MKO, Part of Zionist Lobby

The scandal of infiltration of some people-affiliated with Zionist lobby- into the US government and spying for Israeli government, with the purpose of directing the United States towards a war on Iran, is a reality that shouldn’t be ignored.

FBI and US Justice Department have concluded in their investigations that some anti-Iran figures want to instigate neoconservaties against Iran.

“Larry Franklin”, who’s been sentenced to 12 years in prison, is a tough anti-Iran figure who transferred Pentagon and NSA’s intelligence on Iran to AIPAC officials and Israeli diplomats. He tried to transfer secret reports on Iran’s threat for Israel and US interests to Zionist AIPAC lobby, with the hope that AIPAC could press the US to take tougher stance towards Iran.

Larry Franklin has admitted having contacts with two senior officials of AIPAC: Steven Rosen former director of AIPAC, Wiseman and an Israeli diplomat in the United States.

According to a file presented by US Attorney General, Rosen and Wiseman tried since 1999 to penetrate US officials and get sensitive intelligence through contacts.

David Sutterfield, second American diplomat in Iraq, gave secret information to Rosen in 2002.

Larry Franklin, formerly deputy of Douglas Feith, had close relationship with some US neo-conservatives outside Bush administration. The case also includes the names of Richard Rhodes, head of the Pentagon’s Office of Net Assessment, and Michael Ledeen, an American Enterprise Institute scholar who arranged a meeting between Franklin and several Iran opposition figures. Iranian oppositions gave them some information on Iran’s threat for US forces in the region.

With a brief look at the type of propagandistic attacks by these people (who work to guarantee Israel’s interests -even if its costs Iran’s destruction- and consider Iran an obstacle in the way of killing innocent Palestinians) and considering the timing of MKO’s shows under the name of”revelations”, the roots of MKO’s propagandas (particularly in the US) could be well understood.

Douglas Feith is behind the scenario, the performance of part of which has been given to the terrorist MKO; in return for this cooperation, MKO would be protected in Iraq.

All their purposes can be summarized in”efforts for instigating Bush administration to attack Iran, before Iraq crisis could effect decisions of Bush administration”.

The presence of David Sutterfield in Iraq should also be considered a part of warmongers’ plans.

Since this policy has repeatedly been revealed (in Irandidban.com and elsewhere) and there are solid evidences on the issue, FBI officials should clarify the MKO’s dangerous role in spreading propaganda to instigate public opinion against Iran and prevent them from conducting illegal anarchical activities.

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

Iranian ‘terror group’ divides Washington

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20 (UPI) — An Iranian dissident group that the U.S. State Department considers a "foreign terrorist organization" continues to enjoy support in Congress while being protected by the American military in Iraq.

The Mujahedin-e-Khalq organization, sometimes called the People’s Mujahedin of Iran, or PMOI, has been on the State Department’s list of foreign terrorist groups since 1997 — even as it enjoys widespread support on Capitol Hill. In addition, the U.S. military has allowed the MeK to maintain an operational training facility in Iraq, said Gregg Sullivan, a State Department spokesman.

The facility, Camp Ashraf, is located about 60 miles northeast of Baghdad and houses approximately 3,800 Iranian exiles who are opposed to the regime in Tehran, according to experts. The MeK disarmed in 2003 as part of an agreement with the United States, the New York Times reported, but the exact conditions of that disarmament are unclear. Lt. Col. Guy Rudisill, a spokesman with the Multi-National Force-Iraq, which oversees the camp, said in an e-mail to United Press International that the MeK has disarmed and that its members have signed statements in which they "voluntarily rejected terrorism and violence." But Sullivan told UPI on Dec. 8 that the group has given up only its "heavy weaponry" while retaining small arms, and that its members "conduct training."

The State Department maintains that the MeK is a terrorist organization and should be identified alongside groups such as al-Qaida and Hamas. Sullivan discounted the suggestion, made by supporters of the MeK, that the group has not carried out terrorist attacks in more than 15 years.

"The argument from which we approach it is [that] this is a group that is engaged in terrorist activity. It’s been well-documented in the patterns of global terrorism," Sullivan said. "I would disagree with the characterization that they’ve been out of the business for a long time. I don’t think that’s an accurate assessment. From our standpoint — though there may be some folks out there who may find [the MeK’s] viewpoint appealing — we think it sends the wrong message in the war on terror to distinguish between ‘good terrorists’ and ‘bad terrorists.’"

On Capitol Hill, however, the MeK has received open support, including a statement made in early December by Rep. Ed Towns, D-N.Y., to the Committee for Camp Ashraf Residents, an advocacy group that works to protect the camp from Iranian reprisals. In the statement, which the committee posted on its website, Towns said, "We must take meaningful steps to provide safety and security to both Iraqi[s] and PMOI members in Iraq."

Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., has also expressed support for the MEK in the past and has said that the Clinton administration only added the group’s name to the State Department’s list of terrorist organizations in the first place to "curry favor with the Iranian regime," according to news sources.

Repeated calls to Towns’ offices in Brooklyn and Washington concerning the MeK were not returned; nor did Tancredo return a call.

Although Towns and Tancredo have publicly expressed support for the MeK, the two representatives are far from alone on Capitol Hill, according to a second State Department official, who asked not to be identified.

"There are about 100 members of Congress that, believe it or not, find the MeK useful," the official told UPI.

At the Pentagon, meanwhile, the Defense Department does not openly support the MeK, but views the organization as "protected persons under the Fourth Geneva Convention," according to Mark Ballesteros, a spokesman who was not authorized to provide further details. Ballesteros said the determination that the MeK is entitled to protected status was made by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld.

The Fourth Geneva Convention guarantees a number of basic rights to MeK members in Iraq, including the right to protection from danger or violence and the right not be repatriated to Iran — where the group’s members could face torture or death — said Steven Schneebaum, counsel for the Committee for Camp Ashraf Residents.

But legal experts said the Fourth Geneva Convention does not prevent the United States from prosecuting any would-be "terrorists" at Camp Ashraf — and American authorities have not done so. The New York Times reported in 2004 that a 16-month U.S. investigation into MeK members at Camp Ashraf resulted in no prosecutions.

Now, the subject of what goes on at Camp Ashraf remains hotly contested, with conflicting reports not only about whether the MeK is completely or only partially disarmed, but also whether the group has committed human rights violations against its own members to prevent them from leaving Camp Ashraf. A Human Rights Watch report released earlier this year concluded that the MeK abused its members, but a later report by a delegation from the European Parliament called the initial findings "devoid of any truth."

While controversy surrounds Camp Ashraf and the MeK, one observer said U.S. support for the organization in its fight against the Iranian regime — whether implicit or explicit — only worsens relations between Washington and Tehran. That’s because the MeK is not an effective tool against Iran and supporting the group only subjects the United States to charges of hypocrisy in the war on terror, according to Gideon Rose, managing editor of Foreign Affairs magazine.

"Realistically, I’m not opposed [to supporting the MeK]. You could make a case that if they were extremely effective and had some realistic potential for toppling or seriously undermining the regime in Iran, it might be worth using them," Rose said. "What makes it somewhat hard to understand is that nobody actually believes that. Most serious observers don’t see [the MeK] as having any significant gains to bring to the table, except for the fact that they enrage or annoy Tehran."

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

When Making a Revolution, Allies Matter

‘ font-size: 10pt”>An Iranian opposition group that figures prominently on the State Department’s list of international terrorist organizations will openly flaunt U.S. law today, when supporters demonstrate in Lafayette Park in Washington, DC, just across the street from the White House.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Organizers of the January 19 demonstration openly refer to the People’s Mujahedin Organization of Iran, banned from operating in the United States, as the "largest and most popular resistance group inside Iran."

‘ font-size: 10pt”>The former Shah called them "Marxist-Islamists," because they had been trained by the Soviet Union in guerilla warfare and supported Khomeini.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>The FBI has been tracking the activities of the Mujahedin, known in Persian as the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), since the mid-1970s, when MEK members assassinated U.S. military officers then working in Iran. MEK members actively took part in the 1979 seizure of the U.S. embassy in Tehran, according to a U.S. government report.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Despite this track record, the FBI has refused to ban demonstrations by supporters of the banned group, who have formed a variety of organizations ostensibly headed by U.S. citizens.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>An FBI spokesman in Washington, DC told FrontPage magazine on the eve of the White House protest that the demonstrators were "exercising their 1st Amendment Rights. Whether they have been acknowledged by the United States Government as a terrorist group is a separate matter. Any gathering of people to protest is Constitutionally-protected and we acknowledge that and will do nothing to quash it."

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Why does any of this matter? Because the MEK has convinced many Members of Congress that they are the "democratic alternative" to the clerical regime in Tehran and deserve U.S. government support.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>MEK supporters roam the halls of Congress asking unsuspecting twenty-something aides if their Member will sign a "Dear Colleague" letter calling for freedom and democracy in Iran. They have conducted similar influence operations in Britain, France, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Canada, and elsewhere.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Iranian-Americans openly refer to MEK leader Massoud Rajavi as the "Pol Pot" of Iran, because they believe he would conduct wholesale massacres of his political opponents should the current regime implode and the MEK seize power through organized street violence. In the group’s "16 points" for a future "democratic" Iran, they promise political freedom to all &endash; except their political enemies.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Rajavi has insisted that MEK members divorce their spouses, and live in communist-style collective houses. In 1983, he divorced his own wife &endash; the daughter of former president Abolhassan Banisadr, with whom he had a political falling out &endash; and married the wife of a political rival.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>In 1986,the Rajavis and the top MEK leadership left France for Iraq, where Saddam Hussein extended a warm welcome to the group and gave them weapons and financial assistance.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Following the 1991 Gulf war, Saddam used MEK military forces as shock troops to attack dissident Iraqi Kurds in northern Iraq, an experience that Iraq’s democratically-elected president, former Kurdish leader Jalal Talabani, has never forgotten.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>According to the definitive 1993 Department of State report that led to the banning of the organization’s activities in the United States, the MEK not only killed Americans, but provided hit teams during the 1979 revolution against the Shah that allegedly assassinated thousands of senior Iranian military officers.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Members of Congress worried by the Islamic Republic of Iran’s terrorist record and its nuclear weapons programs in August 1993 (yes, 1993) petitioned then Secretary of State Warren Christopher to open an official U.S. dialogue with the main MEK front organization, the National Council of Resistance.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Christopher’s September 20, 1993 reply was devastating.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>"Concerning contacts with Iranian opposition groups, there are numerous such groups in the United States and abroad that do not espouse violence and whose political aims range from supporting a return of the monarchy to establishing a constitutional democracy. Many focus their efforts on Iranian human rights abuses, and work closely with the UN. Human Rights Committee and private human rights groups. We do meet with representatives of such groups at their request, and believe these contacts are useful as an informational exchange.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>"However, the National Council of Resistance is closely linked to the People’s Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI), also known as the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK). Both groups are led by Masud Rajavi. The Administration maintains a policy of no contacts with the PMOI and, by extension, the NCR. This decision is based on our opposition to the PMOI’s use of terrorism."

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Operating under a number of fronts following the Christopher letter, Mujahedin supporters bundled more than $204,000 in campaign contributions to U.S. Representatives Robert Torricelli (D, NJ) Gary Ackerman (D, NY) and others in Congress, in a failed effort to lift the State Department designation of the group as an international terrorist organization.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Over the past year, a new pro-MEK group known as the "Iran Policy Committee" has sought endorsements from well-known former policy makers, including respected FoxNews commentators Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely and Lt. Gen. Tom McInerny.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>IPC chairman Ray Tanter, a former Reagan administration NSC official, regularly appears at pro-MEK press conferences and has likened a proposed U.S. alliance with the MEK against the mullahs in Tehran to FDR’s alliance with Stalin to defeat Hitler.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Allying with terrorists is not just wrong for strategic reasons. It is just plain wrong. The Rajavi cult has a known track record. They have murdered Americans. They have murdered their fellow Iranians. And their dedication to democratic principles is as thin as the ether of the Internet, created for public consumption.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Promoting the Mujahedin in Iran is no different from supporting former Baathists in Iraq in the vain hope they will do the heavy lifting the U.S. policy and intelligence community is unwilling or unable to do.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>Pro-democracy groups are struggling to be heard and to organize inside Iran, and they deserve urgent and massive U.S. support. President Bush has repeatedly pledged his support for their cause, but until now the State Department has blocked funds appropriated by Congress from reaching groups inside Iran.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>As we skate ever-closer to a nuclear showdown with Iran, we must not in our impatience make the mistake of helping a violent group to overthrow a dedicated and dangerous enemy, in the vain hope they will shed their violent ways once they have achieved victory.

‘ font-size: 10pt”>When making a revolution, it is critical to choose one’s allies well. The future depends on it.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

Terrorism is Terrorists does

"One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter": This is one of the more fatuous opinions about terrorism. Unfortunately, too many people believe it.

While terrorism taints all those who practice it, many prefer to trust insurgents with whom they sympathize. This is always a mistake.

Terrorism has never been precisely defined. Attempts to draw a line through the gray areas where terrorists and guerrillas, or terrorists and gangsters, overlap have always failed. Terrorists often are partners in organized crime and guerrilla campaigns can use terrorism as a strategy.

Most people can recognize terrorism for what it is and general descriptions of the phenomenon have been widely accepted. These point out that terrorism is covert in practice; political in aim; and asymmetric — in that the terrorist has few resources and many targets while those opposed to them have ample resources and few targets. Terrorists are also unaccountable as they answer to no morality but their own ideological constructs.

Few insurgents care to see themselves as skulking cowards, which is why — for example — blowing up office towers, massacring civilians, or murdering off-duty soldiers are seen as heroic acts. Those who sympathize with — for example — the Tamil Tigers or the Japanese Red Army, or the Provisional Wing of the IRA, often state that these actions are regrettable but necessary.

Many of these sympathizers are less than objective. Underground movements do have parallel aboveground political arms that propagandize and raise funds. Moreover, ever since Lenin, insurgents have learned that in pursuit of the "higher" truth (their own goals), "lesser" forms of truth can be dispensed with.

Ireland, Israel and the United States are often cited as nations whose birth was facilitated by these questionable means. However, the American Revolutionary War was not a terrorist campaign — partisans on both sides behaved in ugly ways, but this was no one’s strategy. Both Ireland and Israel took hard action to suppress the IRA and Irgun respectively shortly after independence.

Terrorists might be tolerated by some freedom movements, but their penchant for atrocity and mendacity make them lousy nation-builders.

In its annual listing of international terrorists, the US State Department includes the Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK) and an assortment of aboveground front groups that garner support for it. These include the National Council of Resistance, the People’s Mujahadin of Iran and the Iranian Student’s Society.

The Mujahadin-e Khalq has made much of its record of action against the Iranian theocracy. However, MEK began in the 1960s as a Leftist insurgency — apparently with some Soviet backing — against the Shah.

As widespread opposition to the Shah grew in the 1970s, the Marxism of MEK became infused with Islamic ideology. MEK joined in the Islamic Revolution, but the Mullahs were certainly not prepared to tolerate them either. The survivors fled overseas, or rallied in Iraq — which was just beginning its own opportunistic war against Iran.

In the Iranian Diaspora that followed 1980, members and supporters of MEK spread throughout the Western World. In Canada, members of the group have earnestly solicited funds and preserved links with Canada’s anachronistic Marxist community. They have also attacked the Iranian embassy in Ottawa, as part of a coordinated assault on 13 embassies in Europe and the Americas.

Still, MEK has done itself few favours over the years. Its main base is still in exile in Iraq, and depends on the generosity of Saddam Hussein. By trying to fuse Islam with Marxism, it is not really embraced by Western Leftists or by Muslims. Unlike some other groups, it seems incapable of resorting to organized crime for funding. Its attacks on Iranian targets in the West have attracted little public attention.

So why won’t the Mujahadin-e Khalq call it quits? The attempt by one member, Mahnaz Samadi, to claim refugee status in Canada, suggests that she is not yet ready to give up the struggle — and the whole case rests on whether MEK is a terrorist group or not.

Perhaps her case reflects one last point about terrorist groups… that few of them know when to quit. From Ulster to Colombia to Cambodia, aging insurgencies have continued long after the conditions than generated them have vanished.

There is a trap in terrorism, the self-deception necessary to engage in it means that one can not really give up the fight without victory. To do otherwise means to accept the fact that the cause — and all the sacrifices made for it — were flawed from the beginning. Lacking the courage to do anything else, many insurgents limp on to irrelevance. So goes MEK

One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter? Perhaps a more accurate statement might be one man’s terrorist is everyone’s problem.

Maryam Rajavi

Where does Maryam Rajavi stand?

When Masud Rajavi found out a risk from the organization’s members, looked for a woman who could save him from that abyss. A woman like “Farah Diba”, the Iranian Shah’s wife. In the meantime he fell in love with Maryam Qajar and after a period of liaison with her, divorced Firouzeh BaniSadr and introduced Maryam as the second person of the organization.

Mujahedin’s people propagandized her character and presented her as an outwardly perfect goddess. They held concerts in which they had publicities to attract western people’s attention.

They made a charismatic character of her in order to draw women’s attention to the organization. Pheminist thoughts published in MKO on one hand caused Masud to use it as his own shield and on the other hand, to be worried about replacing of this modern thought instead of his own idea.

When the women were charged with responsibilities and got the high positions, the supporters got angry and started to critisize, some men separated from the MEK. They considered Masud’s new strategies as abusing the women. But will Masud’s wishes be harmonious with Maryam’s feminine ambitions? In 2003, France police arrested her for two weeks. She was accused of using her residence in “Over Sur d’Oise” as a base to launch terrorist attacks. But police were forced to liberate her since the members set themselves on fire in front of Police Station and Iran Embassy.

In the early eighties, Iran witnessed the terror of its high officials and Maryam Rajavi as Masud’s main abettor was accused she was accused of operating terrorist operations, especially after the establishing of National Liberation Army as the military branch of the organization and Maryam was elected as the vice-commandant of the so-called army.

She fled Iran before her death sentence be issued. She had various positions in MKO, until the NCRI members who are completely absorbed by her personality, elected her as Iran President just when Masud pointed out. Therefore she became the executive manager of Masud’s vague ideology and occupied some positions in the organization. She claimed that one third of the organization members are women. On the other hand Iran has placed Maryam and Masud’s names in the list of wanted people and declared that they would never be forgiven. Nowadays Maryam considers herself as the elected president of Iran and tries to collect funds from her supporters from all over the word. She is in the hope of glossing over the accusations of her involvement in Oil – Food program in Iraq. Maryam encouraged her supporters to act terror operations without paying attention to civilians and she is proud of her suicide policy.

Whenever a member of MKO is willing to return to normal life, they take him to their weekly meetings and repress him under high mental pressure of brain washing and repeat this phrase to him:” You were not created for a normal life! Listen to Maryam Rajavi to find a solution to your problems!”

Maryam is also wanted by the US and since 1997 her organization has been in the FTO list. The EU also followed the American policy In 2000. She repeatedly appears on video tapes and asks Jaque Shirak to return the seized funds of the MKO which were found during her arrest operation. She continually talks about a hundred – twenty thousands martyrs and half a million prisoners who are waiting for Bush to end Iran regime and deliver the government to her. She also has used Ahvaz case in order to have Arabs’ attention.

What method does she use and according to which rules does she control her group? She sometimes addresses the members’ suicidal characteristic and asks them to apply Masud’s ideology. She encourages them to die and considers death as a virtue, even though she talks frequently about democracy and secularism.

It has been told that Maryam is Masud’s chain mail. She is the leader of a self – built cult. She has the characteristics of a cult leader. She enjoys a charismatic character and she believes that “the goal justifies the means.” Besides she has gathered a group of people under the cover name of “Iranian Muslim Students Society” and has controlled their minds. Among them she fusses about sexual inequality, she talks about real sexual delight of what the separated members accuse the MKO. The difference between this cult and the other cults and groups is that the MKO is very ambitious and thinks about controlling the entire Iran!?

When in 1980’s Maryam and Masud were expelled from France, they fed themselves with Saddam’s food. She believed in approaching their (Saddam’s and MKO’s) common enemy –Iran. Saddam also gave them an occasion to continue their aggressions.

Where does Maryam stand after the fall of Saddam? Is she the Washington’s winning card? Is she lobbing one of the rooms of the white House among American congress men?

In her last message, she said:”my belief has approached the reality, the US is going to realize that the main solution to deal with Iran can be organized by an Iranian opposition.” On the other hand, a smoke can be seen from Israel Camp which shows that it plans to keep MKO alive in order to use them against Iran as a pressure axis. There is no need to look for Maryam – Saddam Hussein’s colleague. Bush has answered our question with the following phrase:” my country appreciates Iranian’s efforts for freedom”. In addition, he has allocated 3 million $ to support such groups.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

MKO Efforts to Set-Up Crisis in Iraq

Terrorist group of Mujahideen-e Khalq has an active role in stoking the fire of division among tribes of Iraq; the officials of the group, sponsoring terrorists of Diali province, have met a number of tribes’ leaders in Camp Ashraf. In the meetings, MKO has expressed criticism toward the elections in Iraq, announcing it as fraud. It has also warned the Sunni sheikhs that the Shiites want to eliminate all Sunnis in the case of getting to power.

The news published by this group is aimed at taking Iraq into chaos and anarchy. In this regard, MKO has announced that "List 555" has corrupted the votes in large scale in Baghdad, particularly in "Soreh" and "Jamileh" districts and that, supporters of this list have prevented Fili Kurds from casting their votes. On the other hand, they assault the national elected government propagandistically and accuse police and interior ministry of not allowing the participation of Fili Kurds in the elections.

We don’t know why some Iraqi groups are favored this much by the terrorist organization of Mujahideen-e khalq while the history shows that it was involved in massacring Iraqis in the north and that they beat Iraqi citizens in Abu Ghraib district when commuting in the region?

This terrorist group does its best to create new conflicts in the ties between Iran and its neighbors. Particularly, they claimed that Iran sent a truck of forged ballots to Diali province and southern Iraq! Some terrorist partners of this organization are also repeating these claims without having any evidences. Where is this truck? Why it was not shown on TV? Why the drivers, claimed by the MKO to be arrested, are not introduced to the Iraqis?

The propaganda of this organization have targeted the national elected government of Iraq and this itself proves their filthy intents; for the following reasons, this organization should be prosecuted:

1. Interfering in Iraq’s internal affairs, holding meetings and conferences with terrorist leaders in Iraq and supporting terrorists; these acts heighten insecurity in Iraq.

2. Involvement of this group in war crimes of Baath regime and massacring Iraqis in the north and south as well as its participation in attacking neighbors of Iraq, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.

3. Propagandistic activities against Iraqi people, and efforts for making division among Iraqi ethnic groups.

4. Efforts to corrupt the elected government and its ministers.

5. Releasing newspaper without the agreement of Parliament and Iraqi Premiere.

6. Taking advantage of journalists, athletes and sheikhs of some Iraqi tribes for the purposes against Iraq and Iraqis.

We, as Iraqis, ask the UN Security Council, Human Rights Organization, neighboring countries and coalition forces to issue a statement on this terrorist group to call for the trial of the group officials outside Iraq. We ask Arab League to intervene in the issue; and we call on Arab countries not to give shelter to this terrorist group.

Human Rights Abuse in the MEK

The world day of confirming the Charter of Human Right

Because of the world day of confirming the Charter of Human Right

We cherish the ten of December, the anniversary of confirming the Charter of Human Rights.

It is the day of happiness for the black slaves, the downtrodden people of different races, and those who are hungry for freedom.

Many years ago, it seemed to be needed a charter which was being able to make peace all over the world.

In the Charter with thirty matters, it was declared to all government to recognize the human rights, cherish them and try to fulfill their terms. Unfortunately, something else happened. They were the great powers who conquered. The pretended supporters, that are the known dictators, had nothing but war, killing and disturbance.

Nowadays, the human rights are a weapon and a pretext which has been abused by some despotic governors.

In the center of these governments, some groups and organizations had been created, which had sectarian organizations and protected them.

The Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization is one of them which are known by the Iranians. It was an organization which was formed in Iran, and had to leave the country because of armed struggle and protection the terrorism. It took no time, when they went to Saddam’s embrace.

At the top of this sect, it was Rajavi who believed to armed aggression and terrorism. News and information by split members reveals the terrible cases of violating the human rights among this sect.

In order to be more familiar with the black records and the flagrant betrayal of Rajavi and his sect, we are going to point out some cases:

1-To assassinate the American diplomats along with the anti-Imperialist struggles before 1357; to declare the armed struggle with the aim of physical removing of the people; to begin the strategy of blind terror.

2-To hijack along with the extension of terrorist operations and escape from Iran.

3-To contract with regime of BAATH of Iraq.

4- To deceive the Iranian youth, and abroad citizens; and attract them to join the terrorist sect.

5-To deprive the right of freedom, and select the members to have a blindly obedience from Rajavi, who is against the Human Rights’ law.

6-To have a continuous insult to freedom, independence and Islamic ideology of Iranians.

7-To kill thousands of people in military attacks in the frontier between Iran and Iraq.

8-To have a false propaganda, and extent it among Iranian youth.

9-To deceive the Iranian youth, and attract the deceived followers from Iran into Iraq, and then imprison them under a terrible condition.

10-To brainwash the members, and deprive their rights of freedom and rights of reproving.

11-To start a special training to control the members, and amuse them by special teams.

12-To neglect the women rights, and oppress them along with the anti-human aims of Rajavi.

13-To initiate the forced and obligatory wedding until 1991.

14-To declare the ideology of forced divorce.

15-To destroy the base of family, and banish the children through separating them from their parents.

16-To kill the Kurds through the Persian Gulf war, and also massacre the Iraqi Shiites.

17-To bother and torture the unsatisfied members.

18-To get obligation from the members, so that they should never return to their families.

19-To use the label “sexual patients” for those who reject the forced divorces.

20-To challenge with friendly relationships among the members.

21-To have a continuous disagreement with home and family.

22-To declare the obligatory divorce even for those singles who may get married in the future.

23-To deceive Maryam Rajavi, the wife of Mehdi Ibrahim-chi, and marry with her which could be considered as a sectarian trick.

24-To separate between mothers and their children; to forbid the love and kindness between them; to forbid smiling among the members; and to declare that the reflex of sexual ray which may be raised through the natural relationship is against the sect’s law.

25-To forbid any symbols of family such as engagement rings.

26-To force men and women to face each other and declare their great aversions, and then expectorate to each other.

27-To force men and women to cuff each other.

28-To get written obligation, so that they should never leave Iraq.

29-To forbid family visits.

30-To bring the girls (exile children) from foreign countries and force them to get married with members of high layer of the sect, and also with aged members.

31-To imprison the members along with the ideological divorce.

32-To assassinate the characters of members who wished to leave the sect.

33-To change the sets of apartment “H” into horrible prisons; to make barbed wires and tall bulkhead around the Ashraf prisons.

34-To confirm the death sentence for detached members.

35-To confirm the edict of death for families in spring of 1991.

36-To bluff the premature fall of the Islamic regime of Iran, in order to control the members.

37-To exile the infant into European countries, after the collapse of their families.

38-To dissolve the kindergartens and schools in Ashraf prison.

39-To censor the news, so that the members were unaware about the political circumstances of the world.

40-To extend anarchism and anti- human movements, and forbid any relationship among the members.

41-To extend bondage and work without any salary, in order to keep the members busy.

42-To apprehend thousands people with no lawful permission.

62-To play the role of agent provocateur for Saddam during the eight years war between Iran and Iraq, and massacre thousands of Iranian by doing this.

63-To extend the policy of self-burning among the members, and create an awful atmosphere which caused the self-burning of women in Paris.

64-To negate the possessive right for the members, and confiscate all their possessions along the terrorist aims.

65-To torture with cables, and terrible beating, so that they should kneel in front of the pictures of Massoud and Maryam.

66-To torture in football room, in which six persons in two teams of prisoners were being passed while they were being beaten.

67-To take the prisoner in the rifle range and shoot around his body, in order to frighten him.

68-To deceive the Iranians who travel to other countries to seek the job, by some hunting groups belonged to the sect.

69-To send the terrorist teams into European countries to remove the split members from the sect.

70-To create the atmosphere of fear; to menace the split members and beat them.

Now the organization which considers itself as the messenger of peace and freedom has been converted to an awful and anti-human sect through deviation from the principles and rejecting its members’ rights.

The mentioned cases are just a few from the all. Those who want to get more information should research more. Rajavi at the top of a sect has done so many criminal acts by deceiving and capturing the victims.

Now for glorification the charter of the world Human Right we expect the terrorist organization of Mojahedin to be denounced, so that Massoud Rajavi as the leader of the terrorist sect and the accessory of Saddam would be tried.

Former members of the MEK

Our share 2

I Stayed to …

A few days ago, I considered some letters via Iran Efshagar which were related to my relatives. In reply to them, I have prepared an article as the following part of my previous reply, titled “Our Share “.

Once more, when I saw my husband’s picture, I became very happy and took it for my daughter.

And I am also so happy, since I learned that my husband has received my message and now he knows that I’m waiting for him. I am glad now, now that I can learn about my relatives’ health this way.( because there is no other way to contact them)

In your speeches, you didn’t say anything about the way I was arrested!?

The fact is that: when I was sent to Tehran for the second time ( contrary to the first time) you didn’t work on our return plan. In the last moment, when our team was leaving Jalula, I asked:” how do you return us?” you said:” we will return you.” But you didn’t say how. You always, in your justification meeting, told us: “80 percent going and 20 percent returning.” After your first operation you should stay in Iran so that we introduce you other subjects and targets to operate on them”. In other words if after the operation you survived, we would give you so many targets that you finally get arrested. While returning you left us in the hands of smugglers who were working for Iranian government. When we reached the borders you removed the “red boundary” which was made by yourselves intentionally to divulge our track. You had told us to get back to the boundary without arms, not to be able to defend ourselves in case of confrontation with the officials. When we were working on the operation in our base, you just said:” don’t get arrested alive” and you had named this situation ”Red Boundary” and given us four cynide Capsules to kill ourselves. You never spent a minute to tell us how we can keep ourselves alive while getting arrested. You sent us for operation at the same time and region as another team had gone for operation a few blocks away. So while the police was patrolling around that region in Tehran, to pursue the first team, they were able to arrest us.

All the above issues confirms that you had tried your best to drive us to dead in order to have a thicker list of martyrs and use it for your propaganda machine and send other individuals, motivated to take the revenge on us and do another operation and be killed ,in Iran.

But, Because of God’s will, because of our little children, Marjan and I survived.

I stayed here to realize your other face, lies and frauds well, and prevent my compatriot youth from being deceived. I stayed in Nejat Society to denounce your reality more and more and struggle to liberate my relatives and friends. I stayed to inform the families who are not aware of their loved ones for years. I stayed to tell the families that if your children don’t contact with your, its Rajavi’s fault.

Each time I see a family huging their loved one, I get more energy to rescue my other friends.

I found it necessary to point out: I will try my best until all those families have their beloveds in their homelands.

When you talk about my aunt and uncle, you should know that I’m working in Nejat Society for their objectives. Because I’m sure if they were alive and reached your bases, they would certainly separate from you and criticize you.

Recently, I heard from one of my uncle’s friends that when in 1978 and 79, my uncle was a member of the organization, he had some problem with the organization, because he was a religious person, he had criticized them on theological and religious cases and had tried to reform such matters and have Islam as essential in everything . He had seen many people among the cadres who did not say their prayers correctly or even weren’t able to say them. But this reminding didn’t have any results.

Finally, one day in meeting with Masud Rajavi and 9 other people including my uncle, one of the members says something in Masud’s ear. Then they all go to another room preventing my uncle to join them. Then gradually my uncle’s responsibilities in the organization were reduced until 1980 when Masud Rajavi left the high ranking members such as Musa Khiabani, Ashraf Rabiee and my uncle, and fled treacherously to Paris and led them to death in Iran. He wanted to get rid of his ideological members for ever and to be the only one to reach the power. Since he knew if they survived they would criticize all he would do. Masud Rajavi removed Islam since that year did not leave anything except a bizarre form of Islam.

And also my aunt who was very religious and had studied theology and Qoran Sciences for years, if she saw one example of internal problems of the organization, she would never believe in them and separate from them.

In such an organization where Muslim’s Holly Book, Qoran, is not found even for one version, every one who reads Qoran is labeled as “retarded”. During the years I was there, they made fun of mentioning God’s name.

I have a memory relating this issue: when some of my colleagues and I had gone to Hamrin to practice shooting, we got lost there.

To find the way, I asked God for help. When finally we found the way and returned to our base, they made fun of me because of that and mentioned it as “The under Minimum Fact”!!!? They always said:” in an emergency case, ask Masud and Maryam for help” they never mentioned God.

They didn’t respect Islam even for the minimum.

Therefore I am sure that if my uncle and aunt were alive, could not bear such an organization and would separate from them, as my uncle did.

Surprisingly Masud Rajavi reads a verse of Qoran at the beginning of his meetings to deceive the public and cries for Imam Hussein.

Did Imam Hussein defend Islam the same as what you do?

He said his prayers while he was fighting his enemies, does he equal you and Masud? You who give up praying just while the operation with any excuse.

Imam Hussein and his whole relatives stayed, fought and suffered martyrdom. How about you? In the first stages of threat Masud and Maryam fled to Europe and left all the members alone. They gave money to their high ranking commandants for the time the need to escape. But what did you do for the other individuals such as my sisters, husband and cousin? Did you tell them what to do when threatened? Do you want to scarify everyone for your own salvation?

I notify that I’m working in Nejat Society to prevent my friends and relatives from being victims and I will never let you kill them like my aunt and uncle.

Imam Hussein fought until the last moment. What about you? whilst the first threat, you delivered your weapons and resigned yourself to the American forces, , however, the world remembers your “Dawn with the US “, “ Dawn with Imperialism” slogans not long ago. You were proud of terrorizing Americans. But now you have focused all your efforts to get the confirmation of those same Americans and now you are proud of having good and warm relations with them! They have become your new Masters! (After Saddam Hussein)

Maryam Rajavi has titled herself as “the First Lady of the women of the world” – Holly Fatima’s title – .

How did she dare?! How could you let yourself to see yourself instead of holly Fatima the only Lady of the women of the world? Who labeled you as the best woman in the world?

While ideological divorces, Masud Rajavi interpreted “Azhab Surratt” about himself although it was descended for prophet Mohamad (peace be upon him)

None of our Imams ordered people to divorce ideologically!!! They didn’t teach their supporters to be separated from family and society. And you – Masud Rajavi – where did you find this version of Islam?

He told the members:”I’m the only cycle to join Imams, Imam Zaman and finally God!! You should only join your commandant and then via her join Maryam and then me, in order to have the happiness in this world and the other world!!!

What a wondering claim! how did he dare to claim such things? I should only say: ”Yowma tobleas saraer” ei our date will be on the resurrection day when the secrets will be denounced when you should answer your God. Houra Shalchi

The cult of Rajavi

Why ‘freedom of thought’ is a sin in the Mojahedin?

Did you know Why ‘freedom of thought’ is a sin in the Mojahedin? Why every single member of the Mojahedin is required to write a daily report about every thought which comes to their mind during the day?

With the introduction of the”Second Phase of the Ideological Revolution”in 1989, married couples and children were separated from one another in a bid to divert all personal love and affection towards the Ideological Leaders Massoud and Maryam Rajavi. The Revolution did not stop at that point however. Soon, unmarried people were also expected to ‘divorce’ in their hearts and minds everything to do with the opposite sex. They should not allow themselves to think about the opposite sex at any time during the day even, for that matter, during their sleep and dreams. A sex related dream or, remembering your child or, a passing memory of a girl or boy you knew perhaps as a teenager, were all declared to be signs that a person is”drowning in a world of sexuality”, and that therefore they”needed the Leaders’ help”.

The problem outside of Ashraf Camp was that members would meet and talk

over the phone with people of the opposite sex, see billboard advertisements, and even sometimes watch uncensored television. Inside Ashraf Camp the refectories were separated, men and women would not sit in the same car, and even the petrol station had separate timetables for men and women so that they would not meet. This resulted in a different level of thoughts about the opposite sex.

The Rajavis’ compulsory daily report was introduced thus:”once you write down all these ‘contradictions’ and read them aloud in the meeting at the end of the week, then the collective presence [peer pressure] will shame you sufficiently that you will reduce and will ultimately eliminate these bad thoughts or ‘contradictions’ to the point that your heart and mind will eventually belong solely to the leader.”

Once people were forced to write down their ‘contradictions’, the daily reports began to read along these lines:”I used the petrol pump after sister x, and I felt aroused”, or”I saw two birds together in a tree and I had an erotic thought”, or”when I sat on the chair that sister x has just left, I felt”. The more that time passed, the more ridiculous the reports became. And the more they wrote, the more they had things to write about. It became clear that most members over the years came to the conclusion that the daily report is something they have to do in order to get the leaders off their backs, and that what they actually think and do (when they get the chance) is not really what they should write about. After all, the reports should show”progress”. If not, you will be accused of resisting”Massoud and Maryam’s Ideological Revolution”. And of all other crimes only this is absolutely unforgivable.

Although no one has claimed, and is unlikely to claim, that any individual can ever achieve this totally pure state of mind (Massoud and Maryam Rajavi declared that from the start they did not have this problem, and that is why they are the ideological leaders and that is why they can remain married without corruption), the process intensified year after year to the point that the daily report has evolved into the ‘daily collective meeting’.

These meetings are held on a daily basis under any circumstances, even if there are only two or three people together for any task or mission. In the daily meeting, daily reports have to be read out in turn (except for the head of the meeting who must attend a separate meeting with peers in the hierarchy), and the others have to attack the writer, swear at him or her as hard as they can and in their own words”crack”the person by whatever means. If anyone comes down soft on the target, he or she will be accused of having something to hide inside, and of not taking the side of the Leaders in confronting the outside savage world. These meetings nowadays frequently result in physical fighting and abuse. Those who resist are labeled as agents of the intelligence ministry of Iran, who have no claim to any rights and can be treated according to the will of the Ideological Leaders. (In fact, such ‘traitors’ are ideologically condemned to execution by the Leaders. Actual execution of the order depends on the circumstances, and according to the whim of the Leaders. For instance, sending a ‘traitor’ to Abu Ghraib prison was equivalent to putting into practice the death sentence, since the victims were unlikely to survive there.)

As this psychologically cohesive method combined with other manipulations have been exercised over the years, the behaviour of people in the Mojahedin, including the way they see other nonmember people, the language they use and even in some cases the physical tone of the voice, face and body features and even the day-to-day desires of members have changed. For instance, it is not abnormal any more to see women who have more pronounced body and facial hair growth. The practice of self satisfaction [masturbation – which in Islamic teachings is forbidden] has become something so widespread for both men and women, that it has even been mentioned by Maryam and Massoud Rajavi in the general meeting as a problem which has arisen after banning sex.

The extent of the problem is such that in Ashraf Camp, new regulations for men’s dormitories emphasise among other things that:

– No two men are allowed to stay in the dormitory without the presence of a third man.

– In the case of two people being sick, a third man should be chosen to stay with them.

– People are not allowed to change their clothes in the dormitory except behind a screen.

– Rubbing medicine on the back or chest of a patient should preferably be carried out by an older member and supervised by a third man at all times.

– Taking a shower or bath should only take place at certain times of the day and only according to specific regulations.

And for the people outside Ashraf Camp (in Europe, etc):

– Men are not allowed to report to or talk in private to their women commanders except in the presence of another member, and vice versa.

– Members who need to go online. They should be a minimum of two people and one should ask frequent questions about the other’s need to visit sites or download emails.

– Members who have to go to meetings with politicians, etc. There should be at least one other person present at all time during travel outside the base until return.

There are many other rules and regulations similar to the above which govern the daily minutiae of life in the Mojahedin. It is interesting that now in some cases it is preferred to send a supporter to monitor a member while outside. This is because more and more frequently, two members would plan together to go to a cinema, sex shop, etc and agree not to tell the commanders. Distant supporters are told that because they have come from the Iraqi deserts, such members need their help until they get used to their new environment. It seems that not only have these regulations brought no real relief or for that matter”love of the Ideological Leaders”, instead they have overwhelmed the hearts and minds of members. During recent years, crimes like”rape and related murder and other crimes”against women in Ashraf camp, which had never been seen in the Mojahedin before the Ideological Revolution, have increased to shocking numbers.

The major problem for the Mojahedin are those who have regular contact with supporters as part of their work. Supporters report that after any long visit by a member to their homes or places of work it is usual for them to receive bills for long hours of connection to sex websites. Many supporters now refuse to allow their children into the presence of MKO members and prefer only to meet them in the streets or in the MKO safe houses in Europe. Women members are expected not to concern themselves with the minimum of hygiene and personal grooming. As a result, most of the women members who are no longer as young as before suffer from all sorts of mental and physical disorders, including the above mentioned coarsening of beards and moustaches which is mainly due to hormone imbalance or disorder. Woman are denied treatments or any kind of make up, bleaching or waxing, etc. – except for Maryam Rajavi and the women she chooses to have looking acceptable. While Massoud Rajavi has been dying his hair for the last fifteen years and all of his, and Maryam’s family, have had the most expensive cosmetic dental treatment possible, ordinary members are expected to have no more than a backpack to contain all their belongings; that is, all their clothes, books, mementos etc. These backpacks are regularly checked for forbidden items including any trace of contact with,or pictures of, family or friends. At its inception, the daily report accompanied by follow-up”ideological meetings”served the leaders’ purpose to keep a grip on the members on one hand and on the other hand provided blackmail material for a rainy day in case any member found the courage to try to escape the cult. It is now, however, increasingly working against the Rajavis as they attempt to whitewash their image as heads of an Islamic Marxist terrorist cult who have used their members to attack the interests of the west as and when needed to pursue their own agenda.

Mojahedin members (which includes around 97% of those claiming membership of the NCRI) are indoctrinated in the Rajavis’ anti-imperialist ideology. They are motivated by their promise to destroy world imperialism and replace it with what the Rajavis call”the divine, classless society”. It is with this motivation that they submit to the suffocating strictures imposed on them by the Rajavis. Following the fall of Saddam Hussein, such members cannot reasonably be expected to change their ideological direction without a total re-programming of their world view. The Rajavis know this only too well.

However, an explanation is needed for these members, who are very much needed for activities like the self immolations of June 2003 to protest the arrest of Maryam Rajavi, as they see current Mojahedin behaviour in contradiction to everything they have been taught to believe.

The explanation is that”fooling the Americans and their allies”is a tactic. The ideology has not changed, but the path to”the divine classless society”at this point of time, must pass through this tactic, until we are ready to confront”imperialism and the world devourers”again. Members are praised for their superior understanding, and the leader is worshiped as the members are taught to realise that they could not have passed this phase of the struggle to save humanity if it had not been because of the ideological leader and the introduction of the”ideological revolution”at the very right time.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

Killing generations of Kurds

Morvarid Operation

Morvarid (pearl) is the name of a chain of mountains in a frontier region in Kermanshah province of Iran and Kurdistan of Iraq, where suppressing operation and massacre of Kurds took place. "Morvarid Operation" is a given name by Rajavi’s cult.

An American journal wrote: "the only and main invasion of NLA during the last six years happened in 1991 right in the aftermath of Gulf War while Saddam Hussein ordered Rajavi to help him with suppressing Kurds’ uprising in the north of Iraq."

To cover their crimes against Kurds, Mujahedin claimed that they repelled the attack of Iranian forces to their bases and called the alleged anti – attack,"Pearl Operation".

The MKO’s leader, chief and members of the council, commandant and the army general staff disappointed of a new war between Iraq and Iran, who observed the return of Iraqi government from Kuwait in the fall of 1990, after a chain of staff meetings, held a public meeting to determine their strategy in which they investigated rotation of the affairs in the region. Since the cult can’t consider any reality except the atmosphere ruling its own situation, it was obvious that they choose the war and then they loose it.

To compensate this loss, Rajavi used his entire mercenary forces to keep and maintain their main sponsor – Saddam Regime – and they set out to rescue the dictator from falling in that period of time. Thus they started their dreadful crimes of which you will see the description as follows:

The procedure of conveying the strategy

Masud and Maryam attended the meeting of Iraq Revolution and Leadership Council in person and were informed of all the details of that important situation. According to Rajavi’s justifications, the Baath regime knew the US would invade them, so they would be obliged to take all their forces to Kuwait boundary , there was an internal danger from the opponents: Kurds in the north and Shiites in the South.

The only force to oppose these oppositions was MKO since it saw its presence in the absence of the others and Saddam charged it with this duty (the Suppression of Kurds)

Conveyance and settlement

In the fall of 1990, Masud and Maryam, brought about division and distribution of the forces as the followings:

1. In the first part they organized and settled about 40 armour plated divisions and mechanized infantry in a region called "Kefri". The district of Kefri, reaches Solaimanieh Province from north and Kirkuk Province from North West and Hamrin Mountains up to qaneqein and Agh Dagh Mountains up to Qasr Shirin, Iran, from East. As a matter of fact, this way of the settlement of the forces had made a separating line between Kurdish areas and central Iraq.

2. The second part included three infantry battalions of the most devoted members of MKO in Saddam’s guards’ disguises who were dispatched to Karbala and Najaf provinces. They were under the order of Saddam’s guards to suppress the Shiites.

3. The third part of the forces included 200 to 300 patrolling teams armed with automatic machine – guns that were under the order of a woman named Sara. She was the commandant of the seventh axis in Nader Afshar base, in 1991. The so – called forces were charged to control and suppress the Shiites around Bagdad. According to one of the commandant, named "Hamid Hadi Beigi, they machine-gunned any gathering day and night.

4. Rajavi used the "ideology" trick to stimulate his forces. In order to justify his deceit he held a meeting with "cross" code where he stated the theory of "killing people". He said:" if a person is negligent to do so, and our system can not keep the Land Lord (Saddam), necessarily the opponents are winners and if so, they will crucify all of us and I am the first one. Now if anyone wants me to be crucified, can hesitate". He penetrated the organizational manufactured feeling of members and put them against the Iraqi people, although they were not willing to do so, at heart.

Allocation of forces

Rajavi owned almost a thousand foreign forces (workers) from Arabic countries especially Sudan. They organized all of them to bring supplies and munitions, and act as the supporting forces. The Iraqi army gave a group of bombardiers to each unit of Rajavi’s cult. And even the army issued a circular for Rajavi according to which they authorized Rajavi to command the entire dispersed forces of Baath army and to try them in case of disobeyance.

Therefore, MKO – Saddam’s Private Army- which claimed the liberating fight to free its own people, opposed the meek people of Iraq. And prevented their victory and caused the frustration of their entire struggle.

The Spark of War:

With the first shooting from the US forces, in that morning, I remember the Mujahedin who started to fight from the first moments. All Rajavi forces were already designed and settled through a line from Khosravi frontier to Syria frontier which was the separating axis between Kurds and the center of Iraq, but in the South and Center of Iraq Rajavi’s forces were under the order of Saddam’s guards and brought about the suppression of the opponents directly. In this stage, several divisions were sent to Qader Karam in the South of Suleimanieh in order to reach Kirkuk and prevent the fall of the city. In the last justifications of Rajavi about the so-called units, Izad Ibrahi praised the intrepidity (cruelty) of Mujahedin in a meeting in April, 1991.

The first confrontation with Iraqi people took place in Kirkuk tee, under the direct order of Maryam. The direct commandant of the fight was the commandant of 26th division of Rajavi’s forces – Ali Naqi Hadadi (Kamal) who was taken on a one way ride because he hesitate to kill the people hard-heartedly. Thus he was discharged in the same location and a woman named Behjat was appointed instead of him.

In this location many of Kurdish Pishmargs and civilians were killed and prevented from advancing toward Tooz, Khormatou and Kirkuk.

The second team was going to Sulaiman Beg and AlAzim then Kefri and Kellar in the North West of Khaneqein in the same direction; they were responsible to occupy the cities and the surrounding areas. The third team contained several divisions which were advancing toward Jlula and Khaneqein in the South West of Qasr Shirin Iran.

Pre War Steps:

To prevent the minds of the members, the cult used the following tricks:

1. To hidden more than a thousand of Iranian POWs while the Red Cross was exchanging the POWs. (The cult of Rajavi, first kept the mentioned people in a base called Sardar, near Kirkut and then took them to Hanif Camp in Nozhvel and used them as slaves to dig rifle-pits and operate other preparation processes, a month before the settlement of the forces.)

2. Through a message, Rajavi told the NLA that this time "Forough 2" is through Kurdistan direction and stated the reasons including cooperation of the whole forces in Kurdistan of Iran. They pretended that some Kurdish province of Iran have stated their solidarity with MKO. Therefore they justified the legitimacy of their campaign toward Kurdistan, Iraq.

3. Rajavi explained leaving of their battalions to Karbala and Najaf as only taking care of the MKO’s cemetery in Karbala.

4. They sent a dozen of professional teams to Kuwait to transit the booties of war. While trafficking one of the officials of MKO named Shaban Esrafilian was wounded.

As I said the war was started in Qader Karam Tee in the North of Tooz while the north of Iraq was completely fallen and the people of Iraq had set out to control the roads and make military departments. The cult captured and disarmed all of them and shot many of them. MKO could control the region and seized the both ways to Baqdad and prevented the Kurds from advancing toward Bagdad. In this situation several groups of Kurds called on the MKO’s commandant to negotiate with them but they were crushed under the tanks and the city of Tooz Khor Matou, the place of negotiation was bombarded. The description of such crimes is shown in the propaganda and films of Morvarid in the proper organization. Rajavi bombarded the meek Kurds hypocritically and said:" we want to enter our country through Kurdistan and you are the obstacle against our victory." In that cold weather, the citizens of Tooz sought refuge in the mountains behind the city, Rajavi and Saddam didn’t have pity on them and used Napalm bombs to kill them. Through this tragedy many children were killed and Rajavi kept his mandate in Iraq.

Besides killing and massacre, Rajavi used other tricks to deceive the members:

1. He sent some of his forces, under the order of Qasam Bour Bour, to Iran, in order to take some boys as hostages. They threatened them to death unless they confess that they are captured near Ashraf Camp and they are the agents of Iranian Regime.

2. They shot some of their own watchmen, since they were about to being captured by the opponents, including Shahriar Shojaati, from Shiraz.

Later they recalled him as a person who committed suicide. In fact he was shot under the order of Efat Javadi who herself acted under the direct order of Maryam who was patrolling above the area in her helicopter and was ordering to kill people.

3. they lay some of their own members as baits in wait for Kurdish opponents to stimulate other members and give them motives to kill more and more ( Zhila Tolou executed this plan)
