Maryam Rajavi’s ten-point plan, why is it unreliable?

Reviewing the record and performance of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO)/ MEK/ Cult of Rajavi/ PMOI) through history, we will find that their alleged intellectual slogans only have an pleasant cover and in fact it’s “a wolf in sheep’s skin”.
Every year, the congratulation message of Maryam Rajavi, head of the Cult of Rajavi to Christians on the occasion of Christian New Year, marks a question in the mind of informed audience that the appearance of this good-looking message does not fit the cult-like violent nature of the group that have no tolerance regarding different religions, believes and political views.

Indeed, recognition of the MEK’s practices towards religious minorities, especially Christians, inside their cult-like system can remove the intellectual mask of the group so that everyone can understand its undemocratic nature.
Maryam Rajavi’s 10-point plan for the future of Iran is an absolute parody to what she has practically done in her long-life presidentship in exile. But what are particularly considered as very contradictory in the plan are paragraphs 2 and 4 which explicitly refer to respect for individual freedoms and the prohibition of discrimination against religious followers:

“Section 2. In the future of Iran we respect all individual freedoms. And we emphasize the freedom of speech and the complete freedom of the media and the unobtrusive access to cyberspace.”
“Section 4: Resistance of Iran will defend the separation of religion and state, any discrimination against the followers of all religions will be prohibited”
But history says something else:

Massoud Rajavi at the beginning of the “pool sessions” (a title for a series of brainwashing and self-criticism sessions held regularly in the MEK), in 1995, said:
“I want to dissolve the Liberation Army because we cannot overthrow [the Islamic Republic], someone can overthrow the regime that has the support of superpowers, fleet of war and airplanes. I do not have and I cannot have. Because I cannot warm my back to a superpower, we are a revolutionary and liberating force. So, from this moment on, the Liberation Army will be dissolved, you will have to sleep in the street tomorrow.”

Typically, a number of the loyal members of the MKO, begged Rajavi that “brother, do not dismiss the army, whatever you say we do“, and after that, Massoud Rajavi said:
“If you want to be the founding member of the second Liberation Army, you must accept the law book that I am advising you.”

The so-called Book of Law had 76 paragraphs. By the year 2001, the paragraphs were increased. In fact, this book complemented the cult-like drift of the MEK. But among the sectarian rules, there are a few important issues that are relevant to the topic of the article:

“In the relations of the MEK, we cannot have non-Muslims and especially non-Shiite members. Pray and fasting is obligatory. In the relations of the MEK, we cannot have a woman without cover (hijab).”
All Christians and Sunnis are forced to be Shiite, including those who were born Christian. Philip was a Christian who joined the Liberation Army and worked there for many years as a repairman of tanks. Despite his long-time membership in the group, he was not considered an official member of the organization because of he was not Muslim. For him, the increase of level in the organizational hierarchy was conditioned on the abandonment of Christianity.

Edward Termado

After he was coerced by Rajavi’s cult of personality, he converted to Islam and became an official member. While before his arrival, his requests for membership in the organization were rejected promptly because of his Christianity.
Edward Termado was another Christian member of the MEK who had been recruited or was actually deceived by the recruiters. He was forced to say prayers and fast in Ramadan. He left the MEK after 12 years of suffering.
All of the evidences suggest that the MEK leaders’ approach towards religious minorities indicate how unreliable and dishonest is the congratulation message of Maryam Rajavi to Christians on the New Year holiday. Moreover it demonstrates the unreliability of her ten-point plan for future Iran.

The cult of Rajavi

Alireza was asking for help in fear of MEK torturers

Alireza Esfandiari was welcome by the authorities of the Mujahedin Khalq (MEK/ MKO/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) when he joined the group after the death of his sister. His sister, Fereshteh had suspiciously died in Iraq
Fereshteh was the presenter of the MEK’s TV channel. In 1995, Her death was announced as being assassinated in a terror attack in Iraq! Alireza joined the group two years later but shortly after his arrival in Camp Ashraf, he got to know that he was on the wrong path. Consequently, he began to express his dissent.

Alireza Esfandiari’s disagreement with the MEK’s cult-like regulations turned him into the topic of long-term meetings. The group commanders held uninterrupted 8-hour-long sessions for several successive days to coerce him to stay in the group. During the meetings he was under severe mental and physical pressure by the side of commanders, in particular Zhila Deihim and also his peers. However, Alireza was courageous enough to insist on his demand to leave the group.

MEK ‘s announcement on the death of Fereshteh Esfandiyari

Farid, former member of the MEK who witnessed Alireza’s brainwashing courts, recalls that Zhila Deihim called Alireza “a coward who pees in his pants because he is scared” and “he wants to embrace the regime” (the Iranian government)!
Farid and Mobayen testify that Alireza was severely beaten in the so-called court of Zhila Deihim. “We did not see Alireza after the court for a few days,” Mobayen writes. “One day we were eating lunch in the eating place when Alireza rushed in. His clothes were torn and dirty. He was crying asking for help. He was horribly scared. Reza Jebeli wanted to help him but Mahmoud Fakhr, Mohamad Karimi and Jamileh Feizi and a few of other commanders hit and beat him and took him out.”

Alireza was no more seen in the MEK. Alireza Esfandiari was disappeared in the MEK in the Summer of 2001, according to Ardeshir Parhizkari, former member of the MEK who, in 2003, signed an appeal to Amnesty International and the UN High Commissioner of Human rights, calling for the trial of Massoud and Maryam Rajavi.

The cult of Rajavi

Sexual Control in MEK, Separated streets for men and women

Modern Slavery in the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) includes various destructive practices which has lasted the four-decade history of Massoud and Maryam Rajavi’s ruling over the group. Discrimination, sexist ideas, emotional isolation, peer pressure and sexual control are certain measures of cultic characteristics of the MEK, that were listed by the RAND report on the MEK in 2009.

Defectors and some insiders of the MEK’s Camp Ashraf three in Albania assert that leaders of the group have issued a travel restrictions directive in a new move to impose more sexual control over male and female members. The action is aimed to prevent confrontation of men and women in the streets of Tirana in Albania.

According to the directive, some streets have been allocated to men and some routes have been defined for women’s travel to the city. According to the instructions, each member who has to enter the of Tirana, should travel according to this directive. In case of violating the so-called law, he or she will be subject to punishments. Thus, in a street allocated to women, any work or mission through that street will be given to women, and if a male member of the group is seen in that area, the female members should immediately report the matter to their superiors.

View of some members of the Iranian opposition resistance Mujahedeen-e- Khalq group, who have resettled in Albania from Iraq, in a street, in Tirana, Albania, Friday, May 17, 2013.

As the RAND institute documented, MEK’s sexual control over members is nothing new, Camp Ashraf was a notoriously Known container for Massoud Rajavi’s cult of Personality:
“Despite the MeK’s and NCRI’s claim to support gender equality and the placement of women in leadership roles, men and women are kept strictly apart in MeK camps. Housing is segregated by gender, and in other buildings, lines are painted down the middle of hallways, separating them into men’s and women’s sides. Men and women below the leadership level are prohibited from contact with one another unless they have obtained official case-by-case permission. Shaking hands is prohibited across genders. Even the gas station at Camp Ashraf has separate hours for men and women.”

The cult of Rajavi

I was a cult member

I was a cult member living in the closed camp of Mujahedin-e Khalq cult called camp Ashraf.
Several times I decided to leave the group. Yet I got stuck every time I decided to escape the cult camp.
Thanks God, I managed to escape and enter the free world after the collapse of Saddam Hussein.
Now I live my own way of life. I decide for my own destiny. I have family, friends .. .

I want to send my message to my ex-friends who are still captive behind the bars of the MEK cult as well as other cults’ members: free yourself. Freedom is sweet. the cult leaders deceive you and abuse you on the way of their own interests.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

The history of assassinations in the Cult of Rajavi

The half a century history of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) testifies that terror and violence are an integral part of the essence of the group. Terror is the most important tool that has always been used by the MEK, not only for the Iranian people, but also for the purpose of silencing and removing members of the organization.

Over the years, the international community continues to see the continuation of the physical removal of members of the MEK with new methods in Europe and in Albania under direct command of the group leaders.
By studying and analyzing Cults, a common cause is deduced that all destructive cults in their internal relations are subject to brainwashing and mental control. However, despite all the control measures, they are struggling with their critical members because of their inability to provide reasonable argument.

The MEK, as a notorious destructive cult, is no exception. In fact, the beginning of this cult has begun with the assassinations and has continued until now. For Taqi Shahram, who was one of the first leaders of the group, the physical removal was the best solution to the disengagement of the domestic opposition, which later his legacy was inherited by Massoud Rajavi. He institutionalized physical elimination of dissident members in the MEK.
The leaders of the MEK have always used this method to silence the voices of dissent inside their establishment to avoid the secondary consequences of protest and criticism which is defection and eventually revelations on the suppressive atmosphere of the group.

Taghi Shahram and Massoud Rajavi

The method has intensified in the secretive organization of the MEK since its relocation in Camp Ashraf, Iraq, where the MEK were able to exercise any pressure on their forces. Many members of the organization were assassinated during the years in Iraq, due to their opposition to the leaders’ views, requests for departure, rejection of orders, or simply complaint against a cult-like regulation.

In all these cases, the leaders of the MEK fabricated fake scenarios such as killing in the battle fields and suicide, and it was never possible for the victims’ relatives to pursue the crimes. Even in some cases, no information was given on the victimized person, and no one was even allowed to seek information.
It may seem like a joke that after the assassination of these members, the group commanders looked for criminals. Many of the individuals listed as the ancestors of the MEK, have been assassinated by the group leaders in the internal purges of the organization, but they are now boasted as martyrs of the MEK who have been killed by Iranian or Iraqi forces. Ali Zarkesh is an example of such eliminations.

Also after the occupation of Iraq by the United States, the leaders of the Cult of Rajavi repeatedly declared a number of their victims as the casualties of US missile attacks and bombs. There is a long list of people killed or injured, while many of them, especially the injured ones, were the result of tortures and cult-like suppressions. Parviz Ahmadi is a case who was killed under torture by MEK commanders but was declared as a victim of American invasion.

The assassination of members, the sudden disappearance of members in MEK camps, the prevention of visiting, and even the contact of parents with children in the camps and even the denial of the existence of such persons in the camps are some examples of the cult-like terrorist activities of the MEK in its half-a-century history.
However, during the deployment of the group at Camp Liberty in Iraq and after members were enrolled by the United Nations Commissioner for Human Rights, the group leaders were not so free hands to commit any crime. However, dissent and demands to leave were still factors to risk the life of members.

In fact, the heavy consequences of defection from the Cult of Rajavi made leaders keep on suppression and intimidation against their members. The consequences include testimonies of defectors on human rights violations committed by the MEK leaders, whether in the media or international courts and human rights bodies.
Now in Albania, the same procedure is the only solution to the MEK leaders against dissidents. However, they were not successful to stop the rise in defections from the group. This time, however, the organization’s scenarios for removal of members have varied slightly due to the high age of people present in the group, excuses such as illness are raised. Suspicious deaths at the headquarters of the MEK in Albania reveals new scenarios for the removal of dissatisfied members.

First of all, the suspicious deaths include those who seek to leave the group. When mental and even physical pressures are not successful, they start designing to remove the person. Because a protester, a critic and a separatist is able to spread the voice of objection and doubts over the organization to other forces and spread dissatisfaction.

One of the methods of physical removal of members, which is now very common in Albania, is death due to illness. In some cases, members of the group are taken to Albanian hospitals, due to illnesses but they die for reasons other than the illness. Some cases include poisoning, which according to the defectors, is a usual method used by the MEK to eliminate dissidents. Behzad Massoudi suffered a disease for many years, eventually died in Albania suspiciously, and the cause of his death was announced by the hospital as poisoning.

A paid advert by MEK (Maryam Rajavi cult) in Albanian media

The incident is another method used in Albania to remove the dissatisfied members physically. In Albania, unlike the Camp Ashraf, where excuses such as gunfire or an explosion of a grenade as a cause of death were regularly announced as the cause of deaths, causes such as drowning in the pool are reported as causes of death. Malek Sharaee in Albania, whose death was announced as drowning in the pool is an example. While this person was a Lifeguard, his death at the pool was an unpredictable scenario for those who were not even familiar with him.
Apart from the methods of murder in Albania, the investigation of specific actions in the headquarters of the MEK in the country is sometimes followed by suspicious deaths and physical expulsions. Since the early 2016, exactly during the time Maryam Rajavi was stationed in Albania, mortality rates increased in the MEK, and just in one stage death of three people, Fakhri Isfahanian, Akbar Chavoshi, and Ali Khalkhal were announced.

In the same manner, the group appears to be in a critical condition, abolishing protesters to intimidate others. All in all, those present at the headquarters of the MEK in Albania are at high risk as long as they are under the control of the leaders of the destructive cult of Rajavi. This is now happening in a European country, which, unlike the deserts of Iraq, allows us to pursue the cases.

Human rights organizations such as “Human Rights Watch“, who sent a representative in a customary way to document the allegations made by the MEK to Albania, should also be cautious to these incidents and respond in accordance with essential duty.

Albania

Documentation Frees MEK Members

When the MEK cult was transferred to Albania in 2016, the members were brought by the UNHCR without documentation. They were given $100 US and a piece of paper stating they were being moved ‘on humanitarian grounds’. On arrival in Tirana, the MEK leaders swapped the 100 US dollars for 100 Albanian Lek (worth approximately one dollar). The arrivals were not given ID papers but were left as undocumented foreigners. A new law, however, named ‘For Foreigners’ will soon rectify this situation.

The new legislation was approved by Albania’s Council of Ministers in December last year. It has now been reviewed by Albania’s Commission on European Integration, which announced that it meets EU requirements. According to Albanian officials, the legislation, which has been in the pipeline for a while, seeks to address shortcomings in the bureaucratic system so as to streamline documentation for various foreign individuals. Examples given are

“residence permits of persons without citizenship; residence permits for pensioners; residence permits for travelling employees, i.e. those foreign nationals working in different countries, not in an office or in an institution headquarters and whose work mostly involves travelling; and permits for those who use real estate owned by them in the Republic of Albania”.

The first Iranians to benefit from the new law are those who have rejected membership of the MEK but who, without proper documentation, have struggled to establish themselves in society. Journalist Gjergji Thanasi, who has followed the plight of these former MEK members for the past four years, explained the changes:

“previously there was a problem with getting various permits from different departments – residence, work, travel, etc. Now, foreigners will be issued with a single permit, a White Card, which gives them all the rights of Albanian citizenship, except the right to vote. After a while, they will be issued a Green Card which will entitle them to full citizenship rights.”

Hasan Heyrani, MKO former member in Tirana

For the former MEK members, this has been a welcome development. Hassan Heyrani said:

“I have been managing a coffee shop to make a living. But I can now incorporate my own business and buy property. This will make a huge difference in all our lives. The White Card will even allow us to arrange family reunions”.

The former members have applied for the single permit and have received registration numbers pending the issue of the White Cards in a month or two.

The new law also applies to the MEK members in Camp Ashraf 3 in Durres county. MEK leader Maryam Rajavi has already been reported to be working to hide this law from the members, and to take steps to mitigate its effects. Members are being asked to sign papers waiving any rights to independent life. They must swear an oath to identify as a member of the MEK cult rather than an individual with individual rights. The problem for Rajavi is that although she has already denied the members every one of the rights and freedoms contained in the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, one of the principles set out by Article 30 in this document is that nobody can give away or waive their own rights and freedoms.

Heyrani anticipates this could be the end of the MEK as a cult.

“Once the members become aware that they can leave the organisation and enjoy the rights and benefits of Albanian citizenship, Rajavi’s hold over them will be broken”, he said. This author reminds readers that when the MEK were in Iraq, the members were also undocumented: “Members used organisational names rather than their own, to ‘lose their individuality’. Those who needed to travel used fake passports, or passports belonging to other members and supporters. The members were told that this was for security purposes since the Iranian government were spying on them. The real reason was to prevent members having valid documentation. Members were reminded that if they tried to leave the organisation, the punishment under Saddam Hussein for anyone without identity papers or a passport was an automatic 8 prison sentence as an illegal immigrant. That meant, most members would not dare leave. Several who leave did were imprisoned in Abu Ghraib prison under this law.”

In Albania, Maryam Rajavi has benefitted from the notorious corruption in the country, from government down. She has benefitted from the tacit support of the CIA. This has allowed her to hold the members as undocumented slaves, totally dependent on the organisation for all their basic needs. People who managed to leave the cult have often struggled for some time to survive without the necessary documents that would allow them to work. In a matter of weeks, this situation will end. All the Iranians who came to Albania in 2016 will be able to register for the new documentation which will facilitate their break with the Rajavi cult and enable them to live freely and healthily in society.

Massoud Rajavi

The son of Rajavi

Mostafa (Mohammad) Rajavi, the minor child of Massoud, and Ashraf Rabiei, the first wife of Massoud, were taken to Evin prison in the clash of Musa Kiabani’s team house in Zaferaniyeh, Tehran, on February 19, 1981.
After a while, he was delivered to his grandfather in Mashhad, and after a while with much effort and energy, he left Iran and was taken to Paris.

Mostafa, who is about thirty years old now, went to school in France from childhood with his bodyguard. Then he was taken to Iraq. Unlike the daughter of Maryam Rajavi and Mehdi Abarishamchi (Ashraf), he was living in a villa provided by Saddam Hussein, in the military camp Ashraf. But he was not satisfied with his life there, and many times he tried to escape, which did not succeed and was prevented.
Mustafa and other teens living in the cult were dissatisfied with the conditions and cults affairs. However, the cult’s response towards their dissents was quite different. As Mustafa was considered as the leader’s son and others as simple members.

Mostafa was once the manager of sports on the Mojahedin TV and wearing the best branded clothes and shoes, He had a special interest in girls and women, which, of course, was a natural sense of human, but the point was that he was never found guilty or, like other teens, did not have to admit his sexual thoughts and tolerate others’ attacks at Ghusl sessions.

Because in the MKO organization, Rajavi is a saint . After the fall of Saddam, and with direct support and direct involvement of the White House, Mojahedin forces were transferred to Albania. But Mustafa Rajavi went to Norway, where, under the name of Arman Rabiei, he became asylum seeker to hide from journalists and public opinion.

After speaking against the organization for some times and his disagreement with the thoughts of his father and the MKO organization, in order to satisfy him, the organization enrolled him at a private university (BI UNIVERSITY) with tuition of $ 45,000 in the law Field of Study in Norway.
They also pay $ 5,000 a month to him, apart from the money he receives from the Norwegian government for asylum.

The reason for the registration of Mustafa Rajavi in law Field of Study is that the Mojahedin intends to replace him with his uncle Kazem Rajavi and he would work for the MKO in the United Nations and international organizations.

But the general situation of Mustafa Rajavi’s allies was that, before the occupation of Kuwait in 1991, Massoud Rajavi decided to send children and teens to Europe, the United States and Canada. Dozens of teenagers were sent to these countries with counterfeit passports.
The pleasure of Rajavi “because of the idea of attacking Iran from the Kuwait maritime border” did not last long. Because, US coalition forces pushed Saddam out of Kuwait and brought a heavy defeat to the Iraq Presidential Guards. With the deterioration of Saddam’s situation in Iraq, Rajavi decided to return teenagers to Ashraf, because the youth did not join the organization much and the organization did not have any backing.
Except for a number of cases where MKO supporters did not turn these children back, dozens of teenagers were again returned with fake passports under the watch of Canadian FBI security officers from Canada to the United States and from the United States to Iraq.

In some cases, it was allegedly lied to a girl that your mother had cancer. When she went to Iraq, she saw her mother healthy and MKO kept her European passport. The girl had to stay in Iraq for several years because the organization did not allow her to leave.
These girls were held in separate sections and series of reports on the sexual relationship between the MKO leaders and commanders with these teenagers and young people, as a revolutionary marriage, was published or privately retailed. The living conditions of these girls were better than boys.

However, neither of these teenagers, both boys and girls, couldn’t continue their education. The organization kept them busy with daily activities and with the slogan of “This year, is the year of overthrown”, which was repeated from the year 1980’s, they dissuade them from separating the organization.
In a phrase, from the team of young people and children born and raised in Iraq, everyone is over the age of 25 now and almost none of them have university education. Many of them even do not know how to read and write at high school level.

The story of Mostafa Rajavi, is the political and ideological dichotomy of the leadership of the MKO, Massoud and Maryam Rajavi, and the classless monotheism society.
Massoud Rajavi and the leaders of the MKO repeated the slogan of classless monotheism society, justice and equality, and the right to education for all in the post-revolutionary era.
Mustafa Rajavi’s higher education is his right; Our critique is about deceiving the loyal forces and the oppression and abuses that in the name of the fight happened to the young generation In MKO military bases in Iraq and no one from the Rajavi cult responds to it.

Despite all these discriminations and better life condition of the Rajavi’s Son, still living under the cult practices is not easy. several times Mostafa tried to escape the MEK Camps in Iraq. After the group’s relocation to Albania, Mostafa separated the group and went to Norway.

However, the MEK do not leave him free to live his own way of life. In an action, for example, asked him to sign a letter against a separated person that in this letter, the separated member is introduced as an agent of the Ministry of Intelligence of Iran and he is accused of espionage, this is while Mostafa Rajavi has been separated from this group for some time and has strongly opposed and criticized the performance of this group. For this reason, he has sued the MEK and has filed a lawsuit in this regard.

Mostafa Rajavi describes this incident as follows:

I want to reveal about a dirty and illegal ransom to put pressure on me. Some time ago, the foreign employer of the company I work for, following a series of previous attempts to pressure me, sent me a letter asking me to copy and sign it. The text of this article was prepared by two well-known Mojahedin officials. One is Mohammad Mohaddesin, known as Behnam in the Mojahedin, and the other is Mohammad Sadat Khansari, known as Adib. In this regard, the letter that Adib sent to the employer and specified the lines of work for him, is available as a document.

In this letter, I was asked to write against Mr. Iraj Mesdaghi and introduce him as a mercenary. An act that was unacceptable to me. I will not call anyone a mercenary of the Ministry of Intelligence without a sufficient and court-friendly document. This has always been my position because I consider it immoral and it is against my principles.

Considering that this action was unacceptable and illegal in my opinion, I did not accept to do this signature and instead informed the syndicate about the matter. The syndicate officials, who had never encountered such cases in European countries, were very shocked by this action and it was unbelievable for them! For this reason, the syndicate’s lawyer sent a letter to Adib asking him to explain in order to better understand the matter. Until now, no response has been given to the lawyer’s letter. A case has been filed in court in connection with these illegal actions of the employer, which are carried out by taking direct orders from these two people.

Today, I want to address Mr. Mohaddesin and Mr. Khansari publicly: Mr. Khansari, Mr. Mohaddesin, who’s this dirty and illegal ransom? Why are you pressuring me through the employer to sign your statement? Don’t you, who have lived in Europe for nearly 30 years, know that this is immoral and illegal? Where in Europe and Scandinavia does an employer allow himself to get such a signature from his employee? Why didn’t you go directly to me and instead made the employer as a tool to put pressure on me? Please respond in front of public opinion if you dare!

Let me correct a point here. I have no connection with Mr. Iraj Mesdaghi and I do not know him at all. His positions towards the Mujahedin Organization are not my positions at all and I do not approve of them at all. Many of the things he says may be wrong, and baseless, but there is no reason to consider him a mercenary of the Ministry of Intelligence of the Islamic Republic. Doing so is against my principles.

I also have a word with the supporters of the Mujahedin. I have absolutely no intention of hitting and creating problems for the Mujahedin. I have nothing to do with politics, nor with the organization, nor with the opinion of the organization, and I also pray for each and every member of the Mujahedin. I am looking for a normal life away from controversy and useless noise. If you have been told something else, it is wrong and you can be sure that it is not true. But at the same time I have principles that I cannot deviate from. How the Mujahedin treats its critics is up to it, but it has no right to force me to follow them in this regard. Such an expectation is unreasonable, immoral and illegal. To this day, I have tried to resolve issues with reason and logic so that it does not lead to futile conflicts and does not take energy from me. Unfortunately, no result was reached and the court was forced to intervene to solve this problem. The syndicate’s lawyer has now filed a complaint with the court, and the date and time of the court hearing have been determined. I will keep you informed of further developments.

Important Note: Due to personal issues that can be understood by all dear compatriots, I refuse to mention the name of the company and the place of work.

Now a question rises that how a group whose members are fleeing from this group due to high internal pressure can claim democracy? Upon further examination of the group’s performance, it can be concluded that instead of the word democracy, it is better to attribute the word dictatorship to this group, a word that is perhaps the least adjective that can be used to describe the inner space of this cult. An atmosphere that has become difficult for most members of the group to bear.

The cult of Rajavi

Where’s the world’s largest nursing home?

An Albanian citizen who, on the condition of anonymity, wrote a brief description of his several-hours visit from the camp of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ the Cult of Rajavi) in Tirana, Albania:
I quickly wore my suit and my shoes and walked; we had to visit the camp of an opposition group of the Iranian government. Some people inside this city came to accompany us. They spoke English fairly well, but sometimes because of their age, they forgot some words and phrases.

However, we went with them and after leaving the city we reached a pretty farmland on the edge of Tirana. The cars stopped at the entrance door of a new camp, and an obese woman, who was wearing magnifying glasses and her face was full of wrinkles, came to us. The cars crossed a few niches and a new building and stopped at a meeting hall. Our group was welcomed by some of the Iranian group officials and we were led into the hall. I got into the hall behind them.

When I looked at the audience, I was a little surprised. The current population was men and women dressed in tidy clothes, but the average age was 60-70years.I could clearly see facial wrinkles, hairless heads, fallen shoulders, humpy waists, hearing aids in the ears and glasses on their eyes. Particularly when they laughed, spilled teeth of some of them drew my attention. In order to escape this old man’s space, I spoke slowly in the ears of the group’s head: “As you talk, I’m going to look around”. I went outside the hall to visit the complex.

One of the Iranians who was younger than the rest of them, came to accompany me. The construction was still underway, but as I turned my eyes, I saw no child, nor a teenager nor a girl nor a boy. I asked my companion who really was watching me, “Where are the little ones and the beautiful girls”? He told me: “we do not have children and we are all single here”. We decided to separate women from men and not to reproduce to fight better! I looked at him with amazement and I went to a hall where they were dormant and I looked at it from the window. Large photos of Massoud and Maryam Rajavi were installed in the wall. Wheelchairs, walkers, canes, pills and medications, diapers and … were things that at first glance drew attention. Some were sleeping on the beds, and some were sitting on their wheelchairs; several people were watching the television set on the wall. The man gently took my hand to the other side of the field. A little car crossed us, while a white-haired man was crying in the back seat. I asked him about the cause, He laughed and showed his head with his hand, and said, “It is a forgetful one …he had Alzheimer. He usually loses many times throughout the day. In Iraq he was a tank driver, but now …”

It was really getting interesting.

A little bit farther, several middle-aged women wearing head scarves were sitting on a bench under the sun light. Several of elderly people were walking and exercising near them. We walked toward them. My companion said something in Farsi to them and they all laughed. Their facial wrinkles were very noticeable. I asked one of these old women: where are your families? He answered with a loud voice: “My husband and I, 40 years ago, sent my only son to my father’s house in Tehran, saying that we were going to Iraq and returning soon. But the fight was long. My parents died, my husband died in Iraq and we buried him in the pearl cemetery. One of my relatives in Baghdad, died in Liberty, and I was recently discharged from the American Hospital in Tirana. I’ve been hospitalized for 3 months, and several parts of my body have been under surgery, I’ll probably die here as well. With saying that, tears flowed from her eyes.

Another lady sitting there stared at an unidentified point, and during my coming and going, there was no change in her condition. I asked again: Are you in contact with your family? Do you have a telephone connection? Will they come to visit you? She shook her head and said with the same loud voice that “we have nothing to do with anyone and anywhere at all”. The third woman with a rough voice said: “But I do not like it here, it’s like sadness of the world is all here, I was very much alive, but this last stroke…” And with her hand, she also pointed to her swollen leg and continued: “My brother’s son was with us in Iraq, but when we arrived, he fled with his friend and went to the UN refugee camp in Tirana.”

I got off of them and with using my phone’s internet I searched for the American Hospital inTirana, which she had told me. I found interesting things and it turned out that a large number of their patients are members of the same group who carry a lot of physical and psychological problems.

During the time that was left, I visited the area and several buildings. There was no sign of laugh and hope in the faces. All the people were mournful, depressed like they are waiting for their death. After about an hour I returned to the group. The tour was almost over. The people around the visitors were slightly different from the members I saw; they were a bit younger than people I’ve seen.

Of course, this was sort of a show that the organization had arranged for us. Then they took us to the hall, where almost 100 people attended. Some of the exciting musicals that they called revolutionaries were played, so that everyone in the hall was even excited. Even a few elderly people were very emotional. This condition reminded me of the survivors and veterans of World War II camp.

On the way back, I said my own impression of what I had seen at Camp Tirana and the plight of 2,500 people living with them, and I also said that in my opinion there is only one description for that place and that is a “nursing home”, perhaps the largest nursing home in the world. I would certainly be sending a Guinness Representative here for the global registration if I can. One of my companions listened to me and asked: “Is making the hearts of these old men and women happy a bad thing??You think that the money spent on them, is for them to fight? no, it’s just to keep them alive. Behold! Here is a faraway exile.”

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

MEK in Albania, will it repeat the fate in Iraq?

When the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO/ MEK/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) was first relocated in Albanian territory in 2013, public opinion was instigated about the group. Rajavi’s cult was perhaps the first organization that had entered the country as a refugee, and was able to take up a place for the deployment of its members, from the very beginning. They had some special issues unrelated to normal refugees such as restrictions on cross-party visits to the city, restrictions on contacts with people outside their camps, uniformed clothing, the absence of any children among 2,000 men and women and etc…

By passing time, a number of members of the group left the group. The number of defectors has mounted to over 500 to this date. The disclosures on the human rights abuses inside the MEK that were made by former members and the fact that the group was listed as a terrorist organization by the European Union and the US Department of State, were was the reasons of the Albanian people’s cautiousness towards the Cult of Rajavi.
Besides, Americans’ support for the relocation of MEK members and the pressure on the Albanian government to receive members of the group, ultimately raised questions for the people of the country. Questions that were drawn to reports in Albanian newspapers and Internet websites, such as why these people were expelled from Iraq? Why does America act as a supporter of this group to resettle them? And if this group claims to fight against the Iranian regime, why they will not continue this fight in their country or around the Iranian borders?
The clashes of members of the MEK with defectors in the streets and daily news of the death of members of the group in the so-called Camp Ashraf three, increased the sense of danger regarding the group’s presence for the people Albania.

With the rise in the demands and questions by the people, which pushed the Albanian government to respond especially to the media, the group’s leaders began to take actions to reduce the concerns. These actions began with news and articles published in some Albanian media. Also, the group’s plans for communicating with Albanian people included the invitation of journalists and groups to have limited and controlled visit of their camp, free medical services to neighbors of the camp in Manez and providing a small financial assistance for certain people. This, of-course added other questions to the previous questions: What such refugee groups have such facilities or why and how do they provide such services?!

Under the orders of the leaders of the MEK, there were other activities to reduce the complication of the agenda, including the teaching of Albanian language to some members of the group in order to connect with people in the society as a direct advertising space to show off the group as an innocent entity to Albanian people.
However, with all the efforts of the MEK –which was like an operation for the group in Albania– a sense of distrust and danger was left for the people of this country about the presence of this formerly designated terrorist group with a dark background of terrorist acts and cult-like violence cult. They began to express concern at the stage of political demands to the Albanian government. In fact, today, the request for the expulsion of the members of the Cult of Rajavi from the country, along with demands such as political, economic and social problems of the people, are demanded from the government and the parliament of Albania.

In another words, the same fate that a decade after the collapse of Saddam Hussein happened to the MEK in Iraq, is waiting the group in Albania. The experience has shown that the awareness of people and then their demands to expel this intruder from their soil, as it happened in Iraq, will leave no other way for the Albanian government than the expulsion of the MEK

But this time, if the leaders of the organization are forced to relocate, it can be said with certainty that they will sign the decree of the complete collapse of their organization, because the experience of the other members will not allow them to once again decipher, deceive and resort to another grouping. This time we have to wait for the defection of the majority of the rank and file of the group in Albania, which means the loss of about two thousand forces of the cult of Rajavi.

Mujahedin Khalq as an Opposition Group

MEK Intelligence gathering on journalists

Members of the Mujahedin Khalq (MEK/ MKO/ PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) in camp Ashraf three, Albania, have been tasked with gathering intelligence on journalists via telephone.

The new order from MEK leaders to increase the focus on telephone intelligence gathering from reporters and journalists was issued after photos and news were leaked from inside the group headquarters in Albania. The group’s leaders appear to be seeking sources of this disseminate news and images within themselves.

Therefore, the TET unit of Camp Ashraf, tasked with telephone intelligence gathering, is tasked with finding phone numbers of news outlets media activists and their relatives calling them in order to collect information, a regular basis. Calls from the MEK agents in Europe, in particular from Albania, focus mainly on media reporters who publish news material on the MEK camps in Albania.

The MEK agents use a new hardware that make these calls include Iran numbers on reporters ‘phone screens to avoid journalists’ suspicions about the calls as much as possible. However, such telephone numbers do not exist in Iran’s mobile operator networks.

The MEK agents call under the cover of a government official or an affiliate of a government agency and express gratitude for the inserted content about the MEK in Albania! Asserting that more information is needed, they try to find sources of the news and information.

Although most of the MEK’s efforts to discredit the information have been unsuccessful, it has increased the need for journalists to be vigilant and well-informed about the methods of telephone intelligence gathering.
