The United States government’s intelligence community has prepared a National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) on Iran, but the White House has decided that it is not “finished” yet and has decided to postpone any decision on issuing it until after the November elections. NIEs are the government’s document of record on international issues that confront the United States and they are supposed to be both impartial and definitive. ….
The MKO’s electronic newsletter, Mojahed, in its issue 148, 8 November mostly covering the reports of Maryam Rajavi’s trip to Norway, dedicated its first three pages to the details of the trip and the warm welcome she received from the reporters on her arrival saying: “Multitudes of the papers and TV networks” reporters already awaited her arrival”.
The deliberate silence occurs at a time when MKO wrestle with the encountered predicaments in Iraq by taking advantage of the internal chaos and the deepened rift between the opponent factions and al-Maliki’s government. Mojahedin’s propaganda machine has never stopped dispersing the threats that democracy in Iraq is unattainable unless through the support of Mojahedin as it was advertised through the statement ..
Western leaders are scratching their heads in desperate search for a new Middle East policy as the dire situation in Iraq worsens and tensions in Lebanon and Palestine rise.It does not mean that Lord Corbett favors a permanent anarchy in the Middle East, no, heaven forbid, but that he conceives the West is unable to find the appropriate apparatus to solve the problem. Criticizing engagement of Iran to end the crisis ..
The panic, however, was not over events in Iraq or Iran – to where over 500 Mojahedin members have already been safely repatriated under an ongoing amnesty agreement – but over the realignment of the political map of the US government in which Rajavi’s erstwhile supporters were the main losers.
The actual fate of the 3,000 remaining residents of Camp Ashraf is the last of Rajavi’s concerns;
Following the fall of dictatorial regime in 2003, coalition forces surrounded the MKO and forced them to give up their arms but allowed them to stay in their camp. Several MKO members in Iraq left the country to get to a European nation but many others remained in MKO camps. Some others started serving remnants of Baath party and were actually welcomed by Baathists who considered them as the guests of Saddam.
For nearly two decades, Mojahedin have continued to predict the Islamic Republic’s collapse. In all these years, unpredicted and unapproachable regional, domestic and international crises were said to have weakened the pillars of the Islamic rule to bring about its collapse. They had the least attention to people’s role and social factors in all these years. In 1995 presidential election for example, Mojahedin were shocked to see that Khatami’s victory swept all other major rivals ..
The first unfavorable outcome of Saddam’s fall for Mojahedin was their disarmament by the coalition forces. Consequently, Massoud Rajavi, in justifying the situation, announced that between the arms and arms-masters, namely the Americans, they preferred the latter. Mojahedin hoped that the future would grant them the opportunity of being rearmed. For them, belief in armed struggle and holding it dear had priority over its practice.
Iraqi General Hassan Shati pointed to clashes in Dyala province for getting the control of this province and said:”Some groups and individuals that try to affect the political process in Iraq have close ties with the Mojahedin-e Khalq organization. These people disrupt the order of Dyala and the police forces of the region struggle for their lives.”
Abbas Davari first started insulting Ms. Afarinandeh and then tried to hide the realities of Camp Ashraf. He even went further to link Radio Farda to Iran!”Even the Pentagon, in its report on Sept. 27, protested to the services of Radio Farda’s agents for the mullahs in Iran. The scandal is so great that The Ministry of Defense has asked for a review on the activities of this radio.
