The Mujahedin’s cult should evacuate Ashraf Camp as soon as possible

The second letter of Iran-Pen Club to the officials of United Nations High Commissioners for Refugees (UNHCR)

Respectfully

If you remember, around 4 months ago on 20 September 2011 , the Iran Pen Club in an open letter addressed to UNHCR showed its appreciation to the UNHCR decision to accept the refuge requests of the pmoi victims who after 20 to 30 years could finally submit their refuge request to this international organization and we welcomed your decision for accepting their refuge requests in clear and transparent form. But we also announced that the leaders of this cult are going to struggle against this historical decision of UNHCR which has respected the rights of these people individually and we mentioned that they will disrupt this decision by creating obstacles and hurdles . In that letter we, with consideration to the positioning of the pmoi leadership , mentioned that :

“…. After issuing of the UNHCR statement , the human rights activists and the critics of this organization warned that the pmoi by utilizing any possible facility will create obstacles to prevent carrying out of the UNHCR statement and Maryam Rajavi the wife of the spiritual leader of this group issued a statement in France that:

“…. We do not permit the decision of the mercenaries, Maliki and Barzani , as interview with each individual to go ahead….”

And in continuation of these fruitless endeavors , she says

“ all the people of Mujahedin must go for their interviews by helicopter ….” And this means that it takes 7000-S of flying for the interview of these pmoi stranded captives , taking and returning them , and all those things are part of the obstacles and problems which have been created by the highest rank of this organization to prevent implementing of the UNHCR plan. the pmoi leadership’s reaction which is mentioned above , has concerned and worried deeply the human rights activists because we think that the leadership of pmoi has begun its efforts to prevent getting out of this dead-end…..”

Now ,after the end of the year 2011, and signing the pmoi resettlement contract and in the beginning of transferring the people from the Ashraf concentration camp to the Liberty camp and despite very good situation which has been begotten for UNHCR to implement and carry out its responsibilities and tasks , the leadership of this organization ,by variety of unreal excuses and pretexts that the Liberty camp does not have the standards required , are not willing to go to the Liberty camp.

Fortunately based on the announcement which was issued in the official site of UNHCR on 31 January 2012 in Baghdad , Mr. Martin Kobler , the special envoy of the UN secretary general , announced :

“…. With many thanks to the UNHCR and human rights team for their efforts to make the Liberty garrison ready , quoting the officials of UNHCR and UN-human rights , he said that the infrastructure and the facilities of the new camp in Iraq for the residents of Ashraf is par with international standards and according to the agreement which last month between UN and Iraqi government for voluntary relocation was concluded , this camp is ready…….”

The same announcement reiterate that the pmoi reasons and reasoning in this regard are baseless completely, on the other hand Mr. Martin Kobler has announced that :

“…..the agreement is the only peaceful solution for voluntary relocation of Ashraf residents and it is very important that the agreement is observed word by word in action…..”

He also added : the constant position of UN is that the violent outcome is unacceptable . the concluded agreement opens the way for UNHCR to determine the refugee status which is the first and necessary step for resettlement In other countries to benefit from freedom and liberation…..”

Honorable officials of UNHCR

As you have observed that the signed agreement between UN and Iraqi government has paved the way seriously for determination of the refugee status for all those pmoi stranded victims and in a safe and secure perimeter far from all pmoi forcible organizational laws , the people can freely submit their reasons and requests.

It seems that your official intervention can be a serious help in this regard and it can overcome all the pmoi leadership’s excuses , pretexts and decisions. We are urging you to force pmoi to stay devoted to its own commitments which officially accepted and signed in front of the UN representative and in this regard they should accept all the consequences if they do not accept and reject the concluded agreement.

Surely ,while pmoi finds out that the lawful competent organizations have found out about their unreal excuses like the announcement of the UN representative concerning to the camp liberty which is par international standards , the maneuver and domain of this terrorist stream will be reduced and they will not be able to force their victims to accept their cultic thoughts.

The practical experiences in front of the leadership of this organization has shown that decisiveness and political juridical pressure have a very good impact to neutralize and thwart the pmoi totalitarian leaders’ plans which want to convert the peaceful plan for determination of the pmoi victims ‘ refugee status to the Massoud and Maryam Rajavi’s violent and bloody solution .

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

The threat is very real

The U.S. has been at war with Iran through its proxies for years, including the Kurdish militant nationalist group PJAK─blamed for numerous attacks in Iran─and the Al-Qaeda affiliated Sunni group Jundullah that carries out suicide bombings and other destabilization attacks in Iran.

We are in very dangerous times, and we have to do everything we can to prevent another war—this time against Iran. Almost every day we hear about new sanctions, new threats, new promises that “all options are on the table.” It seems like the general public is complacent about this and do not understand the severe consequences –possibly World War III.

Before the war on Iraq, there was a huge outcry from the general public. After Obama got elected, the voices of protest have mostly been silent. Is it because people don’t want to criticize Obama? Did Obama’s election victory divide the progressive community? The war on Iraq was looked on as a Bush/Republican effort. Those in power today are continuing Bush’s war plans stronger than ever. Where is the outcry?

Iran IS threatened, and the U.S. continues to push the screws even tighter. U.S. policy toward Iran for the last three decades has primarily taken the form of economic sanctions, threats and isolationism. The U.S. is involved in a covert and proxy war.

The covert dimensions of the war are being fought by Intelligence assets, cyber attacks, computer viruses, secretive military units, spies, assassins, agent provocateurs, and saboteurs. The kidnapping and assassination of Iranian scientists and military commanders, which started several years ago, is a part of this covert war.

The U.S. has been at war with Iran through its proxies for years, including the Kurdish militant nationalist group PJAK─ blamed for numerous attacks in Iran─and the Al-Qaeda affiliated Sunni group Jundullah that carries out suicide bombings and other destabilization attacks in Iran.

There is another group, MEK, an Iranian exile group who fought with Saddam Hussein and against Iran during the Iran/Iraq war (when the U.S. provided arms to Iraq).

MEK─ Mujahadeen-e-Khalq─ is officially listed by the State Department as a “terrorist organization,” but politicians have been pushing to “de-list” them so MEK can be armed, trained, and sent into Iran, with open, rather than covert American support.

Former U.S. officials taking part in MEK-linked events told the Christian Science Monitor that they received substantial fees, with contracts ranging up to 100,000.00. Rudy Guliani, Howard Dean, Tom Ridge, Wesley Clark, Gen. Peter Pace have all been paid for endorsing MEK.

This all smacks of hypocrisy, as our local activists had their homes raided, personal belongings confiscated, were served subpoenas to a Grand Jury, and are being investigated for “material support of terrorism” even though their real “crime” is exposing U.S.-sponsored atrocities in the Middle East and other parts of the world.

Iran has a wide spectrum of reformist and democratic groups that are all against U.S. intervention in Iran’s internal affairs. The Obama administration is having a hard time finding any Iran-based political groups to work with, so it is working with groups in exile, like MEK or Iranian monarchists, who are very unpopular with the people in Iran.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

Azerbaijan envoy: MKO, PJAK’s ideology oppose to ours

Azerbaijani Ambassador to Iran Javanshir Akhundov denied any support from the country for the Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO)terrorist group. Azerbaijan envoy: MKO, PJAK's ideology oppose to ours

He said, “MKO’s ideology is based on Communism and Marxism which is in opposition to ours.”

“Why should we help PJAK? This group stands against our ideology,” said Javanshir Akhundov in response to a question about his country’s stance on MKO and PJAK terrorist groups, Habilian Association (families of Iranian terror victims) database reported.

He further explained that this group is “the enemy of our friends, Iran and Turkey. What is our interest in supporting them?”

Denying any Azerbaijan’s support for MKO terrorist group, Akhundov said that “MKO ideology is based on Communism and Marxism which is in opposition to ours.”

“Communism and Marxism brought about a lot of damages to Azerbaijani people; we do not accept them (in Azerbaijan).”

Azerbaijani Ambassador to Iran went on to say that," Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization members are living at a camp in Iraq, from which they are increasingly escaping to other countries.”

“Approaching one or two of them to the UN office in Baku is not enough to raise objections against UN office.”

He described all the news and analysis regarding the acceptance of MKO and PJAK by Azerbaijan as “falsification”, adding there is no reason for protecting MKO and PJAK by Azerbaijan.

Iraqi Authorities' stance on the MEK

Senior Iraq MP: Iraqi Govt. not recognize Maryam Rajavi

The leadership of the coalition of state law and lawmaker Abbas al-Bayati refused any decision of the government to conduct negotiations with Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK, also MKO, PMOI) leadership. Senior Iraq MP: Iraqi Govt. not recognize Maryam Rajavi

“Iraqi government negotiates with governments not organizations and groups,” al-Bayati told Al-Baghdadia TV. “Political parties or groups have nothing to do with our government, and our relations are within formal frameworks.”

“Our decision regarding the MEK has been made based on our territorial integrity,” he added.

The Iraqi MP went on to say that they will be transferred to another location and “we’ve facilitated their departure to third countries.” “Those who are willing to return to Iran will be provided with necessary facilities.”

Al-Bayati made reference to Rajavi’s recent remarks regarding her willingness to negotiate with Iraqi government and said, “Iraqi government does not recognize Maryam Rajavi, Mujahedin-e Khalq leadership.”

“Mujahedin-e Khalq is an organization which has been used under the Baath regime of Saddam Hussein for political reasons not humanitarian causes,” he continued. “It had been also used as leverage to pressure Iraqi nation in regional conflicts and now we, in New Iraq, do not intend to use leverage against any countries. Thus, we consider them as strangers and not as a group; they must follow Iraq’s laws and regulations.”

Asked if the UN is supervising Camp Liberty, al-Bayati said, “No, the camp is under the control of Iraqi government and (the camp’s control) has nothing to do with the United Nations. “Iraq came to the decision to provide the UN with the reports of the camp, and also let them visit the camp.”

Al-Bayati referred to MKO’s involvement in the 1991 crimes in Kirkuk and Tuz Khurmatu regions and said that these crimes “must be viewed from a legal perspective.”

Earlier on Thursday, Maryam Rajavi expressed her willingness to travel to Baghdad and negotiate with the Iraqi government in the presence of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations in Iraq.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

MKO preventing release of its crimes on media

Daniel Da Cruz serving as the Deputy Permanent Representative of Luxemburg to the United Nations Office at Geneva told Habilian that Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK, also MKO, PMOI) infiltrated MKO preventing release of its crimes on media into the media committed to magnifying and engaging in (propagating) the goals of the group.

“It is astonishing to see some European parliamentarians support the Mujahedin-e Khalq, while it has assassinated twelve thousand Iranians,” said Deputy Permanent Representative of Luxemburg to the United Nations Office at Geneva, Daniel Da Cruz.

“Plenty of European Parliamentarians are not aware of various dimensions of MKO crimes,” Daniel Da Cruz told Habilian.

“Mujahedin-e Khalq has infiltrated into the media committed to magnifying and engaging in (propagating) the goals of the group.”

“They are financially supported by MKO to prevent its crimes being published, therefore, many of the Parliamentarians are being deceived by the cult as a result of their lack of information on the nature of the group.”

He emphasized the necessity of revealing the unknown aspects of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK, also MKO, PMOI) more than before by publishing numerous documents and evidences, adding “I will disseminate the information through media for the public enlightenment of my country.”

MEK Camp Ashraf

Camp New Iraq residents and the determination of their refugee status claims

• UNHCR has been for some time and remains ready to undertake verification and refugee Camp New Iraq residents and the determination of their refugee status claims status adjudication for the residents of Camp New Iraq (formerly Camp Ashraf) who are persons of concern. It has mobilized teams on the ground, and has put in place the necessary soft and hard ware support capabilities. Individual interviews will need to take place in a safe, neutral and confidential location.

• The stipulation of the Government of Iraq remains that these processes take place outside Camp New Iraq, in the new location which is being provisioned to enable the residents voluntarily to move there and to stay on a temporary basis in safe and decent conditions. UNHCR has been advising on the technicalities of improving the camp infrastructure.

• UNHCR attaches utmost importance to peaceful solutions being found, including that any relocation outside Camp New Iraq proceed on a voluntary basis, with freedom of movement the most desirable state at the site of relocation.

• UNHCR is currently looking at how to expedite verification and RSD processing so as to enable it to be done on an individual basis fairly, fully but also speedily, in the interests of gaining time against tight deadlines.

Background

• Camp residents who have submitted requests for refugee status are formally asylum seekers under international law whose claims require adjudication. In the absence of a national system of adjudication in Iraq, UNHCR will consider these requests on an individual basis in a fair and efficient procedure. Each individual case will be judged on its merits and in accordance with international law.

• International law requires that asylum-seekers must be able to benefit from basic protection of their security and well-being. This includes protection against any expulsion or return to the frontiers of territories where their lives or freedom would be threatened (the non-refoulement principle).

• UNHCR, together with the Government of Iraq, UNAMI and other concerned actors, remains committed to finding solutions to this long-standing problem, including resettlement and/or relocation to third countries.

Germany

A cult like Mojahedin Khalq poses serious threats to Germany

PMOI (Rajavi’s Cult) , the serious threat of the sects and sectarianism in Germany

We speak with the politicians and elected and honorable parliamentarians of Germany which do not allow the people like Maryam Rajavi who is ruling the notorious and brainwashed cult( Rajavi’s cult) take advantage of the principles , rules of law and frameworks based on democracy and freedom in your country , Germany ,and they convert the Germany to a place to propagandize , propagate and further their cultic objectives.

Obviously , this fact is announced and expressed by people who some of them had been living more than 20 years of their lives in this notorious cult so they are fully familiar with their dangerous cultic behavior and objectives and they are experts and reliable and credible witnesses in recognition and analyzing of this cult ,as a result of the importance of these separated members and for closing their mouth to prevent revelation of the real essence of this cult ,the leadership of this cult has announced the death decree of all those separated members and critics since many years ago and they have begun destroying their prestige and personalities by variety of fake and hollow labels and false accusations which have been made and produced in the cult headquarter in Auvers sur Oise which their reaction obviously substantiate the credibility and justness and competence of those separated members and the critics of Rajavi’s cult who have stood up bravely against their deceit , deception and demagoguery and consecutively reveal the real dangerous essence and content of this cult.

As we all witnessed the horrifying self immolations of some members of this cult in some European countries specifically in France in 2003 which all were under direct supervision and order of the cult headquarter in Auvers sur Oise . during those self immolations some of those members died horrifyingly . in our opinion this inhumane act had a special and specified massage for all European countries and their politicians which this cult and its leadership utilizes all kind of inhumane solutions for reaching to its cultic objectives by all means, obviously the people who set themselves on fire just by an order , they have the potential of the destruction and annihilation of others as well and they can carry out their dangerous , violent and fatal actions in any European countries just by an order against the interests of that country.

The history and background of the violent and terrorist actions of this cult is not covert for any European and American countries. The cult ,which began its terrorist actions in 70’s by assassinating the American military advisors in Iran ,and during past years by direct cooperation and collaboration with Saddam Hussein and his government in suppressing and killing the Iraqi revolutionaries who were willing to topple Saddam Hussein dictatorship as well as the blind and causeless killings of Iranian citizens and civilians , they carried out their role and share in this subject perfectly.

We ,the separated members and the critics by complete recognition of the real content and nature of this cult and its leadership who cunningly and by spending millions Euros are taking maximum advantage of the democracy and freedom existing in European countries to reach to their objectives ,urge all European politicians and parliamentarians not allow the leadership of this cult by depending on the 2 principals ,democracy and freedom existing in those European countries, propagandize and propagate its sects and sectarianism and they contaminate your soil like France to their violent sectarianism .

In better recognition of the real nature of this cult , we the separated members and critics are willing to fully cooperate in informing all European officials and politicians and we announce our readiness for fully cooperation in recognition of this dangerous and fanatic cult.

All the best

Human Rights Abuse in the MEK

MKO cult leader, imposes conditions for releasing his hostages

The respected MeK dissidents nowadays have reported receiving letters from Ashraf residents who are seeking to exit the camp but they have problems, the most important is the thorny MKO cult leader, imposes conditions for releasing his hostages treating of the MeK leadership.

Rajavi has declared to the forces who sought departure that if they announce that they are”frightened”,”desperate”, and”regretful of fighting with the regime”, he would let them to leave the camp through three ways:

1. Betimes he introduces them to an Iraqi police station.

2. Each individual’s family to come and remove him/ her.

3. After lifting the siege and in possible time, they would be allowed to go out to everywhere, provided that until then they must totally adhere to the organization and avoid”putting obstacle”.

For all these scenarios, MeK leadership has put the condition that exit accomplishment depends on”not being contaminated and associated with the regime”. However, he had already designated Iraqi police and the families as the Iranian government’s agents that attending them is an unforgivable sin and is deserving execution.

It means that the forces who seek departure actually have no option except choosing the third way and waiting until the leadership decides to evacuate the camp. Up to that time, based on the commitment to the group, they have no right to protest (or what is called”putting obstacle”in the cult).

Also, MeK supervisors in Camp Ashraf are fantasizing insecurities and risks that threaten each of the forces outside the camp, in order to expand the Atmosphere of inanition and panic of going out.

Now, it seems that MeK leadership instead of alarming the troops about the enemies, who are standing in lines at the Ashraf gates, should struggle with the force uprising within the gates.

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

Prof. Foote: MKO promoting hatred of Iran

Paul Sheldon Foote, Professor at California state university, Irvine, made his comments on the Mujahedin-e Khalq terrorist group in an interview with Habilian. Prof. Foote: MKO promoting hatred of Iran

He pointed out that Mujahedin-e Khalq is a useful tool for the Israelis “by promoting hatred of Iran, by telling lies about Iran, and by conducting terrorist operations in Iran.”

“Israel can always deny any knowledge of or support for these activities,” he continued.

In response to question about the supports for MKO from the West, namely, the United States, Sheldon Foote said, “Most Americans do not even have passports. They have not visited Iran. It is easy for the MKO to lie about supporting democracy.”

He made reference to the supports for MKO done by some members of Congress and stated that they “can receive thousands of dollars.” “Some political leaders have made trips to Paris and France paid by the MKO.”

He went on to say that the MKO receives some of its funding “from the American and Saudi Arabian governments even though the MKO is on the American State Department’s list of terrorist organizations.”

“Pro-Israel lobby groups exert extreme pressure on American politicians,” he further explained. “If the State Department removes the MKO from the terrorist list, then the American government would lose any excuse for accepting MKO members in America.”

The Professor at California state university in Irvine noted that the MKO continues to exist because "most Iranians living outside of Iran are afraid to criticize the MKO."

UN urges EU countries to take Camp Ashraf residents as refugees

Martin Kobler, Special representative of the UN Secretary General for Iraq, on Thursday urged the EU Member States to receive the Camp Ashraf’s residents in Iraq as refugees. "My message goes to the governments of EU Member States because the final purpose of the whole exercise to move people from one camp to the other for them to undergo the refugees’ status determination is to bring them abroad, " Kobler told a press conference in Brussels this evening.

"And so far the answer of (EU) Member States to receive the Camp Ashraf’s residents as refugees, once recognised in their host country, was not that enthusiastic. And my appeal goes also to Member States, then at the end once they are refugees, to take them into their countries and to give them a live and freedom and liberty in their countries," he added. Camp Ashraf is a camp of more than 3000 exiled members of the Iranian People’s Mujahedin dissident group , which is located some 60 kilometres north of Baghdad . Camp Ashraf was until 2009 under the control of the US military, but has since been controlled by the Iraqi Government. On 25 December, the Iraqi Government signed a Memorandum of Understanding organising the transfer of the Iranian dissidents to a transit location near Baghdad Airport, Camp Liberty.

It would allow the Iranians to undergo the refugees’ status determination with the assistance of UNHCR. On his part, Hugues Mingarelli, Managing Director for the Middle East and Southern Neighbourhood in the EU, stated that the EU High Representative Catherine Ashton will continue to raise the issue with EU Member States in order to look to possibilities to relocate some of the residents of Camp Ashraf.

Ashton has called on the Iraqi government to refrain from all violence and to fully respect the human rights of the camp’s residents. Ambassador Dan Fried, US Special Advisor for Camp Ashraf told the press conference that people from Camp Ashraf need to be considered individually. "And to make determinations about any specific individual we need to know more about them and such information can be obtained only after they moved to Camp Liberty and participate in the UNHCR status determination process, " he added.
