a U.S. official said”as delicate negotiations between the UN, the United States, the Iraqis, and the MEK continue, the role of these often paid advocates [on behalf of MEK] is becoming even more unhelpful and potentially dangerous.”..
The MEK aka MKO/PMOI seems to believe it can keep control of Camp Ashraf, its longtime compound near the Iran-Iraq border, and Clinton will still be under pressure to delist the group, this official said.”What bothers all of us working for a peaceful solution is that the MEK seems to believe all they have to do is hold firm and do whatever they want. They are being encouraged in this view by some of their American supporters..
Several times I have noticed that different spokespersons of the US Department of State have indicated that the MEK/MKO/PMOI can show it is distancing itself from its violent past if they leave Camp Ashraf. Do they really believe so? Does the State Department believe that physically leaving a camp proves a change in the ideology and beliefs of such group?..
Nevertheless, all of Abedini’s previous articles remain archived on HuffPo. Furthermore, Greenwald points out that”The Huffington Post has also repeatedly published Ali Safavi, who is also..There’s yet another MeK/NCRI /MKO spokesman and propagandist who also regularly posts articles on HuffPo: Alireza Jafarzadeh.

A wave of American leaders have illegally lined up to get their slice of the MEK/MKO/PMOI bankroll for speaking on their behalf…The end-game of all this bought and paid for rhetoric is a writ entered on June 1, 2012 to the United States Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C. asking Hillary Clinton, to review the designation of MEK ..
the Rajavis say that a member of the MEK aka MKO/PMOI has to offer their blood and breath to the leadership. They continue that, if any member is not willing to offer his/her life for the cause of the group, his or her life is Haram (forbidden).
