First of all we would like to thank you because of your brave positions regarding Rajavi’s Cult and your robust humanitarian views in this regard.

We, the victims of this inhumane and suppressive cult (Rajavi’s Cult) would like to further inform you that the existence of this cult is very dangerous not only for its own members who have been trapped for decades in the notorious Ashraf-garrison in Iraq, but it is also very hazardous and perilous for western and European countries.

The nature and the content of this so called organization is totally cultic and we can all inform you much more about this cult if you grant us an opportunity to have a personal appointment to meet with you.

We are all witnesses to the cruelty and tyranny which exists in this cult. We have all been under severe and harsh psychological and physical tortures which were implemented by the henchmen of this inhumane religious cult.

We support your activities and endeavors against violence, and Rajavi’s cultish ideology.

Best Regards,
Iran- Peyvand Association

We are the former veteran members of PMOI (Rajavi’s cult), a terrorist cult organization which has been blacklisted as a terrorist organization by USA and Canada.
We would like to inform your Excellency that MR. ALEJO VIDAL QUADRASS, the Vice President of the European Parliament is helping and backing up the PMOI’s leader MRS. MARYAM AZDANLO and her terrorist cult in European parliament.

We would like to notify your Excellency that this brutal and savage religious cult (PMOI) has perpetrated lots of crimes against the people of Iraq during Saddam Hussein’s reign and suppressed and repressed its own members for decades.

We are all victims of this brutal and tyrant cult, who had been under severe and harsh physical and psychological mistreatment and torture by the henchmen of this cult for years just because we dared to criticize the leaders of this cult and their cultish ideology which is considered as a deadly sin and is totally against the cultish regulations and rules of law in this cult.

We are all witnesses of killing and murdering lots of innocent people of Iraq by PMOI’s military missions in complicity and complete co-operation with Saddam Hussein’s army during the popular uprising of the people of Iraq.

We are all surprised that MR. VIDAL QUADRASS is helping and backing up such a cruel and bloodthirsty cult which has committed numerous crimes not only against its own members but also against the people of Iraq.

Before MR. VIDAL QUADRASS, MR. CASACA, a politician from Portugal, was doing the same job in favor of PMOI, backing up and helping PMOI in European Parliament, but we saw that he lost his popularity in European Parliament and they did not vote for him and he had to withdraw from European politics.

Helping and backing up this terrorist and inhumane cult will ruin and damage the popularity and prestige of anyone who aligns himself with them.

Best Regards

deliberation on the current conditions of Mojahedin after the removal of the EU terrorist entities’ list, current developments of the Ashraf Garrison and reflection of the imminent outcomes of Masood Rajavi’s recent message.

Dated February 21 of 2009, a 6-hour gathering held with the presence of separated ex-members of the People Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI) in Paris. Most of these former members have already been emancipated from the cage of Ashraf Garrison and reached the European states. In this get-together, the latest developments of the Ashraf Garrison and critical conditions of the incarcerated victims were discussed and the participants implored the Iraqi govt. to spread out its human efforts with the aiming of creature of the free space for victims’ families visit away from Mojahedin officials’ interventions and intrusions. The précis of the partakers’ views is as underneath.

In the opening, Mr. Karim Haghi, one of the Mojahedin former top officials put forward some questions pertaining to the past and existing developments of the Mojahedin. Subsequently, the Mojahedin victims replied the proposed questions in conformity with their visual observations as outlined beneath:

Mr. Engineer Hassan piransar: the Mojahedin cult leadership, Masood Rajavi, and Maryam Rajavi left their victims by themselves and fled at any historic juncture and dilemma to save their own lives. Masood Rajavi and Maryam Rajavi were the first who escaped the scene of war. In the military rules, the commander is the last one who leaves the war field. This reality shows that this leadership does not pay the cost of his action from his own pocket…. One of the ways to put pressure on the Iraqi govt. is to resort hunger strike versus the Ashraf garrison victims’ willing. The Mojahedin in charges compel the victims to go on hunger strike by means of threat…. afterward apprehend of Maryam Rajavi, the top officials of the cult asked the whole subordinates to commit self-burning suicide in the Ashraf garrison and the around of this base. Nevertheless, no one accepted the top officials’ demands. From then on, the question arose among the subordinates that, if the self-burning suicide is a correct and revolutionary action, why the cult top officials do not commit so…

Mr. Nader Naderi, an ex-member of the Mojahedin cult who has taken part in the Mojahedin military hostilities against Kurdish not guilty people, confessed the terrible scenes of the Kurds genocide and carnage. Such as a woman commander called Maboobeh ordered her subordinates to open a fire on a residential place occupied by many people on the contrary to her subordinates’ objections…

Mr. Hamid Siah Mansouri: Masood Rajavi’s latest message is an evident symptom of the violation of international laws owing to ignoring the right of national sovereignty of Iraq through frequent threats. He aroused the Ashraf victims for hunger strike followed by commit suicide and self-burning. According to the principles of the UN charter, Iraq govt. can work out the pre-emptive actions to defend its territory that facing jeopardy and insecurity.

Mr. Mansoor Nazari: now, Masood and Maryam Rajavi claim that the extradition to Iran is a “crime against humanity” but they themselves have already exercised these action frequent years and sent the dissidents of Mojahedin cult to Iran to pretext that there was no dissident surrounded by the cult. This cult killed the ones who had decided to abandon the cult as Saied Noroozi and Saied Kiani and the rest.

Mr. Mohammad Razaghi, a former member of Mojahedin cult: according to Rajavi’s rule, nobody was allowed to meet his or her family within the cultic relations. What happen? In addition, what has been changed? Nowadays, Rajavi has become an advocate of the family relations and feelings. Following the put an end to Saddam Hussein dictatorship, the Mojahedin cult top officials were unexpectedly surprised because, they bumped into a new phenomenon called ‘family’. So that they didn’t want the victims’ families to enter the Ashraf garrison. Therefore, they claimed that these families are the mercenaries of the Iranian Secret Service and asked Americans to detain them then American military forces took in for questioning these families ensuing Americans found out that they were victims’ families after a few hours.

Other victims at this gathering confirmed the above-mentioned bitter realties and expressed their terrible conditions under the control of Mujahidin

AS the head of the judiciary committee of Belgium, Mr. Willems also overlooks the state of cults within Belgium. Mr. Behzad Alishahi & Karim Haggi explained in detail their own personal experience with the cult of Mojahedin. They went into great details of the inner workings of this cult (MKO).

Mr. Willems confirmed that Belgium regards the Mojahedin-E khalq of Iran as a dangerous cult, and that his talks with both gentlemen further confirmed his stance.

Finally there was discussion on how to go about limiting the works of the cult of Mojahedin.

Perhaps one of the explanations for this disaster can be that few, if any, western governments can come to an agreement as to what terrorism means. Whenever the economic and special interests of the west are in danger, there seems to be no hindrance or doubt in working with known terrorists. The violent and barbaric regime of Taliban came to power in 1996 amidst a civil war with the backing of Pakistan and C.I.A. with funding from Saudi Arabia and U.A.E. And it seems Pakistan is now being portrayed as a close ally in the fight against terrorism.

Saudi Arabia was one of the biggest contributors to the Taliban regime and was one of only three nations worldwide which recognized the Taliban as a legitimate government. Today, these three countries are regarded as the United States’ allies in the ‘war against terrorism’. There are many examples of such double standards, which begs the question, ‘how are we to trust the west’s intentions in this global battle against terrorism?’

The west conveniently ignores human rights issues in countries which it regards as allies such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and others. Clearly this ‘war on terror’ is a complex, multilayered issue.

A glaring example of the lack of clarity on this issue is that a number of western countries, in the name of fighting the Iranian regime, have chosen to support the terrorist cult of Mojahedin-e Khalq of Iran (aka MKO, PMOI, NCRI). The MKO has a 40 years’ history filled with violence and terrorist activities. This group has also shown the brunt of its viciousness toward its own members, and has resorted to torture and imprisonment and also killing of its internal opponents. The cult of Mojahedin-e Khalq, drew a large following with its anti-imperialist and anti-Israeli slogans during and after the revolution of 1979. They proclaimed in its newspaper that they would turn Iran to another Vietnam for the Americans and the assassination of six American personnel in Iran before the revolution was and always has been a proud achievement in their past. Of course they will deny this now, but documents and evidence show otherwise.

The MKO cult then fled to Iraq and for the next 20 years became a close ally of Saddam Hussein. Under the reign of Saddam Hussein the MKO became a more trusted part of his apparatus of power than his own Republican Guard. And he had good reasons for feeling that way. The MKO has a large and well connected public relations department that will distribute any news about Iran to the outside world no matter how small and insignificant. But it’s interesting to note that the Mojahedin-e Khalq have never publicly denounced the terrorist act of 11th of September either on their TV channels or their numerous websites or newspapers. Even more startling are the stories of joyful celebration which greeted the September 11th attack which were revealed by ex-members of MKO who fled the organization after the Iraq invasion of 2003 and the fall of Saddam Hussein. In 1991 when the Ba’athist Party and military was facing uprisings from the Iraqi masses, the MKO stood firm and helped to suppress the Iraqi people on Saddam Hussein’s orders. The Mojahedin-e Khalq saw their common interest with Saddam Hussein, and formed an even closer relationship with the Iraqi dictator.

Interestingly, the greatest support for the MKO beside Saddam Hussein has always come from the U.K. parliament; the House of Lords and the House of Commons. A number of these parliamentarians are unaccountably eager to present the MKO as an alternative to the current regime for the Iranian people.

A parliamentary group has been created for the so-called task of ‘freeing Iran’. I personally have no objection to efforts aimed at the establishment of a democratic government in Iran and have fought for the past 20 year for that same purpose. But when I see that these members of the British parliament are supporting a terrorist cult, then no matter how much I study it, I can’t seem to come to grips with the thinking and motives of these parliamentarians. I ask myself whether this is the result of old-fashioned British colonial thinking which deems it necessary to interject their involvement in the fate of Third World countries. Or could it be that the few individuals who openly support the MKO have short term interest in the form of payment from the MKO, as their reason of support? Or maybe it’s simply old age that has brought them to this decision?

When members of the Lords support the Mojahedin-e Khalq, then democracy and human rights have surely lost their meaning.

I’m certain that none of this support will lead anywhere simply because the MKO have no base of support in Iran and there is nothing but contempt for an organization that is seen as treacherous and an enemy of the people.

Western politicians must become aware that the people of Iran hate the MKO with a passion. Hundreds of former members of the MKO who have left the organization and have are settled around Europe and other countries are more than willing to speak about the facts surrounding this dangerous, destructive cult. I look forward to the time that particular members of the House of Lords finally pay attention to these facts.

Respectfully,

Dear Mr. Layton,

GOOD TERRORIST AND BAD TERRORIST?

We would like to request you to address the Iranian Community’s concerns regarding the reality that certain members of the Conservatives and Liberal Caucuses are receiving support from and meeting regularly with an exile group of Iranians aligned with Neo -Cons in the U.S. Indeed, given that the group previously acted under the patronage of Saddam Hussein,. The group is despised by mainstream Iranians residing in Canada, as well as in Iran, ordinary citizens and political activists.

The organizations is so called Mojahedin Khalq (MKP) and/or the National Council of Resistance of Iran (N.C.R.I). Nonetheless, they habitually assume given names to elude the authorities of countries in which they are active.

The number of occasions on which Liberal or Conservative members of Parliament have met with this organization are numerous, and include, but are not restricted to the followings:

1. December 18, 2005: Two Conservatives member of Parliaments (MPs) and one independent flew to Toronto to attend a conference organized and attended exclusively by members of the Mojahedin at the Colony Hotel in Toronto. The Four MPs consisting of Stockwell Day, Paul Forseth, Yasmin Ratansi , and David Killgour all spoke and endorsed the idea of regime change in Iran by military force.

2. March 31, 2006: Yasmin Ratansi; Jim Karygiannis; Susan Kadis; and Bryon Wilfert attended a meeting organized and attended exclusively by members of the Mojahedin organization. In fact, Yasmin Ratansi and Bryon Wilfert decided to ignore a meeting arranged by mainstream Iranians and decided instead to only attend this meeting. Such as they did at a forum by four parties candidates on election on Jan 9, 06.

As such, while it is understandable that reasonable people will disagree about the proper definition to be accorded terrorists, given that this is an organization listed as terrorist by the Canadian Government, suggests that these Members of Parliament have taken it upon themselves to distinguish between good and bad terrorists.

For example, how is it that Foreign Minister Mackay can state "not a red cent to "Hamas" and decide to withhold funding from the Palestinian territories, while other Members of Parliament meet with the terrorist organization members right here in our own backyard. To put it differently, am I the only person who finds it hypocritical that Mr. Stockwell Day who is the current Minister of Public Safety has no misgivings about dealing with a terrorist organization?

It is important to note that, the vast majority of Iranian-Canadians residing in this country loathe the Mojahedin. While the majority of Iranians fled Iran to escape theocrats authoritarian regime, the Ayatollahs, they have the same tolerance for the Mojahedin.. The reasons for such hatred are, after all, quite obvious and understandable. Because the organization is undemocratic and sectarian that practicing violence. Such reputable organizations as Human Rights Watch have recently dedicated two studies to cataloguing serious violation of Human Rights and crimes undertaken by this organization.

Statement on Responses to Human Rights Watch Report on Abuses by the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) (February 5, 2006)

Human Rights Abuses Inside the Mojahedin Khalq Camps (May 2005)

As Iranian-Canadians, we expect our government in Ottawa to make good on its promise of supporting democracy. As members of Canadian society we are wedded to the understanding that democracy in Iran will not be achieved by resorting to military action or supporting proxy organizations such as the Mojahedin.

Our appeal is simple, respect the views of Iranian-Canadians. Do put pressure on the ruling clergies to respect freedom of speech and free all the prisoners of conscious, seeking justice for Zahra Kazemi and respect the Human Rights and democracy. Democracy in Iran will not achieved by the military actions. Any government that turns a blind eye to atrocities that are blatant violations of human rights, is an accessory to these acts. May we point out after more than 53 years Iranian have still not forgotten the U.S. led coup in 1953 against the democratically elected government of Dr. Mohammad Mosadegh.

With the hope of your immediate consideration,

Yours truly
