MKO defectors in Tirana

Photos of Palestinian children killed by Israeli bombs in Gaza are widely published in media outlets while
the propaganda websites of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO) reluctantly cover the Gaza crisis, and most of the times they ignore the whole story. Israeli deadly strikes on civilians in Gaze are totally ignored by the MKO. The group’s media only circulates some trivial news on the crisis.
The MKO’s lack of enthusiasm and sympathy for the slaughter of Palestinians stems from the decade-long alliance of the group with Israeli Intelligence agencies. The notorious alliance includes financial, military, operational and spying cooperation that aims to demonize the Iranian Government. Their purpose is to curtail the nuclear program by any possible means.
According to various reports the allegations on the Iranian nuclear program was actually forged by Israel and then handed to the MKO agents. The most recent account on the Israeli-MKO alliance to deceive the world community was authored by Arron Merat of the VICE News. Merat confirms that the Iranian nuclear program has been proved peaceful," The two most recent National Intelligence Estimates in 2007 and 2011, representing the best judgments of 16 US spy agencies, concluded that the Islamic Republic is not pursuing nuclear weapons."
As a matter of Fact the NIE report was not able to face the Israeli long-time propaganda to demonize Islamic Republic. "Israel wanted to convince the US that both Israel and the US are facing a major strategic threat in the Middle East, and the source of that threat was an Iran which was embarking on a program of WMDs,” Peter Jenkins, a former British ambassador to the IAEA, explained to Arron Merat. “They were worried that as the Cold War was ending, Israel would cease to be seen in the US, as it had been up to 1990, as a valuable partner in an unstable part of the world.”
The fear mongering Campaign launched by Zionist regime was then paired with the MKO propaganda against Iran. The alleged lab top document on the Iranian nuclear activities – which was then considered as the base for the entire allegations about Iran’s intention to build a nuclear bomb—had originated from the MKO.
Merat once more confirms Gareth Porter’s thoroughly investigated report on the fake Israeli document on Iran’s nuke. He states, "Karsten Voigt, the coordinator of German-North American relations in the German Foreign Office, publically disputed Powell’s remarks, stating that Europe “shouldn’t let their Iran policy be influenced by single-source headlines” and noting that the laptop had in fact come from “an Iranian dissident group” — a veiled reference to the exiled, eccentric Mujahideen al Khalq (MEK) group."
The author notices that in 2013 Voigt clarifies that the MKO was not a credible source. The term "doubtful" was used by Voigt to show the German Intelligence agencies’ concern over the US decision making.
To clarify the close relation between the MKO and Israel Arron Merat notes, "Reports suggest that Israel used the MEK to leak satellite photography of Iran’s Natanz nuclear enrichment facility in a much-publicized scare back in 2002."
He then completes the narrative of this lethal alliance by referring to Seymour Hersh’s well known report on NBC News citing that "Israel financed and trained MEK units that assassinated five Iranian nuclear scientists between 2007 and 2012."
Regarding the deep alliance and mutual services between the MKO and Zionists, the group’s today approach on not covering Israeli atrocities in Gaza is not surprising. The MKO has to preserve its new sponsors after heavy losses it sustained under the collapse of its former sponsor, Saddam Hussein.

Following a meeting in Paris on June 21, 2014 to share their experiences on living within the MKO Cult , the former members of the terror-cult of Rajavis gathered in Saint Michelle Square, Paris. Books, flyers and Placards on the MKO crimes were distributed. Defectors explained true substance of the MKO and its cult-like terrorist history to French citizens and Iranians including passengers or France residents.

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO) are both groups of zealous extremists left over from the days of crisis in Iraq. They are both supported by a group
of Western high profiles.
Western supporters of these extremists are shadowy people about their real intentions. Members of the European Parliament who back the MKO as what they call "Resistance" and the ISIS as what they call "part of popular uprising" hardly ever like to go on public record supporting terrorist extremist like the MKO and ISIS unless it is the highest priority which is their common enemy in the region, Islamic Republic of Iran. This means that terrorism designations are fundamentally political choices according to such Western politicians.
The so-called Grand Iranian Gathering was attended by dozens of purchased politic men who praised the MKO and its brother ISIS. While the main objective of the meeting was to support the MKO’s so-called resistance, the cult leader Maryam Rajavi seized the opportunity to violently lash out against Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and rejoice over the progress achieved by the ISIS.
The ISIS atrocities in Iraq were claimed by the MKO as victories of "Iraqi revolutionary forces and tribes"! The group’s opportunistic strategy sees its survival in the achievements of the so-called Islamic State that seeks to seize the entire Islamic countries in the region.
Today, in the chaotic situation of Iraq and Syria, the MKO might be the last thing that the international community pays attention to. Thus the MKO resorts to any notorious force that opposes Iraqi and Iranian states. It contributes with them, tries to get involved with them just to draw the world’s attention to itself.
Maryam Rajavi’s meeting with Ahmed Jarba the head of Syrian opposition two months ago was another effort made by the MKO to get itself seen in the region’s equation. To obtain this goal the group’s skillful propaganda bought officials and audience and held its annual gathering –this year—to demonstrate its support for the Saddamist extremists whose leader claimed to be the Califat of all Muslims around the world.
Maryam Rajavi perhaps dreams of ruling one of the provinces in the map of ISIS’s territory 5-year plan !

At the end of May, when an ISIS fighter returning home from Syria carried out a deadly attack at the Jewish Museum in Brussels killing reportedly 4, the Europe got to the fact that the violence doesn’t stop at its
external borders .
The Islamic States of Iraq and al-Sham (SIS) prevailed in recruiting more people, and obtain weapons and money from different sources. This concerned the Western states that once supported and armed the group against the legal government of Syria and Iraq.
The ISIS terrorist group which has now organized a terrorist army seems to have plan to tangle with the West.
A senior U.S. official, who spoke to CNN on condition of anonymity, said that events in Syria and Iraq are dominating discussions in the counter-terrorism community. The official said ISIS was now focused on Iraq, but "the big concern" was that it will shift its attention to the West — identifying, recruiting and training Western individuals to return to their homelands as hardened, combat-trained extremists.[1]
European governments estimate that at least 1,400 of their citizens are fighting as ISIS jihadists but the true numbers may be higher—one British parliamentarian said that as many as 1,500 Britons have fought in Syria, compared to an official estimate of 500. [ 2] Authorities in France believe some 800 French nationals have travelled to Syria, or intend to. Analysts believe as many as 100 American citizens have made the trek.[3]
on the other side, the Mujahedin Khalq terrorist group which has already been active supporting the extremists in the region or elsewhere, didn’t hesitate hailing and supporting blatantly the so called Islamic government of Iraq and the Levant(ISIL/ISIS), despite the shocking news and gruesome photos of the mass killings and savage crimes the ISIS commit in Iraq and against ordinary people. Instead the group supporters in the European Parliament downplayed the horrors of ISIS’ actions claiming the violent acts were “part of a popular uprising” against Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. [4]
The military equipments and armored vehicles of the MKO reportedly were seen as being used by the elements of ISIS.
In their annual gathering in Paris to hail their vicious past, Maryam Rajavi the so called president elect of the MKO rejoiced over the progress achieved by the ISIL.[5]
Meanwhile, the French Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization stating:” "France has no contact with the Organisation of the People’s Mujahideen of Iran which is known for resorting to violence,"
Dr. Webster Griffin Tarpley, an author and historian from Washington, in an interview by PressTV to discuss the reason behind the France recent condemnation of the MKO says:” When you see a group like ISIS which is similar in many ways to the terrorists of the MEK, obviously there is a feeling in the MEK I would guess that they have got to get involved, that they have got to contribute, they have got to make themselves heard or they are not going to get the funding that they are accustomed to getting”.[6]
The Mujahedin Khalq Organization’s support and mutual cooperation to the extremist groups in the region seems to be – -in addition to its terrorist nature -based on the fact that the group depends on crises to secure its survival.
While Syria and Iraq experiencing unrest the MKO has been active supporting the insurgents and saboteurs.
In late august 2012, a number of MKO terrorists detained by the Syrian government confessed that the MKO is training the militants on Turkish soil near the border with Syria. [7]
After the downfall of Saddam Hussein the MKO has been active in supporting Baath Party elements and other terrorist and extremist groups against the legal government of Iraq who wants the MKO out of the country.
Anyway, the group’s supports and mutual services to terrorists and extremists haven’t brought anything good for them. It may lose its years-long stronghold in France, as it did in Iraq; Camp Ashraf.

Year after year, the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO) holds its so-called Grand Gathering in Villepinte, Paris where a large crowd –including paid Western former politicians, black Africans and
European students– is assembled from all over the world. Ordinary attendees who are eager to go on a free trip to the most eye-catching European capital are bused to the gathering show by different means of propaganda effectively used by the MKO.
Although the leader of the MKO cult of personality Maryam Rajavi claims that "today’s gathering reflects the will of the Iranian people from all walks of life", the documented reports, photos and testimonies of the attendees of previous Villepinte rally has always proved the opposite.
Just like a tradition these revealing stories are published a few days after the alleged Grand Gathering every year. You may remember the Polish students who could not resist the offer of a three-day trip to the French capital for only 6 Euros! [1]
Or you must recall the diary of a Kyrgyz student Alina Alymkulova who recounted in Radio Free Europe how she was recruited to travel from Prague to Paris to attend a rally for the MKO in June 2013. [2]
But this year’s gathering was encountered with an immediate harsh reaction by the French Government. French Foreign Ministry spokesman Romain Nadal criticized the People’s Mujahedeen of Iran, or Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, for “its violent and non-democratic inspirations,” ‘’cult nature” and “intense campaign of influence and disinformation”, reported the Associated Press. [3]
Romain Nadal also stated that France has no contact with the MKO "which is known for resorting to violence". The group has "no legal existence in France in the form of an Organization," Nadal stressed referring to its "sectarian practices". "We express our greatest reservations faced with the intense lobbying and disinformation campaign being carried out" by the MKO, He warned. [4]
While Rajavi criticizes the Unites States and the United Nations for their failure to relocate residents of camp Liberty in third countries, the expenses of organizing such a huge rally – at least one hundred politicians are offered first class flights and luxurious hotels in Paris by the MKO propaganda arm— could have been spent for the resettlement process of 3000 individuals who are taken as hostages by the cult leaders in the critical situation of Iraq.
The long list of former Western high profiles –mostly from warmonger parties– who address the MKO rally in Villepinte indicates that the rally is actually a misinformation campaign that never seeks the aspirations of the Iranian public. It is absolutely a heavy-funded act of propaganda for Maryam Rajavi to show off its fake prominence among Iranians.
