Being professional in the art of disinformation, MKO tends to apply fairly well defined and The Truth Behind MKO Disinformation Campaign observable tools in this process. However, the public in general is not well informed about the manipulated tactics and is often easily led astray by them. Either the advocates of Mojahedin Khalq Organization (aka. MKO/MEK/MKI/PMOI/NCR) do not believe in what they state and comply for a variety of personal or political interests voice or it is MKO’s skill that pulls their strings in the profession of forging mediums to be manipulated in its art of disinformation. Remarkably, not even media and law enforcement feel obligation to deal with these issues and for the most part, only the players themselves understand the rules of the game.

The group is preparing for another political event to hold in Paris on June 23 and is channeling all its propaganda apparatus into convincing supporters and sympathizers to have their share in the gathering. Of course, the advertisements need to be carried out by particular personalities at the behest of MKO to sound something especial. In a statement published under the name of Alejo Vidal-Quadras, a vice President of the European Parliament, he plays the role of a broker inviting others to participate in the gathering and is also tasked with two assignments to carry out: to highlight a gained a judiciary victory against the State Department, and to draw attentions to the ends planned to be achieved in the event.

Concerning the former he states “This should be considered a great victory, not only for the PMOI, a member organization of the political coalition, National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), but also for justice all around the world. We congratulate this victory to PMOI and NCRI, specially their members, supporters, and families in Camps Ashraf and Liberty and inside Iranian prisons, those who have suffered the most from this listing. (Bold lettering provided in the version released by MKO). The objectives of the gathering as he refers to are two: “First – Defend the rights of the residents in Camps Ashraf and Liberty who are one of the biggest assets for democracy in Iran’s future and to take necessary steps for their protection. Second – Recognize NCRI as a democratic alternative to this regime”.

Mr. Alejo is acknowledged to be the Vice President of the European Parliament and the President of the International Committee In Search of Justice (ISJ). So high-profile a personality should know, and he does know, that congratulating a halfway, unpromising court ruling, as no decisive decision is proven, means offering Maryam Rajavi consolation of a probable victory rather than a gained victory. However, she has already gained an absolute but unproductive victory when Mr. Alejo’s colleagues and fellow parliamentarian de-proscribed MKO from the EU list. So far none of the EU country members have changed opinion concerning the terrorist and violent potentiality of the group to help just now that it is mired in the dire need of cooperation from their part to send its expelled member to any of those countries.

Then, if removal from any terrorist list fails to warranty prevention of a human tragedy, as asserted by the group’s American and European pro-MKO activists, what is the use of all these attempts to annul another listing? If Mr. Alejo is really concerned about the violated rights of MKO’s members in Iraq and believes them to be a group of pro-democratic campaigners, as asserted in his statement, the best way to act, instead of inviting others to support by words, is to encourage and convince the EU country members, if he is known an influential weight amongst them, to make an active, positive move to end the predicament and plight of a cult’s victims in both Camp Ashraf and Liberty. Otherwise, we have to believe that all these ado for an organizationally drafted event is nothing but a widespread disinformation.

Neither MKO is concerned about condition of its members in Iraq nor cares about the international moves to solve the problem; it desperately attempts to survive a bankrupt terrorist cult. In fact, MKO’s disinformation is based on the truth of its members’ sufferings in the camps in Iraq. The warrantied humanitarian options are just before it but it is the sole party that protests and meets them with outright refusal. The right thing for Mr. Alejo to do, if he thinks MKO has developed any capacity for democracy, is to jolly its leadership into respecting the rights of the group’s members as a road to democracy and move them all to Liberty to be processed for refugee status as their universal, democratic rights.

Maryam Rajavi

Paris court summons MKO ringleader over terrorist activities

The French Ministry of Justice has summoned the leader of the terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), Maryam Rajavi, to a Paris court following investigations into her terrorist Paris court summons MKO ringleader over terrorist activities activities.

According to a report published by the Habilian Association on Sunday, the MKO ringleader has been handed a subpoena demanding her to appear in court and explain her involvement in terrorist acts, clear violation of human rights, self-immolation attempts by three MKO supporters in Paris to protest Rajavi’s arrest by the French counterterrorism force in 2003, as well as lawsuits filed against the MKO terrorist group.

The Habilian Association is an Iranian human rights NGO comprising of a group of families that have lost their loved ones in terrorist acts during the early years following Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Meanwhile, MKO defectors and the families of the Iranian victims of terrorism have staged a rally in front of the French Ministry of Justice building to voice their support for the ministry’s latest decision.

They were confronted by a number of MKO sympathizers. Security forces later intervened to disperse the crowd.

The MKO fled to Iraq in 1986, where it enjoyed the support of Iraq’s executed dictator Saddam Hussein, and set up camp near the Iranian border.

The group is also known to have cooperated with Saddam in suppressing the 1991 uprisings in southern Iraq and carrying out the massacre of Iraqi Kurds. The group has carried out numerous acts of violence against Iranian civilians and government officials.

MEK Camp Ashraf

Camp Ashraf a repository of MEK crimes

Habilian Foundation S.G. states that the reason behind the interruption of relocation process of MEK members to Camp Liberty[TTL] is that they are trying to extinguish their terrorist crimes being held at Camp Ashraf.

Referring to the interruption in the relocation process of Mujahedin-e Khalq terrorists from Camp Ashraf to Camp Liberty [TTL], Mohammad Javad Hasheminejad told Persian language Young Journalists Club on Saturday that since the fall of Iraq’s former dictator, the terrorist group has tried to destabilize Iraq and even made it unstable with terrorist ops when necessary.

Habilian Foundation Secretary-General noted that following the removal of US forces from Iraqi soil, the public pressure to expel the terrorist group’s members intensified.

“Efforts of the Iraqi people and government caused the international organizations to take action to expel the members of the terrorist group (MEK), but ringleaders of the terrorist group made effort to stall the relocation with their noncooperation.”

“During the past five stages, roughly 2000 members were transferred to Camp liberty [TTL], but now they are trying to keep the rest of the members in Ashraf Garrison by making false excuses.”

He further explained the reason behind the interruption in the relocation of other members that the notorious Camp Ashraf is a repository of (MEK) crimes and Munafeqin (Hypocrites, as MEK members are called in Iran) ringleaders are trying to destroy them in order to prevent their crimes from transpiring.

He went on to say that the process of expulsion of the remaining MKO members is currently suspended due to the noncooperation of the MKO leaders, even though the reports say that the next group will be transferred in near future.

“Americans examined the operational capability of MKO for creating unrests, schism, terrorist operations and internal conflicts,” added Hasheminejad. “Now, they want to put the capability into practice in Syria.”

In the end, Habilian Foundation Secretary-General quoted a former MKO member as saying that the terrorist group has allocated two battalions, each containing approximately 400 men, to stage terrorist operations in Syria.

He concluded that these measures indicate that what is going on in Syria is “apparent and imported terrorism.”

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

MKO Tasks 2 Battalions to Stir Unrests in Syria

The terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO also known as the MEK, PMOI and NCR) has tasked 400 terrorists with stirring unrests in Syria, head of an Iran-based rights disclosed on MKO Tasks 2 Battalions to Stir Unrests in Syria Saturday.

According to Seyed Mohammad Javad Hasheminejad, secretary-general of the Habilian Association – a human rights group formed of the families of 17,000 Iranian terror victims – the revelation was made by a highly trusted MKO veteran who used to serve the MKO ringleader, Maryam Rajavi, as her highly confided interpreter in top secret sessions with former Iraqi regime officials and US authorities.

Hasheminejad said he had informed Syria of MKO’s meddling during a meeting with Syrian Ambassador to Tehran.

Hasheminejad had told the Syrian envoy late in May that MKO is preparing itself to stage a massive terrorist operation in Syria.

"We hold proof and authentic documents showing an extensive and all-round presence of this terrorist organization in Syria. This terrorist grouplet is using all its possibilities to stage terrorist and sabotage operations in Syria," he said at the time.

During the meeting, Hasheminejad told Syrian envoy that the MKO has been acting as a US mercenary ever since the fall of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hossein in 2003, and added, "The US and some western countries have been supporting all those terrorists who stage large-scale sabotage operations in Syria."

He reiterated the United States’ destructive role in recent developments in Syria, and said, "The MKO has even produced many video clips against President Bashar Assad on Syrian soil and has been distributing these clips among the people."

The cult of Rajavi

MKO Kills Members Intending Defection

A defected member of the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO also known as the MEK, PMOI and NCR) disclosed that the terrorist group kills any member who intends to defect from the group by forcing him/her to take cyanide tablets. Maryam Sanjabi, a former ringleader of the MKO

"In 2003, a number of members announced officially and publicly that they wanted to defect from the MKO but they were killed by cyanide tablets at the direct order of Rajavi (the terrorist group’s main ringleader)," Maryam Sanjabi, a former ringleader of the MKO, told FNA on Saturday. She said that after killing the defected members, the MKO announced that they had been killed during a bombardment of Camp Ashraf, the terrorist group’s main stronghold and training center in Iraq.

Sanjabi, a highly trusted MKO veteran who used to serve the MKO ringleader, Maryam Rajavi, as her highly confided interpreter in top secret sessions with former Iraqi regime officials, said that she herself was tasked with studying their cases and, thus, holds detailed and accurate information in this regard. She mentioned that defection from the MKO was only possible during the years between 1986 to 1993, and said due to the fact that the MKO is run like a cult, no one has been allowed to defect the group from then on.

"From 1993 to 2003, the ringleaders told the members that those who intended to defect from the group, he/she should first be jailed in certain places and then be transferred to the horrendous Abu Ghraib prison," Sanjabi said.

Many former MKO members who have defected the group had also earlier revealed that the group’s ringleaders are using every means within their reach, including execution, to keep members in Camp Ashraf. The defected members revealed in 2011 that the main ringleader of the group, Maryam Rajavi, issues the execution orders personally and condemns to death all the dissidents who refrain from obeying her orders and all those who plan to defect from the MKO. According to the report, the MKO ringleaders have prevented the members of the group from meeting their relatives for the last two years in a bid to prevent their defection and escape from the camp.

The MKO, whose main stronghold is still in Iraq, is blacklisted by much of the international community, including the United States. The group started assassination of the citizens and officials after the revolution in a bid to take control of the newly established Islamic Republic. It killed several of Iran’s new leaders in the early years after the revolution, including the then President, Mohammad Ali Rajayee, Prime Minister, Mohammad Javad Bahonar and the Judiciary Chief, Mohammad Hossein Beheshti who were killed in bomb attacks by MKO members in 1981.

The group fled to Iraq in 1986, where it was protected by Saddam Hussein and where it helped the Iraqi dictator suppress Shiite and Kurd uprisings in the country. The terrorist group joined Saddam’s army during the Iraqi imposed war on Iran (1980-1988) and helped Saddam and killed thousands of Iranian civilians and soldiers during the US-backed Iraqi imposed war on Iran.

The MEK Expulsion from Iraq

MKO Facing a Dilemma in Iraq

MKO will eventually yield to the universal demand of fully relocation to the temporary transit center

The problem with Mojahedin Khalq Organization MKO/MEK is that it defines any made gesture of MKO Facing a Dilemma in Iraq humanitarian, goodwill or sympathy towards it as a granted statutory right that has to be recognized and fought for universally. The relationship between the group’s American advocates and the leadership, now led by the Paris-based Maryam Rajavi, has led both to pursue strategies that neglect the dire risks of sabotaging the agreed move from Camp Ashraf to the temporary transit center near Baghdad.

In fact, the UN and the State Department’s efforts to peacefully solve the humanitarian crisis of Ashraf residents is made difficult due to the MKO’s strong base of support amongst the sympathetic American supporters whose words are seized as recognized rights. In recent weeks, some former officials and politicians, many of whom admit to being paid by MKO or one of its many affiliates, have mounted a sophisticated media campaign accusing the UN and the US of forcing dislocation of the group to live in subhuman conditions against its will at the temporary transit center, an accusation the group badly needs to feed its propaganda machine and to refuse sending the remaining groups as planned.

However, MKO is dragging its heels waiting for a miracle to happen, but he is also reluctant to assassinate the opportunity that seemingly opens up following the closure of Camp Ashraf. Probably MKO will yield to the universal demand of fully relocation to the temporary transit center. That is at least for three reasons.

Despite still being officially considered a terrorist group, the US has sort of taken MKO under its wing, first by opening up a former US base in Iraq for its members to be settled until they are sent to a third country that might receive them. But as they cannot stay at the base permanently, and as they may not be welcome by a third country because the group is on the US terror list, the US may de-list it, and will possibly interfere to be settled in an allied country. The Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has already given the green light:

“Given the ongoing efforts to relocate the residents, MeK cooperation in the successful and peaceful closure of Camp Ashraf, the MeK’s main paramilitary base, will be a key factor in any decision regarding the MEK’s FTO status”.

Second, an attorney for MKO urged a three-judge panel on the US Court of Appeals to compel the State Department to comply with a previous order, and to make a decision on de-listing of the group in a timely manner. Robert Loeb, the State Department’s lawyer, argued that lack of total unfettered access to MKO’s base demands more deliberation and time to reach a final decision. Loeb argued questions still remain whether the group harbor weapons inside the base and thus retain the “capacity” to launch attacks. Once the base is completely emptied, a decision on MKO’s status could be made within 60 days after relocation completes.

That is the point even the curt considered when it issued the latest order giving the Secretary of State four months to issue a final determination or it would grant MKO’s writ of mandamus setting aside the FTO designation. The final part of the ruling clearly states that:

“We arrive at the four-month deadline in part because four months should allow enough time for the completion of PMOI’s move from Camp Ashraf, the monitoring of which the Secretary claims will be exceptionally useful for its determination, id. at 20-21, as well as time to complete the process of analysis, judgment and explication.”

Thus, anything depends on vacation of Camp Ashraf and the golden opportunity that is the key to its survival is just lies within the walls of transit center. Will it lose it for prolongation of a situation stuck in limbo in Iraq?

The MEK Expulsion from Iraq

Procrastination, the Fancied Chance of MKO

There is no formula to banish MKO’s procrastination that has delayed the process of transfer

The best way to get something done as easy as possible is to begin it in due course, but if you want to make an easy job seem mighty hard, just keep putting off doing it. Everything is ready according to already reached agreements to relocate the sixth group of Mojahedin Khalq Organization MKO/MEK members residing at Camp Ashraf to the Temporary Transit Location TTL near Baghdad. But so far there has been found no magic formula to banish MKO’s procrastination excuses that has delayed the process of transfer. However, MKO has no other option but to get past procrastination founded on ungrounded excuses otherwise it will be swimming against the current it has already set running itself.

There is not plenty of time for MKO and it is well aware of the fact that despite it is procrastinating, it will eventually have to actually submit to the transfer of the reminders. Massoud Rajavi, the leader of the group, in his message addressed to residents before the transfer of the third group, asked them to abide by the promises to be relocated to TTL; however, he never terms it transfer or relocation but “battle”: “today you have fought your first and second battles and two groups have already gone to Liberty. Now we are getting ready to fire the third big shot to send the third group. Congratulations!”

Thus, MKO considers the peaceful and humanitarian issue of relocation another battle that has to be fought to the end. And of course, a battle is not an easy job to accomplish and must be made as hard as possible for those on the opposite front. Asserted by the US officials even before the relocation began, who testified before the House Foreign Affairs Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, that efforts to peacefully resolve the standoff are being rebuffed by MKO leadership. The US Special Adviser on Camp Ashraf Daniel Fried also said “MEK leadership has impeded a refugee resettlement process and interfered with the UN’s ability to conduct interviews with individuals at the encampment”.

Calling it a battle or anything else, Rajavi has no other option but to let it be accomplished and all the residents be fully relocated to TTL because. Even those the group expects protection from voice that relocation of residents it is a humanitarian issue that should be made as easy and peaceful as possible to accomplish. In December 2011, Ambassador Daniel Fried, Special Advisor for Camp Ashraf for the State Department, made the cause clear and promised to monitor the process of the transfer: “Embassy Baghdad will visit former Camp Liberty on a frequent basis to provide robust observation. The US seeks a safe, secure, humane resolution. Our interest is humanitarian”. And the promise has been kept so far both by the US and UN as well as by the Iraqi government.

Immediately after that announcement, however, MKO advocates argued that the group should be allowed to stay at Ashraf beyond the agreement. And now, it has become evident that MKO is obstructing the process. The big impediment to the process is the group itself that turns a humanitarian issue into a subject for dispute and battle. That is how MKO defines “good will gesture” when Maryam Rajavi, living far from the regional afflictions and hardships of Iraq in the cool, luxurious comfort of her residence in France, agreed to relocate residents as a goodwill gesture.

Some say Procrastination is opportunity’s assassin. That is true from the angle that by refusal of transferring Ashraf residents MKO is assassinating their granted opportunity of regaining their freedom. But the group will also lose the opportunity of the promised immediate post-relocation interests atop of which stands its removal from the terror list. But there is none if MKO is expecting for the better. Although it is acknowledged that the MKO leadership can be helpful in reaching a humanitarian resolution, which he completely disregards, he has unilaterally resisted de-politicization of Camp Ashraf and grabbed at a vague, faint hope that procrastination is the fancied chance to retard the progress of losing members. He just keeps putting off complying to make it hard both for the insiders and outsiders.

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

Rewarding Israel’s Iranian terrorists MEK

"The Obama administration is moving to remove an Iranian opposition group from the State Department’s terrorism list, say officials briefed on the talks, in an action that could further poison Washington’s relations with Tehran at a time of renewed diplomatic efforts to curtail Iran’s nuclear program. The exile organization, the Mujahedin-e Khalq, or MeK, was originally named as a terrorist entity 15 years ago for its alleged role in assassinating U.S. citizens in the years before the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran and for allying with Iraqi strongman Saddam Hussein against Tehran." The lobbying that the report talks about is not by the group itself: the Israeli lobby is the one that has undertaken this lobbying on behalf of this group. Why? Because Mujahedin-e Khalq has been serving as an arm of the Mossad after they lost Saddam Husayn as their Godfather.

Iran

A nation that wants to live in peace

The story of the world power’s treatment with Iran in the contemporary era is a sad and heartbreaking one. The colonial powers have been all the time after imposing disgraceful A nation that wants to live in peace covenants and agreements on Iran to separate parts of the country’s soil and annex to that of theirs, attacking the country and killing its innocent citizens or depriving its people from their intrinsic rights and privileges.

Over the course past 100 years, Iran hasn’t invaded nor attacked any country. In such a turbulent and chaotic region as the Middle East, Iran has constantly been at the center of peacekeeping and peacemaking efforts and has regularly contributed to any genuine and legitimate peace initiative which the other countries in the region or other parts of the world have taken up.

Although it was attacked by the Ba’athist regime of the former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein who was unreservedly supported and financed by tens of European countries and the United States in 1980s, Iran has never resorted to violent and aggressive options to defend its territory and security. The Iranians who remember the unforgettable days of the 8-year "Holy Defense" know well that how pure and uncontaminated the defense of the young Iranians against the Saddam’s regime was. Saddam had used all kinds of illegal and forbidden war tactics against the defenseless nation of Iran, including illicit chemical weapons provided to him by the U.S., UK and other Western states which cost the lives of more than 100,000 Iranians, but in response, Iranians never turned to such inhumane, appalling and unconventional alternatives.

Robin Wright once revealed in his 2008 book "Dreams and Shadows: the Future of the Middle East" that the CIA estimated in 1991 that Iran had suffered more than 50,000 casualties from Iraq’s use of several chemical weapons, while today, the actual number of victims is estimated to more than 100,000, since the long term effects still cause casualties to this day.

It’s said that after the United States, the UK, Soviet Union, France and Italy were the most prominent procurers of weaponry, military training and financial assistance to Saddam Hussein in the years leading up to the Iran-Iraq war and during the years of war itself. In the same tough and intolerable years, there was nobody to assist Iran and they were simply the empty-handed Iranian youths who rushed up to the frontlines to defend the invaded soil of their country.

However, that war is ended now, and what remains in the memory of Iranians is the brutality of Saddam who massacred tens of thousands of innocent citizens with the complicity and connivance of the West.

Now, the United States and its client state, Israel, persistently accuse Iran of sponsoring terrorism, deliberately overlooking the fact that Iran has been continually at the forefront of fighting and countering terrorism and at the same time, a silent victim of the West’s state-sponsored terrorism.

The bloodthirsty terrorist gang, MKO, which has enjoyed the backing and patronage of the United States and its European cronies since the victory of Iran’s Islamic Revolution in 1979 is now seeking international support for finding a permanent residence after being sent away from the Camp Ashraf in Iraqi province of Diyala. The group is responsible for the lives of hundreds of Iranian citizens and tens of governmental officials and has proclaimed as its primary goal a regime change in Tehran with the support of Tel Aviv and Washington. The Western officials, for their part, have not hesitated to express support for the terrorist cult and in an effort which was an all-out declaration of war against Iran the European Union removed the name of MKO from its list of terrorist organizations in January 2009. Now, the U.S. officials are petitioning to persuade their government to do the same and give more room to MKO to carry out its anti-Iranian plans without being prosecuted as a terrorist organization.

And today, after the terrible years of war with Iraq and experiencing different plots and plans of the Westerners who seek to destabilize Iran at the expense of the life and security of Iranian nation, Tehran has come under escalating pressure over its nuclear program, being targeted with innumerable economic sanctions and war threats for simply trying to nationalize nuclear energy to be used for civilian purposes.

The United States and her allies, prompted by Israel are pressuring Tehran to give up its nuclear program or be penalized and even face graver consequences such as a military strike. And ironically, all of those who call on Iran to surrender its nuclear rights are owners of nuclear weapons who have used their atomic warheads on other nations or otherwise have threatened them that they’ll be doing so.

So, what’s the crime of Iranian nation who should be subject to all kinds of harassment and discrimination by the world powers and their allies? The answer is quite simple, while at the same time, thoroughly complicated and problematical.

Iran is a country whose history has been interwoven with peaceful coexistence with the other nations. Up to this day that you’re reading these lines, Iranians haven’t ever been considered a colonial power while in some junctures of the history they possessed the capabilities of becoming a colonial power. No country in the contemporary age can claim or testify that Iranians have plotted to undermine their security and stability. Iran hasn’t ever threatened any country with military expeditions to expand its ideology. The revolution of Iranians in 1979 was that of a kind of culture and religion. Iranians have always longed for living in peace and tranquility. It’s Iran’s independence and its non-alignment with the world’s superpowers that troubles them.

Today’s controversy over Iran’s nuclear program is an artificial and superfluous conflict on a dossier all aspects of which are clear and unambiguous. Iranians want to indigenize and nationalize nuclear technology, as they’re doing the same in other scientific fields such as astronomy and space, nano-technology, biotechnology, etc. That’s why the United States, Britain and Israel have mobilized all of their forces, including terrorist gangs such as MKO, to deliver a blow to Iran and bring the nation to its knees by derailing its economy, science, culture and history.

Iranians want to live in peace and this is what they have always called for. But, let’s judge fairly and equitably. How many enemies does Iran have, and what’s the reason behind these blind enmities? Isn’t it that Iran is becoming a peace-loving, peace-making superpower that’s challenging and rattling the bases of the Western powers’ supremacy and domination in the Persian Gulf and Middle East? Isn’t it that a nation with such a rich culture, civilization and history as that of Iran, threatens the pedestals and pillars of Western hegemony in the region and in the world?
