The voices supporting the MEK/MKO/PMOI are ignoring the lessons of some of the most catastrophic U.S. foreign-policy mistakes in the past few decades, urging Washington to repeat history. Overhyping the threat of an adversary and blindly supporting groups opposing it led to the creation of Al Qaeda in Afghanistan …
Masoud Banisadr, a former MEK/MKO/PMOI member (an Iranian terrorist organisation) said; “Terrorism is like any other virus. It attacks through our weaknesses.” He pointed out that as long as there are “open gates” that allow the virus to spread, cults and extremist groups will have a free hand to continue. What really needs to be tackled …
Once the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO) was removed from the list of foreign terrorist organizations of the US department of State, it was believed that it would surely use its lobbying campaign to achieve US financial and military sponsorship. Their support for a group that until less than two years ago was designated a terrorist organization and described by the US State Department as “fundamentally undemocratic”….
Washington wanted to permanently base US troops in the country, and Maliki rejected this proposal, demanding the permanent withdrawal of all US forces by the end of 2011. Maliki purged Iraq of the US-sponsored terrorist organization the Mujahideen-e-Khalq (MEK) which had waged a decades-long campaign of terrorism …
The adept propaganda apparatus of MKO/MEK/PMOI mixes the huge sums of money with huge sums of deception in order to portray the organization the way the audiences want it to be.Among human rights advocates it wears the mask of human rights defenders and shows itself as a prototype of a favored society. As the most colorful motto of the group, the leaders use slogans in support of gender equality and freedom of women….
This week Maryam Rajavi travelled to Geneva, as a publicity stunt, where she talked about everything under the sun, posing simultaneously as both a humanitarian personality and the leader of an opposition group. This prompted many victims of the MEK/MKO/PMOI to write against what she said, naming her as ‘at the top of the list of human rights abusers …
Regarding heavy expenses and large amounts of money, energy and time the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO) spends to portrait itself as a pro-democracy movement, its so-called Great Gathering in Villepinte Paris, was expected to be addressed by at least a few Iranian political and intellectual figures, as it is usual in other oppositions’ meetings and conferences.
the MEK aka MKO/PMOI has claimed all sorts of spurious, self-serving things about what it represents. Despite being a bizarre authoritarian cult with Marxist and quasi-Islamist views, it now pretends to be exactly what Westerners want an Iranian exile group to be. It doesn’t matter to the MEK’s American fans that it is lying about its political views, and they are obviously not worried about reciting those lies for Western audiences
Even if the MKO/MEK/PMOI is able to wipe its history of cooperating with terrorist extremists –there are many reports of links between the Cult of Rajavi and other terrorist groups including Jundullah and its new affiliate Jaish aladl– its association with Israeli Empire cannot be neglected because in this case this is Israel that decides how, when, and where to use its proxy.
For two weeks the MEK aka MKO/PMOI has carefully ignored the major news concerning the situation of Gaza.
