The Ideology of the MEK

Why the MKO Resorts To Hypocricy?

16 of Azar (December 7) passed and like all previous years, active political student groups commemorated it. As expected, according to the political situation in the Universities, some these groups criticized the policies of government on issues related to higher education.

Amazingly, the terrorist group of the MKO took this issue as an opportunity to boost the morale of its desperate members; therefore, they tried to introduce the students’ activities as a proof for their wrong analyses, according to which they describe the situation of the society as "exploding" and claim that armed forces in Iran are relentlessly struggling to suppress popular protests.

Of course, in this article, there’s no need to say that how baseless these analyses are (and have been during past 25 years).

However, what is important in respect to the topic of our article is that those who gathered in Technical College in Tehran on 16 of Azar are all known people and those who follow the political news and issues of Universities are familiar with them and their positions.

That they are known is very important and raises questions that the MKO should answer.

The question is that why the MKO advertises on this gathering and tries to take advantage of it?

To answer this question, it should be clarified that protestors were from Tahkim-e Vahdat Association, which generally includes National-Religious elements with different attitudes the most radical of whom are people like Mr. Tabarzadi.

Everyone is aware of Mr. Tabarzadi’s letter and his views on the MKO. He and his sympathizers- as the radical ones- believe that: (1) the organization of Mojahedin-e Khalq is a terrorist organization; it should review its past and throw away its leaders if it wants to have a role in Iran’s political scene, (2) this group should compensate its treacherous cooperation with Saddam Hussein against Iranians.

It should also be noted that other branches of Tahkim-e Vahdat have not been ignorant about the MKO. As the nature of MKO indicates, they consider it a mercenary force and an enemy of Iranian people. This leaves no place for honorable students to cooperate with the group. Of course, as we saw, the students deprived foreigners from the chance of interfering in Iran’s internal affairs.

Now, regarding the nature of movements inside Iran and their hatred for the gang of Rajavi, it should be said that MKO’s advertising on recent developments in Iran is as if they are advertising for Monarchists in the US or Workers’ Communist Party in Sweden or England!

Of course, it should be said that there’s no similarity between honorable Iranian students and other dependent groups abroad, but the comparison was made only with respect to the fact that the MKO is against these groups and censors news related to them.

Why the MKO resorts to hypocrisy in this regard is clear:

1. Inherent opportunism of the group and its abuse of the situation in order to help the desperate conditions even if the group should stand against its own violent strategies.

2. Lagging behind the international developments and its inability to influence the situation as well as its efforts to save its face.

3. Finally, this approach has only internal uses for the MKO. It should be noted that the MKO has repeatedly announced that movements inside Iran are bound to the government and that none of them want the overthrow of regime. MKO has announced that these groups don’t meet the goals of Mojahedin and that these groups sometimes have consensus against the MKO. However, since the group should prove the "exploding situation of society", they should take advantage of such news events reflected in domestic and international news agencies.

In the end, it should be stressed that the hypocrisy of the MKO will only damage MKO’s own claims and violent anti-human stances, since in Iran, no group or movement accepts the cult of Rajavi and its positions. Therefore, all MKO’s propaganda can be considered as obituary for Rajavi’s thoughts.

A letter from Mr. Mirasgari to Mr. Richard Armey

A letter from Mr. Mirasgari to Mr. Richard Armey, "DLP Piper" and "Freedom works"

Dear Mr. Armey,

I have been informed that you and your establishment are engaged in producing a report in a bid to take the Mojahedin Khalq Organisation (MKO, MEK) and its alias name National Council of Resistance of Iran, off the list of terrorist organisations.

I would like to draw your attention to a point. As far as your profession in a law firm is concerned it is perfectly normal that you would try your best to achieve the goals of your client. But in pursuing this goal, you can also listen to the claims made and evidence produced by your client’s critics and in particular those who have directly experienced torture and maltreatment at the hands of this organisation.

I, Alireza Mirasghari spent over a decade of my life in Iraq as a member of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation and Deputy Executive member of the National Liberation Army. My family had been supporting MKO from 1976, well before the start of the Iranian revolution and two of my uncles were executed by the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1981.

I started my full time political activities with Mojahedin Khalq organisation from the age of 17, when I thought Mojahedin Khalq was a democratic organisation which would be a good replacement for the present rulers of Iran.

In 1994, I and another 600 members of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation started criticising the policies of Mojahedin. We were sent to the prisons of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation, we were put under extreme pressure, including physical and mental torture.

Dear Mr. Armey,

In 1994, the prison guards of the Rajavi cult (MKO) threw the body of Mr. Parviz Ahmadi into our cell. He died in front of our eyes. And later the Mojahedin published his name in their Mojahed publication number 380 as a martyr!

Personal beliefs are rigorously scrutinised inside the organisation under the so-called Maryam Revolution. This is Maryam Rajavi’s theory for controlling personal thoughts and countering personal beliefs. Disaffected members who do not submit to these techniques are subjected to systematic maltreatment.

In 2001, I was sent to solitary confinement for two years because of criticising the policies of Mojahedin. I still suffer the aftermath of the physical and mental tortures I received during these years.

Mr. Armey,

The evidence and documents showing Mojahedin Khalq Organisation (aka: National Council of Resistance of Iran, National Liberation Army …etc) is a terrorist organisation are overwhelming. I am really surprised that you could announce:

"… as a result of extensive in depth research we believe that there are strong reasons the name of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation of Iran and National Council of Resistance of Iran should be removed from the list of terrorist organisation by the State Department…" (Hambastegi Meli, the official Mojahedin web site).

You should know that the Mojahedin Khalq Organisation, which cooperated with the ex regime of Saddam Hussein in Iraq in every aspect of military and intelligence fields against Iran during the Iran Iraq war, is most hated by expatriate Iranians and the people inside Iran.

In the end, I would like to draw you attention to the fact that you can side with the people of Iran rather than standing with their enemies and the history of Iran would certainly remember you with a good name.

Yours sincerely,

Alireza Mirasghari

Open Letter to the Head Office of the Pentagon

Dear Sir / Madam,

Following the recent news about the possible recruitment, and retraining, of the members of the Mojahedin-e- Khalq (MEK) by the head of the Pentagon, for the purpose of using them against the Iranian regime, created serious concerns within the Iranian communities in general and among the former members of MEK in particular. This guerilla Organization which operates under 125 different titles including Mojahedin Khalq Organization (MKO), National Council of Resistance (NCR) and National Liberation Army (NLA) has a long history of changing hats and riding the waves in different climates that should be known to you after dealing with them for the past two decades.

In our opinion you are well aware of the 1994 State Department report which describes this organization as a terrorist group. The leadership of MEK, the Rajavis, ignored the report at the time since they were being supported and financed by the former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, and the MEK had total reliance on him. However, after the collapse of the despot they have tried to find a new ally, this time in the West, yet their main obstacle has remained the above mentioned report. In their efforts they knocked at every door and offered every service to reverse and null that classification.

We, as the former members of this group, wish to emphasize that the MEK is founded and based on violent principals and believes in militant solutions even against the current major developments of the International community which tends to be against the terror and violence.

The leadership of the MEK, Mr. Masoud Rajavi and Mrs. Maryam Rajavi and a few major players, has not officially denounced the militant operations and violence which has been the pillar of this organization in the past forty years since the original formation of the MEK. Recently, the Secretary General of MEK, in Camp Ashraf, requested that their status should be reconsidered and their arms, which have been confiscated by U.S Forces in March 2003, should be returned to them.

We also trust that you are well aware of this group’s past anti American activities in Iran during the Shah’s regime in which time the MEK has assassinated the six American Generals, while on a mission in Iran. Many Iranian innocent civilians were also the victims of the MEK terrorist activities inside the country.

In conclusion we feel obliged to assure you that this group will never be considered as an alternative not only for the existing regime but even a mere force of a regime change. Iranians have knowledge of this organizations activities and affiliations and will never bestow their trust on them.

Our sincere advice to you, as informed former members of this organization, is that you should follow the examples available to you. If the people of Iran in their desperate struggle for freedom refuse to ally themselves with a group that has proven not to be trustworthy why should you even consider trying it.

Sincerely,

Pars- Iran

Open Letter to Mr Richard K, Armey about MEK

Mr Richard K. Armey

Senior Policy Adviser

Co-Chair, Homeland Security

DLA Piper Rudnick

Gray Cary

1200 Nineteenth Street, NW

Washington, DC , 20036-2412

United States of America

Dear Mr. Richard Armey,

We are writing to you, as former members of the Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), to express our serious concerns regarding the MEK’s recent increased activities within Western countries. We are especially shocked to hear that you and some U.S. Senators are offering their support to MEK in the hope of using them as the instrument of change in Iran . In doing so, you are being completely indifferent to the past history of this organization as a terrorist group with a long trail of violence and militant actions even against its own members.

We would appreciate it if you could make public your own definition of terrorism. On what basis do you claim that the MEK is not a terrorist group after killing so many innocent Iranian civilians and committing many crimes including military training of under age children and using them by force in military actions? In your opinion are terrorists only those who commit acts of terror against Western countries and their citizens? Are you exempting the rest of the world from this equation and do not consider atrocities against their citizens to qualify as crimes? As we follow the news and read the official statements about global terrorism, specifically since September 11, 2001, we are fully convinced that MEK should be at the top of your list by any definition. Your diversion from globally accepted definitions of terrorism can only translate into double standards and discrimination.

Here we offer some examples that may assist you to have a better picture of MEK so you can think twice before placing your bet on them and investing your credit on a lost cause.

As Iranians, and former members of the organization, we have first hand experience of both the mullahs of the Iranian regime and the MEK leadership, and with full confidence we can claim that they are both following the same ideology. It is a known fact that MEK was the biggest supporter of Ayatollah Khomeini during the revolution in Iran and for a definitive period after that. They were also the architects of, and directly involved in, many of the extreme measures taken by the new regime including the U.S hostage crises in Iran in 1979. The MEK has also assassinated seven Americans during the Shah’s regime. One of their major conflicts with the Shah’s regime was the opinion that the Shah was himself the puppet of the U.S.A.

As you are well aware, MEK has been designated as a terrorist group since 1994, and they are on the terror list of the United States , Canada and the European Union. We also trust that you are informed about the Human Rights Watch Report on MEK in 2005 and an additional report in 2006. The MEK has violated human rights in their bases in Iraq and elsewhere by torturing and imprisoning their own members who criticized their wrong doings or voiced their decision to detach themselves from that organization. However, we are enclosing a copy of that report for your reference.

It is a public knowledge that MEK have no support in Iran for the role they played during the eight year war between Iran and Iraq . They moved their headquarters to Iraq during that time and supported, and worked closely with, Saddam Hussein against Iran . They were financed by the former dictator of Iraq for their service during that time and later when Saddam Hussein turned against the Iraqi people.

MEK also has no credit or connection with the other opposition groups of Iran because of the absolute leadership of Mr. Massoud and Mrs. Maryam Rajavi and their cultish culture that they impose on the organization and its members. As a result of their iron grip over the organization their members are not allowed to make any personal decision. They also have no voice or vote about or against the organizational decisions enforced by the leadership.

According to their past history and the records of their activities in the West they have been involved with various illegal activities such as money laundering, ideologically grooming youths and the illegal reallocation of these youths to Iraq as a militia for further terrorist activities. All this indicates the true nature of this organization as being unlawful and dangerous and detrimental for the credibility of your government. It would not, also, reflect positively on the U.S. government to support such group as an instrument of democratic change in Iran . On the contrary, support for an undemocratic and violent organization as the main alternative for the freedom movement in Iran will set a wrong precedent and will not reflect positively on U.S. intentions for the future of Iran .

We would strongly suggest that you meet with an individual who has witnessed the MEK in action and is able to provide you with supporting documents on our claims.

It is our collective belief that an organization which has no respect for the rights and well being of its membership and assumes no responsibility towards its origin or public statements can not be trusted. It is obvious that their main concern is to gain benefit and power, from any willing party whether being Saddam Hussein, George W. Bush or newly elected Democrats.

So, please reconsider your position and do not harm or delay the young and fragile freedom movement in Iran .

Sincerely,

Pars-Iran

Suspicious attempts to hide the truth

letter of Milad Ariee to the US State Department

To: Iran Desk, US State Department

From Milad Ariaee,

December 7, 2006

With all due respect,

The Mojahedin Khalq Organisation of Iran (MKO) has again started attempts to remove its name from the list of terrorist organisation. The task has been delegated to a law firm, DLA Piper, which purports to have researched the history of MKO and come out with a fresh report about the terrorist cult. The basis for such an attempt and the provider for it is, of course, the MKO itself.

The above mentioned law firm, charging the Mojahedin with the highest fees, is to attempt to whitewash the history of this terrorist organisation. A history that has been an obstacle for the terrorists to enjoy free legal and financial activities. It has been announced that Mr. Richard Armey is heading this so called independent review which is due to be published in the near future.

Any investigation into the involvement of Mojahedin Khalq in terrorism and violence is welcomed, but the law firm employed by the terrorist organisation has adjusted the context of its report according to the needs of its client so that not only would it not allow access to the truth, it is overtly trying to avoid international justice for its client and even attempting to remove them from the list of terrorist organisations.

As you are aware, in 1994, over 20 American academics and experts in relevant issues whose names have been published were asked by the State Department to investigate the MKO and report their findings back to the State Department. And they did.

The deep analysis and investigation by the group into the nature and activities of this organisation resulted in proscription of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation as a terrorist entity by the State Department. Not only was the result of this investigation found to be still valid in 2005, further investigations resulted in keeping the group in the list of terrorists permanently.

Mojahedin’s lawyers (using the MKO’s alias National Council of Resistance of Iran) challenged the foundation of the State Department ruling in 2004 and applied to the court to appeal the ruling. The appeal court announced its verdict as follows:

…the case was investigated on 2nd April 2004, and” on 9th January 2005 a verdict was given… serial Number: 01-1480” complainer: National Council of Resistance” against: State Department and Mr. Colin Powell the Secretary of State… After the investigation and checking all the documents we believe that the decision of the State Department in classification of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation as a foreign terrorist organisation is in line with constitutional obligations. Therefore the request from National Council of Resistance will be rejected"

It is clear that the law firm DLA Piper and Mr. Richard Armey would not be able to whitewash the history of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation but unfortunately their actions can have the short-term effect of misleading some people and that is why I would like to draw the attention of Iran desk to the following.

The MKO, according to Human Rights Watch report ‘No Exit’ of May 2005, has tortured its own disaffected members and has killed at least two of them under torture in 1994.

The MKO is accused of orchestrating the disappearance of tens of its members between 1985 when they entered Iraq up to 2003 when Saddam Hussein was removed from power.

According to the report given by the French security services, the Mojahedin have been planning to kill their critics on European soil and the marked maps and relevant document were seized by the anti terrorism police from Mojahedin HQ in France.

The Mojahedin Khalq Organisation has never been a political alternative for the people of Iran and for years has worked hand-in-hand with some parts of the Iranian regime to stand in the way of progress, democracy and freedom in Iran.

The Mojahedin Khalq started their terror and violence in the 1970s with the assassination of American attaches including Colonel Hawkins and continued their violent strategy with the use of mortars resulting in the indiscriminate killing of ordinary civilian people in the crowded cities of Iran.

I would like to bring your attention to another important issue. There is no dispute about the strategic relation between the leadership of Mojahedin and the regime of Saddam Hussein during the past two decades. The MKO joined the military and secret forces of the now toppled Iraqi regime and participated in the massacre of people of Iran and Iraq. The toppled Iraqi regime spent millions of dollars from the oil-for-food program in supporting this organisation; money which during the years of sanctions was supposed to be spent for the essentials of Iraqi people. The organisation in return did whatever possible to ensure the political and military survival of Saddam Hussein. The participation in the massacre of Kurdish people in March 1991 can be taken as an example.

Considering the above mentioned points and considering democratic values and the fundamentals of human rights and remembering that MKO has been recognised as a terrorist organisation across the globe, I hope that the activities of Mr. Richard Armey is not an attempt to directly support a terrorist organisation.

MKO starts with the notion that they have never directly carried out terrorism against American personalities. The argument is fraudulent and a non-starter.

– In 1973 Colonel Luis Hawkins, an American army attach was killed in cold blood by Mojahedin in Tehran..

– In 1975, members of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation killed two American air force officers in Tehran and attacked an American embassy car resulting the death of another service man.

– In 1976 Mojahedin killed 3 employees of Rockwell International.

– In 1979, Mojahedin openly supported the kidnapping and holding of American embassy staff up to 1981 when they were released by the Islamic Republic.

The truth is that due to its terrorist nature, you can not trust the Mojahedin as a source in any aspect. Would you trust Hezbollah or Al Qaida?

The rule of ‘passage of time’ does not apply to murderers, war criminals and terrorists and the ones who provide for and support terrorists. That is why the passing of thirty years from the time that they killed the first American does not give amnesty to the Mojahedin. Otherwise it would be as if we accept that the human rights abuses by the government of Cambodia in the 70s can be an excuse for the Khmer Rouge and their violence.

Yours sincerely,

Milad Ariaee

Mr. Armey! What are you expectations from Terrorist cult?

Mr. Richard Armey! What are you expectations from Mojahedin Khalq Terrorist cult?

Dear Sir,

As you are aware, the ‘foreign policy’ of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation (MKO) has always been based on ‘incitement and war’ and to that end it exploits any kind of crisis and/or destabilisation.

The MKO ideology and way of thinking at the start of the revolution inside Iran was again based on aggravating the differences between the liberals and the religious fanatics and to survive in the gap between these two; a kind of ‘existence policy’ in a gap.

After that we witnessed the intensification of the war between Iraq and Iran and the desperate need of Saddam Hussein for the Mojahedin Khalq so that he gave them overt unlimited logistical and financial support. In reality you can say that the war was a God sent opportunity for the Mojahedin to reorganise themselves in Iraq and over time change themselves from an organisation with some support into a cult totally dependent on wars and crisis.

Dear Mr. Richard Armey,

Your acting on behalf of this organisation which is in effect promoting imperialist and aggressive objectives – the example of which is clearly visible in Afghanistan and Iraq -is understandable. And of course your antagonistic opposition to the Islamic Republic of Iran also can be considered as normal, but what is not so clear is your expectations of and your analysis of Mojahedin Khalq cult which has no actual support among the people of Iran and is so limited and irrelevant that it could not have any role in the political equations?

Do you find this Mojahedin, which throughout its entire history has used explosives to extinguish the fire of wars, trustworthy?

Dear Sir,

To clarify myself I would urge you to give more attention to the substance of the letter sent to you by Mr. Massoud Khodabandeh.

I sincerely hope that you, like many other Iranian, European and American politicians distance your good self from being used by the Mojahedin Khalq Organisation.

Yours

A letter from Mr. Sobhani to Mr. Richard Armey

Dear Mr. Armey,

For more than 2 weeks the websites of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation has been issuing propaganda about your support for the group. It was surprising for me.

I would like to introduce myself before anything else.

I am an ex member of the Central Committee of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation (MKO). This can be verified from their own propaganda outlets including Mojahed Publication (Special Edition, Autumn 1992) which mentions my name as a Deputy Executive Committee member.

In 1992 I became an outspoken critic of what is know as the “forced divorces” and of what is known as “armed struggle”. More than that, I criticised what was apparent about the special relations between the organisation and Saddam Hussein, the ousted dictator of Iraq. I was imprisoned for a few months in solitary confinement inside Ashraf camp and over all spent about 8 years in different prisons. I was captured once when I tried to escape prison and reach the office of the UN in Baghdad in August 1999. This resulted in capture in a joint operation involving Mojahedin and secret services of Iraq and I ended up again in solitary confinement. In December 2000, after one year of imprisonment and physical and mental torture, the Mojahedin handed me over to the secret service agents of Saddam Hussein in Baghdad and after spending 35 days in their special prisons, they turned me over to Abu Ghraib prison where I was held for more than a year. Perhaps I should mention here that my younger brother had been a Mojahedin activist who was executed in 1989 in Iran. My wife Mrs. Afsaneh Taherian is now in Camp Ashraf, Iraq. Mojahedin Organisation separated my daughter from me and my wife during the so called “forced divorces” period and sent her to Denmark in 1991.

Dear Mr. Armey,

As you can see, my family has been destroyed for no reason except the continuation of cult like and terrorist policies of the Mojahedin Khalq Organisation. The mother is kept in Iraq, the father now in Germany and the daughter in Denmark, not mentioning my brother who has been executed. This of course is not limited to me as a disaffected member of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation. I have given you one example from hundreds of ex members and critics of MKO who have gone through the process of imprisonment and torture practiced by Mojahedin Khalq Organisation.

Dear Sir,

I urge you to look at the issues mentioned in this letter from a humanitarian point of view before judging it as a political issue.

Why should people get wrapped up in the culture of terror and violence? Do you really think that an organisation with a clear Stalinist ideology could be pushing for freedom?

Do you know that the right to marry is set out as one of the basic rights of human beings in the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights? And the same right has been denied inside Mojahedin Khalq Organisation. Do you know that Mr. Ali Naghi Haddadi, Central Committee member of the organisation was executed only because he criticised the policies of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation?

The Hambastegimeli website (official site of terrorist group MKO) has quoted you on November 18, 2006 that:

“We, as many others, believe that regime change should be achieved through supporting organisations who are working to spread of democracy in that country. One of these organisations is Mojahedin Khalq Organisation of Iran.”

I don’t know if they have quoted you correctly or not, but if correct, do you really believe that Mojahedin Khalq Organisation (which is listed as a terrorist organisation by the United States of America and the European Union), or the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), (which is also listed as a front name for a terrorist organisation) is a “democratic organisation”?

Do you really think that Mojahedin Khalq Organisation after two decades of deep involvement in Saddam’s crimes in Iran as well as the massacre of the Iraqi opposition during the dark days of Saddam is a “democratic organisation”?

Have you ever done any research on the points of view of the opposition groups against Islamic Republic of Iran towards the Stalinist Mojahedin Khalq Organisation? Do you know that all opposition groups including the Monarchists, Republicans, Secularists, Nationalist and all independent personalities see the Mojahedin Khalq Organisation as a totalitarian dictatorship?

The Hambastegimeli site also quotes you on November 18, 2006 saying that:

“As a result of deep and widespread research carried out, we now believe that there is very strong argument for taking the name of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation and National Council of Resistance of Iran off the list of terrorist organisations produced by the State Department”.

Dear Mr. Armey,

Please excuse me for asking you a simple question. What is your very strong argument that has convinced you the Mojahedin Khalq Organisation is not a terrorist organisation? While tens of highly specialised and respected research analysts all over the globe have come to the conclusion that it is a terrorist organisation?

Would it not be reasonable to expect your good self to answer the following questions at least to satisfy your own conscience? And please ask the leaders of the organisation, once and for all, to give a clear open and official statement on these questions.

1- Is the organisation (MKO) still committed to “armed struggle” or not? A short statement would perhaps clarify the situation.

2- Are the members of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation allowed to choose a partner and get married according to Article 16 of the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights? This could be announced publicly together with the reasons as to why, for the past 17 years, there has been no marriage or births among the members of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation.

3- Would the leader of Mojahedin Khalq Organisation allow a faction to exist in the organisation – as happens regularly and normally in every political party all over the world – which would perhaps be critical of the leadership of the organisation? Or do all critics and disaffected members face imprisonment and isolation?

Mr. Armey,

To get hold of real evidence about Mojahedin Khalq Organisation; please try to get some concrete answers to the above questions. I now work as a human rights activist and an analyst on Iran and Iraq with speciality on Mojahedin Khalq Organisation. I am ready (of course with personal safety guarantees) to go with your good self to Iraq and Camp Ashraf to show you first hand the prisons, solitary confinement cells, the graves of disaffected members who have been killed by Mojahedin and much more.

Yours sincerely,

Mohammed Hussein Sobhani,

Nejat Society letter to Mr Richard K. Armey

Mr Richard K. Armey

Senior Policy Adviser

Co-Chair, Homeland Security

DLA Piper Rudnick

Gray Cary

1200 Nineteenth Street, NW

Washington, DC, 20036-2412

United States

Dear Mr Armey

With regards, we would like to require your consideration on a matter concerning your latest involvement in the US foreign policy towards Iran. Initially it is worth mentioning that Nejat Society consists of those defected members of Mojahedin-é Khalq Organisation (MKO) who have managed to rescue themselves from the boundaries of the Organisation, and find themselves obliged to strive to help and rescue the members who are still mentally or even physically captive inside the Organisation.

Up to 500 ex-members of MKO have managed to return home to their families since the overthrow of the former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. Nejat Society of course played a vital role with the help of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the Iranian Red Crescent, and other international and domestic bodies as well as the families themselves to safeguard their homecoming.

Around 300 of those who have managed to flee the Organisation are kept in a nearby component under the supervision of “Temporary International Presence Facility (TIPF)”. And evidently there are some 3000 members still left in Ashraf Camp inside Iraq. These people need to be rescued out urgently. 

Several members of MKO have left their families and relatives many years ago to join the MKO ranks with the hope of bringing prosperity and welfare to the Iranians. But on the contrary they were themselves caught up with a dreadful cult that managed to control their minds and lives all together through the years in the boundaries of Ashraf Camp in Iraq.

They practically became part of Saddam Hussein’s Army in the war against Iran. They were misused by the MKO leaders to risk their lives for terrorist activities against their own people for the interest of then ruling Iraqi dictator. Nejat Society is aiming to end these unfortunate people’s misery.

The members and authorities of Nejat Society are well aware that they are facing a fierce tackle. The Mojahedin-é Khalq Organisation of course has adopted a hostile attitude against the Society and has never stopped its intense propaganda aggravation in order to stop the Society helping the MKO members.

All cults, typically try to intimidate their critics and opponents, particularly those who try to help the discontented members out. MKO is no exception. They have a long record of suppressing their despondent members and they have used all forms of mental and physical methods in order to make their followers yield.

Nejat Society has been the subject of all sorts of accusations by the MKO officials because it tries to make the contact of the members with their families possible, something the Organisation is truly terrified of. Nejat Society tries to help the defected members in Iraq who reside in “Temporary International Presence Facility (TIPF)”. This of course is an unforgivable sin from the Organisation’s point of view. Therefore they even try to subject TIPF into harassment. In one word Nejat Society is to save the elements caught up in the MKO and let them live.

We were therefore astonished to learn that you and your firm have risked your status and have become the advocates of MKO in order to whitewash its dreadful deeds in the past and even at the present time. It has happened many times before that MKO has tried to misuse independent sources to gain credibility to counter its past accounts. This has evidently damaged the reputation of those firms severely. We are well aware that the Organisation, like many cults of the same sort, is prepared to spend huge amount of sums to reach its goals.

You might be interested to know that MKO openly supports using violence and aggression as means to reach political objectives. One dreadful example was on the case of the most horrifying terrorist act of the century on September 11th 2001 incident which the Organisation celebrated the occasion in Ashraf Camp in Iraq just after the outbreak of the news.

Here we also wish to draw your attention to the latest report executed by the Human Rights Watch on MKO. The report which is called No Exit was issued on May 2005:

No Exit: Human Rights Abuses inside the Mojahedin Khalq Camps

Iran: Exiled Armed Group Abuses Dissident Members

Opposition Group Seeks Recognition and Support in Western Capitals

“Members who try to leave the MKO pay a very heavy price,”

Finally we wish to call for your attention to the very fact that Mr Alireza Jafarzadeh, the press spokesman of MKO in Washington DC and a consultant to the Fox News, “joined the Mujahedin-e Khalq . . ., and became a fanatically dedicated member, even going so far as to volunteer to set himself on fire outside the U.N. Headquarters building in New York City to draw attention to the MEK’s cause”. (Scott Ritter, Target Iran, Nation Books)

Iraqis Welcome Revelations on MKO

Finally, the Iraqi government announced that it has "undeniable evidence proving that the MKO trains terrorists and takes part directly in terrorist attacks against Iraqi people".

Like all Iraqis, I also wonder why the issue had not been revealed before.

Earlier, we had warned the government on the activities of this wretched terrorist organization. In this regard, please look at part of my article on 10.28.2006 that was published by several Iraqi websites.

In that article, I warned the government on its silence about the crimes and illegal activities of this organization:

"I’m surprised because the Iraqi Governing Council ordered the expulsion of this organization from Iraq but it has not been executed. Here, we remind the government of Iraq that they should execute the order and expel the hypocrites from out country. The elements of this group support the remnants of Saddam’s ousted regime and back them militarily and logistically; MKO trains them how to use different kinds of weapons. The government should expel them from Dyalah".

Now the government has emphasized that it is going to act against the MKO. Although too late, it should be appreciated. In this regard, we warn the government on the suspicious activities of Adnan al-Dulaimi and his son. He is the leader of terrorists. He should be arrested and tried.
