Every big- and middle-name Democrat and Republican loves raking in fees to speak to the exiled Iranian Marxist guerilla group MEK, an official member of the State Department’s terrorist group list..Of course Newt Gingrich did this. What’s more fascinating is how working journalist Clarence Page of the Chicago Tribune found himself in such a position..
The latest hypocritical twist in the Zionist extremist-directed campaign against Iran has seen an Iranian terrorist group[MKO/MEK/PMOI], long on the State Department’s “banned” list, move towards recognition and “legitimacy” because it now can be used to carry out attacks inside Iran…
The group has been involved in targeted assassinations as recently as January 2012, previously working with Israeli intelligence agency Mossad to carry out five known targeted killings since 2007, according to Iranian state sources as well as U.S. government officials. The most recent attack in January of this year killed Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, a nuclear scientist.
The firestorm began in early February 2012 after anonymous White House officials accused the group of assassinating several Iranian nuclear scientists with the help of the Israeli government. Media coverage gained further traction after reports surfaced about alleged payments made by the MEK to former, high-ranking U.S. officials in exchange for ..
The U.S. State Department on Tuesday warned Iranian exile group Mujahideen-e Khalq, or MEK, to comply with its relocation from Iraq’s Camp Ashraf to Camp Hurriya if it hopes to be removed from the United States’ list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations.,,
There are increasing indications that the anti-Iranian Mujahedin-e-Khalq Organization, known as the MEK or MKO, is working with al-Qaida to topple the U.S.-backed Iraqi government, even though it seeks to be removed from the U.S. State Department’s terror list, according to a report in Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin.
Mark Dankof spoke with Anne Singleton and Dr Paul Sheldon Foote about the Mojahedin-e Khalq/MKO/MEK/PMOI terrorist group. The discussion covered issues concerning the MEK’s role in the US and Israel, France and Iraq. Is the MEK a danger to the US is one of the questions asked…
Opponents of delisting say it serves no useful purpose, saying that MEK’s alignment with Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war has led to it being universally reviled…They say that delisting would only needlessly provoke Iran during a period of sensitive negotiations over making its nuclear program more transparent.
what with MEK members still strutting around in the halls of Congress and paying large sums of money to various officials to campaign for them, never mind the MEK spokesmen who show up on Fox and HuffingtonPost to peddle their propaganda… apart from all that, the fact is that no one in Iran really gives a damn what the US State Department’s opinion on the matter is anyway.
Last month the senior Obama officials lied to the American public about any U.S. involvement in the M.E.K. assassinations, but a former senior intelligence official told Hersh that the U.S. provides intelligence for M.E.K. operations. “The US broke international laws, helped finance terrorism ..
