The government rejects the existence of any organization on its territory which works against the neighbouring countries, including the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran aka MEK/MKO/PMOI, which stained its hands with the blood of the people,”stressing that”the Government was exerting pressure such as to remove the organization from the country…
“Whether the MEK should or should not be listed is one thing, but the law is very clear that third parties and intermediaries don’t insulate you,”says David Cole, a professor of law at Georgetown University.”Think about how the United States would respond if [American] citizens were actively working with a PR organization to support the legitimacy of Hamas in Gaza? Here, the only thing protecting the people involved is that they include the former homeland security secretary..
Robert Hunter, a retired ambassador now with the National Defense University, says the residents of Camp Ashraf ought to be protected. But, he adds,”getting into bed with these people, I think, would be a profound mistake.”Hunter describes the MEK aka MKO/PMOI as a Marxist cult, whose members have learned the ways of Western public relations.
… We wonder why international organizations including the UN are silent about the case. The UNAMI team in Baghdad invites the Iraqi government to respect the principals of human rights in relation to Camp Ashraf, but no one is trying to learn what Rajavi is doing to his own people inside the Camp. The inside of the Camp has never been searched or inspected. As everyone is warning against a human catastrophe by the leaders..
“This cult accompanied the executed Iraqi criminal (Saddam) in all his policies and did everything to put Saddam’s orders in action,”Chalabi said..He said Saddam and his regime extended all-out support to the MKO/MEK/PMOI.”For instance, they were bribed with $60mln payments that they received from Saddam each month.”He noted that he has already cautioned Iraq’s political and religious leaders…
As was expected, despite the propaganda by Rajavi’s terrorist gang about statement of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, And despite the misuse of the term”refugee”, Since UNHCR’s action is based on the recognition of individuals and depends on interviewing them, Propaganda maneuvering, Masood Rajavi has began disrupting it. In this regard, in its last announcement, MeK has referred to the Maryam Rajavi’s warning…
Although UNHCR won’t require the dissidents to disassociate from the group, it said in a recent statement that refugee status could be granted only to individuals and not to the group as a whole. In effect, the MEK aka MKO/PMOI, as its known by its Farsi language initials, appears to be on the verge of accepting the demand by U.S. Ambassador James Jeffrey in July to disband as a military formation.
A senior advisor to the Iraqi prime minister blasted the US and Europe’s staunch support for the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), and said the terrorist group should be expelled from Iraq.”Legally speaking, the presence of the MKO in Iraq under any title is against the law and they should be expelled from the country,”Abdulhalim al-Zahiri said..
Mr. Arango submitted questions by email, which elicited a lengthy response from the MEK.The problem was not cured, however, because so little of the MEK response was incorporated in the story. One simply does not learn from this story why the group seems so intransigent about its unwillingness to relocate, disband or accept an end to American protection. The MEK’s point of view on this was an essential, but missing, element in a story that so thoroughly reported on the ambassador’s perspective.
Mojahedin will resort to every possible means to throw a spanner in the works of the UNHCR. Now Maryam Rajavi the wife of the leader of the Mojahedin has issued the following clear statement from her HQ in France: “ … we will not allow the line of the mercenaries Maliki and Barezani and the strategy of their masters, the Iranian regime, to prevail under the pretext of interviewing people one by one and …” and she continues “… all the Mojahedin members should only be taken for interviews using helicopters …” ..
