Collaboration with Terrorist MKO Shows Real Face of Syrian Rebels

A senior Iranian legislator reiterated that the visits and collaboration between the ringleaders and members of the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, also known as MEK, NCR and PMOI) and the so-called Free Syrian Army display the real face and goals of insurgents in Syria.

"The invitation of the deputy commander of the so-called Free Syrian Army, the armed forces who are opposed to the Damascus government, to the terrorist Monafeqin (hypocrites as MKO members are called in Iran) grouplet shows that they themselves are terrorists," member of the parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Ebrahim Aqa-Mohammadi said on Saturday.

He added that the invitation of the Syrian group to the MKO to visit Damascus displays that the terrorist MKO is a role model for the Syrian insurgents.

In related remarks earlier this month, a commander of the so-called Free Syrian Army (FSA) also described the terrorist MKO as a role model for Syrian insurgents.

"Mojahedin-e Khalq is our role model, and we inform them that all doors of our houses are open to them," Malek al-Kurdi, a deputy commander of the so-called Free Syrian Army, said, addressing a joint meeting of the MKO and the ringleaders of the anti-Assad armed rebel groups.

According to the Habilian Association – a human rights group formed of the families of 17,000 Iranian terror victims – his comments came just days after a highly-placed security source told Arabic language Ur news agency that hundreds of terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq members have entered Syria to back the so-called Free Syrian Army.

Another senior official with the insurgent group thanked the MKO terrorist group for its support and solidarity with armed rebels in Syria.

Earlier reports from Syria said security forces have arrested five MKO terrorists along with 35 armed insurgents.

Informed security sources in Syria said that 40 armed elements had been arrested along the country’s borders when they were trying to infiltrate into Syria.

"It has been revealed after interrogations that five of these armed people are members of the MKO," the source said on the condition of the anonymity.

The MKO members also confessed that the terrorist group is training Syrian terrorists on Turkey’s soil and under the support of some Arab and western states.

A Saudi colonel recently apprehended by the Syrian security forces disclosed that the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization has played a major role in the recent conflicts in Syria.

According to the colonel, a number of 20,000 terrorists, among them a number of MKO members, were due to attack Damascus from four directions and occupy the city after the explosion inside the Syrian national security headquarters in the capital on June 18.

Also, the MKO terrorist group announced earlier this month that it had hosted a number of Syrian dissidents at the headquarters of its ringleader Massoud Rajavi in France.

The attack on Damascus was foiled by the Syrian troops, but the colonel did not have any further details as he had been arrested in the midst of the attack.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country.

Hundreds of people, including members of the security forces, have been killed, when some protest rallies turned into armed clashes.

The government blames outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups for the deaths, stressing that the unrest is being orchestrated from abroad.

In October 2011, calm was eventually restored in the Arab state after President Assad started a reform initiative in the country, but Israel, the US and its Arab allies are seeking hard to bring the country into chaos through any possible means. Tel Aviv, Washington and some Arab capitals have been staging various plots in the hope of increasing unrests in Syria.
