Former members of the MEK

Nejat Society on MBC

It is not something strange if you want to return to your country where you were born and grown up.
Nothing is more beautiful than your mother land. A former member, of Mujahedin-e-Khalq , an Iranian dissident group, has repatriated. Please notice the report of his repatriation:
About 3000 members of MEK are still abroad.

Some of the defectors of MEK are trying to convince the others to return home and enjoy the granted public amnesty. The cries of wailing families who have been expecting such a day, their anxiety will end in a few minutes that last as years. The eyes of the relatives show how they have been waiting for their beloved ones for twenty-nine years now without having any news of him. And this expatriation was not for education or building a future.

Sedige Yousei, Mohammad’s sister, the MEK defectors:

We haven’t had any news of him for 28 years until by a phone call, we found out he was released 40 days ago. His return is based on his honest internal feelings and emotions for his country.

Because Mohammadi had lived far from his family for years, he has lost many things.

Mohammad Yousefi the former member of MEK
Mohammad Yousefi (the former member of MEK):
I got shocked after I found out the real nature of the MEK but returning to the country was impossible. It seemed that they possessed the members; all members were forced to submit daily reports to their officials. Once I committed suicide, I committed phlebotomy .

There are too many people like Mohammad in the MEK. The number mounts to 3200. Since the foundation of Nejat Association which is in charge of helping the repatriation of MEK captives, a lot of them have succeeded to return home after the Iranian government declared the amnesty for those who hadn’t committed assassination and also they even granted amnesty to those who don’t have any private appellant.

Arash SametipourArash Sametipour:
We have tried to release the MEK member since 2003. The number of the current captives is 3200 who have 3200 mothers who are grieving due to their children. I’d say there are a lot of families who suffer the separation of their beloved children.

Esmat lost his father, a tailor working in his shop, in a terrorist operation. Edalat Association was founded to air the voices of hers and the ones similar to her, to the world saying that terrorism will end up some day.

Esmat lost his father, a tailor working in his shop, in a terrorist operation
Esmat Sepehri:
We don’t want to revenge and we don’t want the other countries to pay the price we paid by the blood of our dear ones. We want to present a solution to the countries that were harmed by terrorism. We want to fight terrorism.

More than 500 defectors have repatriated and they are now living a normal life. When the man is forbidden of any contact, he feels lonesome, defeated and terrified.
But the love for country is routed in the hearts.Download Nejat Society on MBC

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

Italy considers PMOI as terrorist Group

Nothing to impede Iran-Italy friendly ties: Italian ambassador Service: Foreign Policy

Italian newly-appointed ambassador to Iran Alberto Bradanini stressed no issue could impede Iran-Italy friendly ties.

Italy has always fully endeavored to boost the level of all-out cooperation with Iran, Bradanini said at a meeting with Iran’s Parliament National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi.

The ambassador also underlined the influential role of Iran-Italy parliamentary friendship group on promoting bilateral cooperation and called for setting up the group.

Elsewhere in his remarks he referred to Mojahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) and assured that Italy considers the group as a terrorist one and will not shift its stance regarding the band.

Boroujerdi for his part said grounds for mutual cooperation on economic, industrial and political sections are available.

He also called for Italian government to prevent MKO moves in the country.

Also concerning Iran’s nuclear technology, Boroujerdi emphasized on the Parliament approval of the plan for building twenty nuclear power plants and said the Europe particularly Italy can take part in construction of the plants to create a new positive development over mutual ties.

Europe needs to review its policy regarding Iran to open a new room for a constructive interaction and mutual regional cooperation.

The MEK; Baath Party Accomplice

Saddam And Rajavi shared crimes

Acting as Saddam’s Private Army, the Mujahedin Khalq Organization have actively participated in the war which Saddam Hussein waged against Iran between 1980 and 1988, engaging themselves in intelligence gathering for the Iraqi army as well as participating in joint operations with them”, the former MKO members said.

Moreover, the Mujahedin, as part of Saddam’s military establishment, played a decisive role in the suppression of the internal uprisings in Iraq in 1991, and are responsible for the massacre of many Iraqi Shiites and Kurds who opposed Saddam. The best documented of these being the massacre of the Kurds in their uprising in March 1991”.

The Ideology of the MEK

Ideology interpreted for ambitions

Of the most repeatedly used terms in the publications of MKO in addition to lectures made by its leader, Masoud Rajavi, is “ideology” to the point that it has turned to be an emblematic term in Mojahedin’s literature. Rajavi has justified all his wrong doings and political and strategic errors by grabbing at the ideology and referring to the necessity of adhering to it as a multipurpose factor. It has to be pointed out that the organization’s manifestos and doctrines have been based on the ideology and its function in a variety of social and political grounds. For instance, in the history of the organization written by Rajavi, the significance of ideology has been elaborated on in this way:

Nowadays, a theory or pre-determined program is an inevitable necessity for those familiar with the science of struggle without which achieving victory is impossible. The founders of the organization have been well aware of this issue when they adopted the Islamic ideology as the base of theory and instruction for their anti-imperialist struggle. Therefore, from the beginning, they have compiled a new version of Islamic ideology to efface ethnic and class blemishes.  1   

The focus of the present article is not on the way the early Mojahedin dealt with ideology and its relationship with armed struggle since it is an issue spelled out previously. The point is that from the early days of formation, the organization has been distinguished from other parallel groups and trends holding grab at the factor of the ideology. Furthermore, Mojahedin have made an attempt to introduce their own interpretation of the religion and religious issues as the ideological framework of their social and political relations. In other words, Mojahedin have made borderlines with outsiders and their dissidents under the pretext of ideology and hence have a ready-made justification for all their activities even cultic and terrorists ones. In this regard, even the organizational obedience is allowed as long as ideological fundamentals of MKO are kept intact:

As long as the organization adheres to ideological principles and there can be seen no drift and deviation, that is to say, as long as we hew to the correct ideological and political (strategy and tactics) lines, it is a revolutionary task to accept its centralism and make efforts to strengthen it. 2  

Mojahedin are of the opinion that holding onto their ideological values requires heavy costs which they have to pay. The price could even be pretentious political drifts or making claims of having taken a different struggle strategy until the appropriate time and the golden opportunity knocked. Seizing the political opportunities could hardly be working in the same way of keeping to the ideology and sometimes they preferred to sacrifice temporal political interests for the cause of ideology.  As once stated in one of their published booklets:

Evidently, measures taken and decisions made for keeping ideological values have a certain cost to be paid, that is to say, they may entail some losses. For instance, we may be deprived of some supports and even be isolated in short time. 3

Generally speaking, Mojahedin never in the past sacrificed their ideology nor misused it for the fulfillment of selfish objectives up to the leadership of Masoud Rajavi. However, since then ideology has been turned into a paradoxical instrument in the hands of the leadership in order to instill his pragmatic, hegemonic, and totalitarian ambitions into an organization that soon metamorphosed into a cult of personality. After the change of monarchical regime in Iran and Rajavi’s failure to secure a share of political power, he shifted the order of Mojahedin ideology and challenged the religious issues once respected by Mojahedin. He also made new recruitments claiming to be in full opposition to global imperialism and the newly established regime in Iran. He would predict that finally the regime along with imperialism and the world’s superpowers would collapse before MKO’s ideology came to glamorize. Then it will be the initiation of a so-called political phase in which an internally intensified chaos instigate discordance among political parties inside Iran that pushed Mojahedin onto the power. In fact, he had a prejudicial and incomplete understanding of Islam and disguised his personal ambitions as the revolutionized ideology of MKO that eroded the last social support among Iranian.        

It was the ideology that set the turning point for entering the armed phase and perpetrating terrorist attacks. Ideology may be considered to be a pretext for Rajavi to make the grounds for his anti-social and inhuman activities. In fact, he theorized and justified his decision-makings, terrorist activities, moving to Iraq and cooperating with Saddam, developing the ideological revolution in MKO, forming a cult of personality and many more by means of ideology. He also openly considered his opposition to Iranian regime as a result of anti-imperialist ideology of Mojahedin against traditional bourgeoisie politics of the latter. As a result, he managed to pave the way for the development of insecurity, anarchy, and terror inside Iran by clinging to his widely despised, self-fabricated ideology.

Germany

German Greens say no to Mojahedin Khalq

Germany’s Green Party has rejected an attempt by Maryam Rajavi to re-brand the MKO terrorist group as a credible and legitimate partner.

Along with her husband Massoud, Maryam Rajavi is the co-leader of the terrorist cultMaryam Rajavi, the leader of the outlawed Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO), or People’s Mujahedin Organization, recently met with members of the German Parliament in a bid to rally support for the removal of the group from the European Union’s list of terrorist organizations.

“The Iranian exile organization of the People’s Mojahedin Organization which acts under the cover of the National Council of Resistance of Iran is not a suitable partner in dialogue for a responsible policy towards Iran,”a spokesperson for the Green Party, Claudia Roth said late Thursday.

 

Maryam Rajavi directly ordered the massacre of Kurdish people

 Maryam Rajavi directly ordered the massacre of Kurdish people

Roth told reporters that

the group’s position on the EU terror list should be carefully evaluated, as the Rajavi organization has a ‘past of terror’ and assisted the ‘crimes’ of the deposed dictator, Saddam Hussein, in Iraq.

The Green Party, which holds 51 out of 614 seats in the Bundestag, said it clearly dissociates itself from considering the Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a legitimate ‘democratic Iranian opposition’.

The MKO which has been listed as a terrorist organization in Iran, the European Union and the United States, has a long and bloody history of targeting Iranian civilians and government officials.

Incidents linked to the group include the June 1981 bombing of the offices of The MKO is responsible for the assassination of Major General Ali Sayyad-Shirazi, the Chief of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces in 1999.the Islamic Republic Party in which 72 high-ranking Iranian officials including judiciary chief, Ayatollah Mohmmad Beheshti, and tens of Majlis deputies were killed.

The following August the group assassinated President Mohmmad Ali Rajae’i, Prime Minister Javad Bahonar and National Police Chief Ali Dastgerdi at the Prime Ministry building.

The MKO also assisted Iraqi dictator, Saddam Hussein, in the massacre of thousands of innocent Iraqis and is responsible for several acts of terror in Iran including the 1994 bombing of a revered Shia shrine in Mashhad, eastern Iran.

In 2003, French anti-terrorist police arrested 165 members in Paris, including Maryam Rajavi, for ‘associating with wrongdoers in relation with a terrorist undertaking.’

More recently, around 10 members of the notorious organization were arrested in France and Switzerland on charges of money laundering on September 29, 2008.

The Ideology of the MEK

Eclectic ideology of a terrorist cult

Ideology constitutes one of the main levers at the hands of Mojahedin leadership for the fulfillment of his political and cultic objectives. It has played a crucial role in the development of the organization up to now and has served a variety of historical, social, and political purposes. It is a good idea to take a Ideology constitutes one of the main levers at the hands of Mojahedin leadership for the fulfillment of his political and cultic objectiveslook at the early years of MKO to have a better understanding of the function of ideology. From the beginning, science, ideology, and religion were the main pillars on which Mojahedin founded its political struggle:

In the same way as today’s revolutionary concepts that are the product of bloody struggles of men to change the world’s order, the Divine Revelation through the Holy Qur’an disclosed to man truths that unraveled the secrets of his life and solved the most complex philosophy of existence. 1

Mojahedin from the very beginning have put emphasis on having adopted a religious ideology; however, it was mainly due to the specific social, political and religious conditions of their society not their firm belief in religious values. In fact, the early Mojahedin were very anxious to create an ideology that justifiably approved armed struggle. This claim can be proved easily by means of the analyses made and published by the organization itself. The reason may be the occurrence of the ideological schism of the organization into Islamic and Marxist wings due to the fact that some members came to believe that religion in itself was not capable to solve all social and political challenges of the society. Therefore, it was deemed necessary to replace the Islamic ideology of the organization with an eclectic one.

It has to be pointed out that the ideology of the organization in any phase depended much on the main objectives it pursued and functioned as a pretext for the fulfillment of those objectives. We are not here to make a definitive judgment on whether the founders of the organization have misused ideology or not since religion has been treated in a variety of ways by Mojahedin in the last decades. On the one hand, they looked at it instrumentally with regard to political and social conditions of the society; on the other hand, some others have extracted the necessity of struggle from religious doctrines. However, religion has been considered mainly as a means to achieve political goals. 

Many MKO former members have acknowledged that from the early years of the formation of MKO, religion has been considered to be a must but merely with regard to political and social issues of the society. They have asserted that Islamic ideology was adopted at that time since it was supposed that Islam was closely related to class struggle and Marxist ideology. In addition, since Iranian culture was intermingled with Islamic values, Mojahedin made an attempt to blend Islam with their own favorite ideology, Marxism. One of the members witnessing the ideological schism of Mojahedin refers to various interpretations made of religion and ideology and says:

At that time, religious concerns were necessarily in force. In other words, Mojahedin tried to confirm the fundamental concepts of their ideology by means of religion that was intermingled with [Iranian] culture. Therefore, they had to be cautious about whatever could be regarded as anti-religion and reason their words according to Quran. For example, if members theorized that working was of great value, they had to provide evidence from Quran. There were some Marxist books, e.g. Lenin and Mao, as well as other books materially discussing formation of the world among the pamphlets of the organization but Mojahedin leaders were cautious not to target members’ Islamic beliefs and therefore, novel and deliberate interpretation of Quranic verses were presented. 2  

This was the starting point for turning religion into an ideology ignoring the real conditions of the society and which aimed at fulfillment of social and political values and norms of Mojahedin. Taking this viewpoint, religion turned to be an instrument at the hands of Marxist Mojahedin. It took at least one decade to turn an idealist political organization into a religious and political cult. Mojahedin justifiably argued that religion by itself and shared in an eclectic ideology has to be at the service of a struggle to constitute a classless society. The world view continued up to Rajavi’s absolute domination over the organization, but underwent a great change especially after the collapse of the Socialism camp that led to a global power imbalance.

No doubt, the process enforced changes that placed the organization in the abyss of a paradoxical ideology. Unlike the earlier days when ideology played a crucial role in class struggle, now it is abused as an instrument to advance certain non-collective interests and to secure authoritarian hegemony of Rajavi. A brief look at the course of events after the development of ideological revolution within MKO well clarifies the raveled facts. Rajavi in all these years misused ideology as well as science and religion in order to justify his egocentrically made decisions that led to strategic defeats and failures.

The ideological marriage of Rajavi and Maryam Azodanlu may be considered to be another turning point in the history of the organization that led it onto the abyss of a cult. Rajavi made numerous justifications for this event with a focus on religious values. It seems that Rajavi tried to misuse all religious creeds in order to safeguard  his selfish objectives. He even compared Maryam Azodanlu to Virgin Mary and her sufferings, stating:

In defense of Maryam, the most pure and virtues Mojahed woman against all accusations and insults leveled against her, I have to say that a whirlwind blows first over the highlands and crushes the flowers atop the branches, that is to say, Maryam, the symbol of freedom of Iranian women. She is a thunderbolt against aggression, a loud roar against oppression, pure and innocent, manifestation of the angel of freedom, the heroine of all Mojahedin victories, beyond any epic and the song of freedom. 3

Rajavi exploited religion and the ideology that was intended to help advance a struggle for a certain cause for the establishment of a most anti-social modern phenomenon, a cult. He accredited himself a god-like and prophetic status whose mission was, and still is, to guide not only his followers but the world. The mere claim of being a cult’s maharishi with a developed eclectic ideology is enough to jeopardize the security and well-being of any society. The problem is even greater with MKO and the Rajavis at the lead; they have developed traits and characteristics of a notorious terrorist organization synthesized with that of a dangerous cult.

Former members of the MEK

Memories of Hassan Atash Afzun

Hassan Atash Afzun, MKO former member, tells his memories of the 18 years he spent in the group.

I was born in Bandar Abbas in 1968. I didn’t know the MEK just like mostHassan Atash Afzun:I was not able to communicate with them at all so I complained asking for leaving the camp but they began to threaten me Iranians, however those Iranians, who know them, hated them due to clear reasons but I wasn’t even interested to know about them.

In 1983, I traveled to UAE illegally to find a Job. After 6 years of working there, when I was likely to be able to get citizenship, in 1989 I met Majid Shekouhi, he suggested working in Europe and I accepted the suggestion ambitiously. In the late 1989 he took me to Dubai airport to board the plane with a false passport! At the airport when I was boarding, I found out that there was no trip to England and the plane was supposed to take me to Baghdad. So my fate was going another way.

In Camp Bagher Zade I heard of Mujahedin Khalq for the first time! I was not able to communicate with them at all so I complained asking for leaving the camp but they began to threaten me saying that “Because you entered Iraq illegally, we have to hand you to Iraqi forces who will send you to Abu Qoraib prison.”

They recommended that after a three-month period of military training! I would go to Europe. Once I saw Majid Shekouhi in a ceremony and complained to him because he had deceived me, so he promised that I would go to Europe in thee months.

They tried to convince me to stay in Iraq. They even resorted to methods to control my mind, for example they would let me watch Indian films if I was ready to watch the films of their suicide operations. I was controlled by threats, alluring, terrifying, so I stopped complaining. I always had a question in mind: why do they urge on recruiting some one by deception and then keep him by force? A question I could find answer for when I entered MKO’s relations: the MEK seriously needed to show Saddam Hussein that their number is everyday on the rise in order to prove their legitimacy and also they could get more facilities due to their new recruitments.

I was organized in NLA which was in fact a complicated part of Saddam’s army and, in 1991, I attended the operation that ended with the death of Kurdish people in Touz-Kefri road. I could personally see five Kurds who were killed by the MEK.

Masud Rajavi said about  “Pearl Operation” :

“we are defending our landlord – Izat Ibrahim commands over the MEK and if he wasn’t here, they would not give the tanks to us- we paid the price of the donated  tanks  by Kurds’ blood.”

Saee’d Manouchehri, Mohammad Reza Tari, Mohammad Reza Pour Daghi, and many other MEK members who participated in the operation told us quoting from the Rajavis:

”Take the Kurds under your tanks ,keep the bullets for revolutionary guards.”

During the first Gulf War, when the Iraqi forces left Baghdad ,Izat Ibrahim was in charge of the MEK ( in fact he was ,after Saddam, the main supporter of the MEK). It seems that at the present time, the MEK is trying to stay in Iraq in the hope of Izat Ibrahim’s supporters and the return of Baath remnants.

I had challenges in the organization where I was punished due to the least complaint; in 1993 when Mahmoud Qaem Shahr saw my insistence to leave the group told me to write down and sign that I was regime’s agent , then I would be allowed to go!

In fact, this was a way to prevent forces’ defection and the other way was to threaten the members that they would hand them to Iraqi government and imprison them in AbuQoraib. Once more I wasn’t in doubt, so I was sent to “Traffic control” section to serve as the guard for authorities of MEK. Mostly I was with Ozra Alavi when she wanted to go to Habib base in Basra.

At the time, they showed too much concern for me and even Masud Rajavi sent a message to me that :

” you should become Shiite due to the organization and your ideological leader and you should declare that you are not a Sunnite anymore and you have converted to Shiite religion!” but I didn’t accept.

After the fall of Saddam Hussein, the MEK had a hard time because their main supporter in the world was overthrown, they were disarmed and controled. Mozhgan Parsaiee was so afraid of the time when the American forces figure out that the Mujahedin cheered and celebrated the September Eleventh attack so their problems increase. I remember that I got the news of Sep.11th attack when I was in the soccer field.

We started cheering and chanting. They announced to go indoors so as the American satellites cannot notice us!  In a meeting that was held after September 11th attack, Masud Rajavi told to Maryam Rajavi:

”if your forces had revolted, they would have launched such an operation” and he also addressed  the  pilots :”Dear pilots, you must be prepared for such operations.”

The situation was so disturbing after the fall of Saddam Hussein and American’s settlement. Also some members were complaining so the organizations officials had to deal with both internal and external problems. Mozhgan Parsaiee said in the meetings:

”we will not stop the armed struggle but we have to postpone it because of our preferences.”

For their maintenance in Iraq, after Saddam, they used any trick including paying large amounts of money to people to sign petitions asking for MEK’s stay in Iraq. I was transferred to this section because I knew Arabic. I was in charge of gathering signatures and paying money to the signatories. Hamid Mausavi and abu Heidar (Iraqi) were also recruited by MEK to collect signatories in Iraqi tribes. For each signature 150,000 Dinars were paid. I was supposed to revise the signatures and divide the money. The problem was that out of the 400 signatures, 390 were the same. This reminded me the time when the members were marching in Camp Ashraf and each member had to pass in front of the scene several time but in different forms so as the number of members seemed more!

When I was working in MEK’s social headquarters (The meeting room for their visits with Iraqis), I had a TV and I could receive Iranian channels. When I saw the film “wolves” [which was made by Iranians on MEK’s relations with Saddam Hussein] and I found out the close relationships between Saddam Hussein and Masud RAjavi,I was deeply decided to escape towards TIPF but my decision was denounced. Since that time I started disobeying the organization’s orders. Finally I could   come to TIPF where I immediately contacted my family whomI was not allowed to contact with for many years.

Since I came to Iran, I have been assured that the MEK have been spending their time in a cave called Ashraf for two decades. The MEK’s world is a dark, tight world where everything is black and white and iced. This is a fact that you can not find out unless you face the Sun. Now I am under a sun named Iran.

Habilian Foundation

Tribal leaders of Southern Iraq visit Habilian

A group of tribal leaders and Sheikhs from southern regions of Iraq met and exchanged ideas with members of Habilian Association executive board. In this meeting which was initiated with the speech of director of Habilian’s political committee Sayed Hussein Kakmyab welcomed the Iraqi delegation’s arrival in the holy city of Mashhad and said: Habilian Association has been established in 2005 with the objective of gathering deeds and documents about MKO terrorist group in Iran and also to open MKO crimes cases in international tribunals. This association is comprised of the children and other family members of terror victims in Iran. Hearing the name of terrorists would undoubtedly remind you of the enemies of Iraqi people.

MKO has been for years at the heart of criminal acts against the people of Iraq. They have committed several acts of terrorism inside Iraq and have killed a large number of people in your country causing many human disasters in there. In Iran they have also assassinated over 12000 people including the Iranian president, prime minister, judiciary chief and several MPs by launching terrorist operations. After the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran they were forced by the people out of the country, so they resorted to Saddam Hussein and resumed their terrorist operations this time under Saddam’s service. Saddam would provide them with a sum of $50 million every three months and they would be under full command of Saddam in return. They were also given an extra budget from the money earned by selling oil. An instance of what they have done in return is the suppression of Shiite Intifada and also massacre of Kurds and Turkmen. They would do whatever they could to satisfy Saddam Hussein in return for his favors toward this terrorist group.

Son of Martyr Kamyab went on and said: right now and as the influential tribal groups in the current scene of Iraq you would play a major role in informing the Iraqi people about this terrorist group. You ca disclose the evil nature of MKO inside and outside Iraq. As the representatives of the two nations of Iran and Iraq we have many things in common. We enjoy the great civilization of Islam which has caused our getting closer to each other this is why the world superpowers always are up to make disunion between us. We also possess huge oil resources which is another reason for the exploiters to create sedition among us.

 

He also added: I think you agree with us that America attacked Iraq merely for its own interests and in order to attain their wicked ambitions they began to implement their plots for hypocrisy between Iran and Iraq. Shah of Iran insisted on Persian nationalism and Arab nationalism, and Saddam on separating Sunnis from Shiites. Saddam imposed a war on Iran which lasted for 8 years and amid which hundreds of thousands of the people from both nations were killed. What do you think of this war to be set up for? It was just the result of the global superpowers’ plots.

Pointing to the efforts of the Iraqi people to choose their own destiny, their own parliament and government kamyab said: the Iraqi people set the foundations of an independent parliament and chose independent government mostly working for the Iraqi people. It is as bright as the day for all of you that America, after the fall of Saddam, started to support terrorist groups like the Mujahedin-e Khalq and Al Qaeda instead of backing Iraqi peoples’ freedom movement. This way they wanted to justify their illegitimate presence and occupation in Iraq.

Kamyab notified the Iraqi peoples’ recent demonstrations through which they had demanded the expulsion of MKO from their land and said: such demonstrations show that the Iraqi peoples’ unwillingness and that they never want MKO to remain in Iraq any more. A recent instance of such demonstrations was the one by people of Khalis.

Director of the Political Committee of Habilian Association pointed to the progresses the Islamic republic of Iran has made in recent years, especially in the field of nuclear energy, and said: we believe that the Iraqi youth as well can achieve such successes.

Then he mentioned the issue of Ashraf and said: Camp Ashraf is a part of Iraq’s soil and I hope you can have it back again by expelling MKO terrorist cult from Iraq.

Yousof Hamadi head of the delegation of southern Iraq’s tribal leaders was another speaker of the meeting. He expressed gratitude on behalf of the whole delegation for Habilian’s efforts and declared solidarity and sympathy with the families of terror victims in Iran.

He said: My colleagues and I would like to know more about your efforts in Iran and your development and progress you’ve made in all fields. Unfortunately there was an inaccurate picture of Iran in our minds as a result of false propaganda against Iran and we were surprised and realized that how far we had been mistaking about Iran as soon as we arrived in your country.

 

 

Hamadi also spoke about the crimes and atrocities of Saddam’s oppressive regime and said: Saddam Hussein suppressed Shiites and assassinated many of them. Many of Shiites Sheikhs were ordered to leave the country and go on exile.

Then he notified the Iraqi parliament’s decision for the expulsion of MKO terrorist group from Iraq and said: we are well aware of the evil nature of this group and the help they gave Saddam in suppressing and killings of Shiites. They welcomed the Americans’ arrival in Iraq and have their bloody hands in the massacre of Iraqi people and creating mass graves in Iraq.

 

Hamadi stated: we have come to Iran to see your developments and to convey your friendship massage to the Iraqi people.

At the end of the meeting the petition for the expulsion of MKO was signed by the delegation.
