christian that I am, today I will go to the Church of St. Asti in Durres and light a candle and pray to my Lord Jesus Christ to protect the lives and health of Albanians, the property, goods and the blood of Albanians from any possible revenge of Iran. I pray to God that Albanians and their property should pay zero for the inferiority complex (viz the MEK) of the collaborationist elements in Albanian politics and the administration.

Albanians should not have to worry too much about paying the bills for a few dozen scum, who sit from morning to night licking the boots of a bloodthirsty former terrorist, who does not sit comfortably on her ass, but still because of the “liberation” of the people, wants to repaint her hands with blood!

I emphasize that the European Union, where we want to integrate, officially condemned the assassination of Dr Fakhrizadeh. Peter Santo, head of the Foreign Affairs Division (EU foreign ministry), on behalf of the EU, publicly denounced the act of such an assassination of a prominent scientist. Albanians have to choose between the official EU position and the bloody hands of Maryam Rajavi. I have chosen the EU for myself. I believe I have made the right choice!

Oh God, protect the lives of Albanians as well as their money, goods and property!

Nuclear scientist laid to rest as Iran vows to continue his work

Iran’s top nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh has been laid to rest three days after his assassination outside Tehran, with the country’s defense minister pledging to continue his work “with more speed and more power.”

He was buried at Imamzadeh Saleh mosque in Tajrish in northern Tehran’s Shemiran district on Monday after a detailed funeral ceremony was held in the morning.

The cortege began at the Ministry of Defense in east Tehran, with top state and military officials on hand to pay their respect to a man who played a leading role in bolstering Iran’s defense power and advancing its nuclear energy program.

An honor guard carried the casket containing his remains which reportedly received three shots during an ambush in a boulevard in Absard where assailants blew up an explosives-laden Nissan truck before targeting him and his security detail in a hail of bullets.

The remains of the weapon used in the assassination show that it was made in Israel, an informed source told Press TV Monday. The weapon collected from the site of the terrorist act bears the logo and specifications of the Israeli military industry.

Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence also said it had obtained”new leads”on the identity of the perpetrators and that the information”will be publicized very soon.”

At an outdoor portion of the Defense Ministry, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) chief Gen. Hossein Salami, the IRGC’s Quds Force head Gen. Esmail Qa’ani, head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran Ali Akbar Sahei and Intelligence Minister Mamoud Alavi sat apart from each other and wore masks due to the coronavirus pandemic as a reciter read several verses from the holy Qur’an.

Mohsen fakhrizade- iran nuclear scientists assassinated - israel - mek

A message was read out to the ceremony from Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, who has ordered officials to identify and punish the perpetrators of the crime and continue his scientific path with diligence.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has called on Iranian experts to preserve the scientific and technical legacy of slain nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.

Defense Minister Gen. Amir Hatami put his forehead against the casket and kissed it before addressing the ceremony, pledging that the assassination would make Iranians “more united, more determined.”

“For the continuation of your path, we will continue with more speed and more power,” Hatami said.

Hatami also called the nuclear arsenal of the US and the stockpile of atomic bombs Israel which is widely believed to possess at least 200 warheads “the most dangerous threat against humanity.”

The defense chief vowed that “no crime, assassination or act of folly will remain unanswered on the part of the Iranian nation.”

“We will certainly pursue the criminals to the bitter end. They should know that they will meet their comeuppance and the Commander-in-Chief’s imperative will be implemented,” he added, referring to the Leader’s order for punishment of the perpetrators.

Hatami said despite carrying out the assassination to further their gains, the enemies ended up suffering defeat in three areas by perpetrating the atrocity.

First, Fakhrizadeh’s assassination introduced the scientist to the world as a “great model for those setting their foot on the path of struggle.” For those, he noted, Fakhrizadeh now serves as a model for scientific endeavor, assiduity, and purity of purpose.

Secondly, the assassination acted to turn the enemies into “the most hateful” in the eyes of the Iranian people.

And thirdly, the incident only managed to improve the country’s resolve to realize its purposes and enhance its integrity. As a case in point, he cited a recent decision to double the budget allocated to the innovation center within the Defense Ministry, which Fakhrizadeh used to direct.

Hatami also reminded that the enemies had resorted to assassinating the scientist after not being able to muster the courage to conduct military action against the Islamic Republic during the four decades after the Islamic Revolution.

On Sunday, Fakhrizadeh’s body was flown to the holy city of Mashhad, where it was taken inside the holy shrine of Imam Reza (AS), the eight infallible imam of Shia Muslims.

‘There is no doubt that the Islamic Republic of Iran will give a calculated and categorical response.’

It was then transferred to the holy city of Qom for a visit to the shrine of Fatima Masoumeh, the sister of Imam Reza (AS) and to the mausoleum of the late founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini outside Tehran.

Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said the enemies had launched “a number of failed operations” against Fakhrizadeh in the past.

“This time, the enemy applied a completely new, professional and sophisticated method,” he said.

Shamkhani said “electronic devices” were used to remotely assassinate the scientist. “No individual was present at the site,” he said.

“The mastermind of this action is revealed to us, and the [MKO) hypocrites have definitely played a role; the criminal element in this act is the Zionist regime and the Mossad,”he said.

The Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) has conducted numerous assassinations and bombings against Iranian statesmen and civilians since the 1979 victory of Iran’s Islamic Revolution.

The anti-Iran cult was on the US list of terrorist organizations until 2012 when Washington removed it from the blacklist in order to use the group for acts of sabotage against the Islamic Republic. Major European countries, including France, have also removed the MKO from their blacklists.

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

The MEK’s footprint in the assassination of the Iranian nuclear scientists

The assassination of the Iranian nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh once more draws attentions to the long-time record of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO, MEK, PMOI, Cult of Rajavi) as a terrorist group that has been involved in numerous terrorist attacks against the Iranian political and military authorities and more recently the Iranian nuclear scientists.

In November 2012, following the assassination of at least five Iranian nuclear scientists between 2007 and 2012, the NBC News revealed that Israel and MEK were responsible for murdering Iranian scientists. The report of Opiniojuris reads:”Deadly attacks on Iranian nuclear scientists are being carried out by an Iranian dissident group that is financed, trained and armed by Israel’s secret service, U.S. officials tell NBC News, confirming charges leveled by Iran’s leaders.”

Mohsen fakhrizade- iran nuclear scientists assassinated - israel - mek

Besides, more evidences are found in the MEK propaganda websites. The group held one of its so-called press conferences in its Washington office last month.

There, Alireza Jaafarzadeh, the group’s propaganda figure, claimed that Dr. Fakhrizadeh was a”Revolutionary Guard commander”who supervised a site that is”building nuclear weapons”.

“Alireza Jafarzadeh, an NCR representative, said that a body called the Organization for New Defense Research (SPND) had expanded its work since Iran’s 2015 nuclear agreement with world powers (known as the JCPOA, Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) limiting its atomic program,”reported Iran International.

“Jafarzadeh said that the SPND, which he claimed oversees weaponization, was active at new site in Sorkheh Hessar, east of Tehran, under the supervision of a Revolutionary Guard commander he named as Mohsen Fakhrizadeh. Jafarzadeh displayed aerial images of this alleged new site, and of a second site at Khojir, near Sorkheh Hessar, that he said was producing ballistic missiles.”

One month after the so-called revelations, the deadly terrorist attack on Mohsen Fakhrizadeh recalls us the same pattern of MEK-Mossad collaboration, the NBC News has already exposed this fact. Numerous experts and analysts did not hesitate to point out to the MEK’s part in the assassination.

Reza Nasr, an international law expert from Geneva’s Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, tweeted a few hours after the terror attack:”The @StateDept revoked the designation of MEK as a FTO on the ground that it renounced to violence and had not seemingly committed acts of terror for a decade. MEK’s likely involvement in today’s terrorist operation in Iran should overturn that decision. #Fakhrizadeh.”In another tweet in Persian, he asserts that legal actions should be taken to relist the MEK as terrorist organization in case that its part in the assassination is confirmed.

How the assassination of Iran’s top nuclear scientist can sabotage diplomacy & start a war

Trita Parsi, the co-founder and Executive Vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft and the founder and former president of the National Iranian American Council also tweeted:”Israel has, however, used operatives from the Iranian terrorist organization the MEK in the past to conduct attacks in Iran. The MEK is the group that introduced suicide assassinations to Iran.”He correctly refers to the MEK as the first terrorists in the history of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Olsi Jazexhi, an Albanian historian, specialized in the history of Islam, nationalism and modernity is also a very motivated human rights activist interested to aid families of the MEK members who are not allowed by the MEK leaders to visit their loved ones in the group’s camp in Albania. Jazexhi does not deny the part of Rajavi’s group in the recent assassination.”Did Israel and Albanian based #MEK – #Maryam_Rajavi mafia assassinate the Iranian scientist #MohsenFakhrizadeh?”he tweeted.

Pouya Alimagham, a historian of the modern Middle East and specializes on Iran, Iraq, and the Levant, tweeted about the MEK’s reaction to Fakhrizadeh’s terror:”Notice how the #MEK cult members & leadership haven’t condemned or really said anything about the unprovoked assassination of the Iranian scientist. They’re quietly hoping they’ll be a war w/#Iran. They think the ends (achieving power) justifies the means (war & imploding Iran).”

Massoud Behnoud, a prominent Iranian journalist and writer and a critic of the Iranian government tweeted in Persian telling of his common sense about the part of the MEK in the terror.”Today, Israel has the tools of bluff and show-off but a naughty feeling tells me that the assassination of Fakhrizadeh the nuclear scientist is the work of Mujahedin. Or, at least they had a primary part in it

Although, the MEK claims that it renounced violence in 2002 and this claim was the base of the arguments that ended with its removal from the list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations of the US State Department in September 2012, investigations and evidences demonstrate that it has never renounced violence, at least not until a few days ago. The main proof is the message of the disappeared leader of the group Massoud Rajavi on October 2020 in which he promised to kill more of the Iranians and also reaffirmed the killing of 17000.00 Iranians so far.

Trial Or MKO Propaganda? False alarm in EU, Assassination in Tehran

An Iranian diplomat, who was arrested back in 2018 on the false charges of being linked to a bomb attack plot in the French capital of Paris, has refused to turn up for trial in Belgium.

In June 2018, Belgian authorities said that Iranian diplomat Assadollah Assadi had been arrested in Germany over suspicions of plotting a bomb attack on a meeting of the terrorist Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) in Paris attended by US President Donald Trump’s lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, and several former European and Arab ministers.

The authorities added that Belgian police had intercepted the suspect, along with a 38-year-old man and a 33-year-old woman, in Belgium with 500 grams of the homemade explosive TATP and a detonation device found in their car.

Germany extradited to Belgium the 46-year-old diplomat in defiance of Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations 1961.

Iran says its diplomat arrested in Germany on the false charges of being linked to a bomb attack plot in Paris enjoys full diplomatic immunity.

Dimitri de Beco, the Iranian diplomat’s defense lawyer, said he would be representing his client and that Assadi did not attend the court on Friday as he was seeking diplomatic immunity.

De Beco also added that the plaintiffs were turning the case into a political trial on behalf of the MKO.
The next session of the trial is scheduled to take place on Thursday and the court is then expected to adjourn its verdict before ruling early next year.

Amir Saadooni

Following Assadi’s apprehension in Berlin, the director general for Europe affairs at Iran’s Foreign Ministry met German ambassador Michael Klor-Berchtold to convey the Islamic Republic’s strong opposition to the arrest, detention and extradition of the Iranian diplomat and said the move was part of a manufactured plot by those opposing Iran-Europe relations and was planned by the MKO itself.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif also said that the claims about Assadi constituted a”sinister false flag ploy.”

The MKO has conducted many assassinations and bombings against Iranian officials and civilians since the 1979 victory of Iran’s Islamic Revolution. It notoriously sided with former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein during his 1980-88 war on Iran.

Out of the nearly 17,000 Iranians killed in terrorist assaults since the Revolution, about 12,000 fell victim to the MKO’s acts of terror.

The terrorist outfit was on the US list of terrorist organizations until 2012. Major European countries, including France, have also removed it from their blacklists. The anti-Iran terrorists enjoy freedom of activity in the US and Europe, and even hold meetings with American and EU officials.

Mohsen Fakhrizade assassiniation- iran nuclear scientists

Western and European countries have also kept silent about the latest targeted killing of Iranian physicist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh by terrorists in his vehicle in a small city east of the capital Tehran.

Prominent Iranian physicist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh is assassinated in a terrorist attack near Tehran, the Defense Ministry says.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry roundly condemned the terror attack, saying there were “serious indications” of the Israeli regime’s role in the assassination.

Fakhrizadeh’s name was mentioned multiple times in a presentation in 2018 by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during which he repeated baseless claims about the Iranian nuclear program.

Netanyahu described the scientist as the director of Iran’s nuclear program and threatened, “Remember that name, Fakhrizadeh.”

The Tel Aviv regime has made several attempts over the past years to throw a wrench in Tehran’s peaceful nuclear work.

The regime has been behind the assassination of several Iranian nuclear scientists. It has also conduced cyberattacks on Iranian nuclear sites.

Fakhrizadeh Terror – Israel – MEK – sabotage diplomacy

Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, a key Iranian nuclear official, has been assassinated in Tehran. While it’s unclear as of this writing who is responsible, Israel has assassinated numerous Iranian nuclear scientists in the past, but had, until now, been unable to get to the highly protected Fakhrizadeh.

Some Iranian reports claim it was a suicide attack, which would reduce the likelihood of Israeli operatives carrying out the attack, but the bullet holes in Fakhrizadeh’s car cast doubt on that.

Israel has in the past, however, used operatives from the the MEK — a cult-like Iranian exile group recently removed from the State Department’s list of terrorist organizations — to conduct attacks in Iran. The MEK was the first group to introduce suicide assassinations to Iran.

Mohsen Fakhrizade assassiniation

But Israel is a prime suspect for several reasons: It has the expertise and capacity, has done it before, and has a motive.

While it’s highly unlikely that Israel would have carried out the assassination without a green light from the Trump administration, a more direct U.S. role cannot be entirely discounted. The Trump administration has reportedly run several joint sabotage operations with Israel against Iran’s nuclear facilities in the past year and relied in part on Israeli intelligence in carrying out the assassination of Gen. Qasem Soleimani outside the Baghdad airport last January. Earlier this month, Trump himself reportedly raised the possibility of attacking Iran with his top national-security advisers, while it was just last week that the administration’s most prominent Iran hawk, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, well as leaders of Iran’s adversaries in the Persian Gulf, notably Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

In any event, conducting attacks in Iran has few downsides for Israel right now. Iran could lash out and spark a broader conflict that sucks in the United States, bringing about a U.S.-Iran confrontation that Netanyahu has long sought.

Or, if Iran sits tight to wait to deal with President-elect Joe Biden, the Trump administration is highly unlikely to impose any costs on other Israeli provocations.

Either way, the assassination (and other likely future attacks) will likely harden Iran’s position and complicate — if not ultimately cripple — the Biden team’s attempts to revive diplomacy. That serves Netanyahu’s interest as well.
ndeed, Tehran’s openness to post-JCPOA negotiations on missiles and other matters will likely diminish if Israel engages in renewed assassinations in Iran. In fact, the Obama administration condemned Israel’s earlier assassinations precisely because it knew the murders wouldn’t so much set back Iran’s nuclear program, as it would any efforts to negotiate a deal to curb it.

Assuming Israel’s responsibility and the Trump administration’s acquiescence, if not complicity, in additional Israeli provocations, we now find ourselves in a similar, but perhaps more perilous situation for the next two months — especially if Biden and his foreign policy team fail to strongly communicate that Israel will incur costs if it continues to carry out attacks inside Iran during the current interregnum.

As such, we should be prepared for a very bumpy ride pending Biden’s inauguration. And if it turns out that Israel was behind the assassination, there should be no illusions about Netanyahu’s desire to drag the United States into another endless war in the Middle East.

It’s also important that the American public take note of the broader pattern. From around 2002 to 2012, Israel pressed the United States to address Iran’s nuclear program. During that period, Washington obligingly imposed ever-tougher sanctions against Tehran and repeatedly threatened military action. But those efforts failed as Iran systematically built up its nuclear capabilities.

Then, from 2012 to 2015, the United States tried real diplomacy — along with the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, and China — culminating in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), widely hailed as the most far- reaching non-proliferation agreement ever negotiated, and by which Iran agreed to sharply curb its nuclear program. Despite those constraints, Israel declared its opposition and successfully pressed the Trump administration to end U.S. participation in 2018 and impose new sanctions as part of its “maximum pressure” campaign against Iran.

Predictably, a series of escalations since then has brought the United States and Iran minutes away from war, twice.

But still, the war that many in Israel and in the United States have sought has yet to fully materialize. And now that Biden has defeated Trump, those who want war, particularly in Israel, likely see their window of opportunity closing. Meanwhile, Israel is coordinating with Trump, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates for a flood of new sanctions designed to, again, at a minimum to sabotage Biden’s chances of restarting diplomacy with Iran.

If Israel was behind the assassination of Fakhrizadeh — which seems highly likely though not yet proven — it demonstrates the degree to which Netanyahu feels emboldened to undermine Democratic U.S. presidents with impunity and drag the United States into war.

U.S. strategic partnerships should serve to make the United States more, not less, secure. But that is where we are today with many American partnerships around the world. This will not change unless and until Washington decides to end its drive for military hegemony in the Middle East.

The cult of Rajavi

MEK and Children – Alan Mohammadi

She was only three years old when she lost her mother in the MEK’s operation against the Iranian border “Forough Javidan”. She was then sent to Europe in 1981 together with hundreds of other children of the MEK members. After ten years she was made to get back from Germany to Camp Ashraf, Iraq to allegedly visit her parents but actually to join the group’s so-called National Liberation Army.

Alan Mohammadi

Yasser Ezati who is also a child victim of the Mujahedin Khalq has some common memories with Alan from the time they were in Europe. “Alan was kept under severe mental pressure in the MEK’s residence in Koln, Germany,” he writes. “I remember that she used to scratch her fingernails on her hand to the extent of bleeding.

As a twelve-year-old girl she used to hang out with carefree nineteen-year-olds. I witnessed that she escaped from school. She started smoking by the age of eleven….” Yasser believes that Alan’s problems were caused by emotional deficiencies. “She did everything to fill her emotional holes,” he asserts.

Several defectors confirm that Alan did not like to stay in Iraq after he visited his father in Camp Ashraf. She asked the MEK authorities to let her get back to Europe so many times but each time they held brainwashing sessions to intimidate her to stay in the camp.

“She had requested to return to Europe, but she was faced with what is usual in the MEK,” Mohammad Karami a defector of the group writes. ”Several meetings were held for her. She was the subject of all brainwashing meetings called “Current Operation”. One day, I was driving to St. 100 in Ashraf, I saw Nasrin Masih the commander of Alan’s unit with two other women. They were beating Alan. She had kept her arms over her head to protect it from the knocks and kicks.”

Mental and physical tortures that was imposed on Alan by the MEK authorities finally resulted in her mental breakdown. She was 15 years old when she committed suicide and put an end to her life. Milad Ariaiee another defector of the group writes about Alan’s death: “In 2001, a unit of female members was charged with guarding the Eastern side of Camp Ashraf. The incident took place in the first watch tower…while her superior comrade had gone to bring food Alan used the opportunity to take her own life with her Kalashnikov.”

In a very detailed article about Alan, Nasrin Ebrahimi a female defector of the MEK writes: “Alan had a very disastrous life, from vagrancy in Kurdestan to homelessness in Europe. She had gone to the MEK’s school in Europe and had been adopted by a variety of Iranian and German families. She was abused as a child labor by the MEK both in Europe and Iraq. Rajavi victimized this 15 year-old girl for his own ambitions.”

Mujahedin Khalq Organization members' families

Pourabdollahi family complains to the UN Committee on Enforced Disappearances

Greetings and Regards
I am Fatemeh Pourabdollahi, the sister of Hussein Pourabdollahi. Hussein served in the army in 1986.

At that time, Iran was involved in the war with Iraq and Hussein was sent to war zones. There he was abducted and taken hostage by the MEK.

In his letters to us, he expressed his nostalgia for the family and He wanted to return to his family as soon as possible. however the MEK cult kidnapped him and since then we have been deprived of seeing him now for more than 30 years.

Hossein Pourabdollahi letter to his family during the war

The MKO cult is currently based in Albania and does not allow us to have any contact with Hussein. We are completely unaware of him.

Due to the corona (Covid-19) epidemic in the world, we are worried about Hussein’s health. The Albanian government is not cooperating with us either. We want to contact Hussein and pave the way for his return to Iran.

Please help us in this regard according to your authority.

Thanks,
Pourabdollahi family
Iran, Kerman province, Rafsanjan
