A report by Didehbancenter website said during the meeting between representatives of the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, also known as the MEK, PMOI and NCR) and remnants of the Jundollah group, the two sides reviewed an agreement they had earlier signed under the auspices of the US spy agency, CIA, in the Pakistani city of Quetta.

The report said Abdol Rauf Rigi, an elder brother of Jundollah’s executed ringleader Abdolmalek Rigi, Jundollah’s Mufti (religious authority), Mowlavi Qassem Panchgori and Saeed Turkmen Zehi – who had hidden in Saudi Arabia after Jundollah was disbanded in several operations of the Iranian police and security forces in 2009 and 2010 – represented Jundollah in the London meeting.

Based on the agreement, the MKO is tasked with training members of Jundollah in intelligence gathering, assassination operations and designing and making bombs.

The notorious group has built a safe haven in Pakistan and it escaped to this Eastern neighbor of the Islamic Republic each time it staged a terrorist operation in Iran before it was disbanded and its leaders were arrested and executed.

In its last operation in Iran, the Pakistani-based Jundollah terrorist group claimed responsibility for December 15, 2010 attack at the Imam Hussein Mosque in Iran’s Southeastern port city of Chabahar in Sistan and Balouchestan Province where people were commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (PBUH), the third Shiite Imam.

At least 38 mourners were killed and more than 89 others, including women and children, were injured in the attack.

The Jundollah group has claimed responsibility for numerous terrorist attacks in Iran. The group has carried out mass murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, acts of sabotage and bombings. They have targeted civilians and government officials as well as all ranks of Iran’s military.

In one of the worst cases, the terrorist group killed 22 citizens and abducted 7 more in the Tasouki region on a road linking the southeastern city of Zahedan to another provincial town.

In 2007, Jundollah kidnapped 30 people in the Sistan and Balouchestan province and took them to the neighboring Pakistan.

Jundollah claimed responsibility the same year for an attack on an Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) bus in which 11 IRGC personnel were killed.

In another crime in October 2009, the Pakistan-based terrorist Jundollah group claimed responsibility for a deadly attack in the Sistan and Balouchestan province which killed 42 people among them a group of senior military commanders, including Lieutenant Commander of the IRGC Ground Force Brigadier General Nourali Shoushtari.

The MKO, an Iranian armed exile group, and the Rigi terrorist group which operates from its major base in Pakistan, both have carried out a series of bombings and assassinations in Iran.

"A source close to the HQ of the National Council of Resistance (Mojahedin-e Khalq, MKO, MEK, Rajavi cult) in Paris told Iran-Interlink of the MKO’s ‘delight’ over the bombing in Chabahar, Iran, last week," Iran-Interlink Website said, explaining that the source made the remarks in a contact with the website.

According to the source, the MKO leaders started celebrations after they were informed of Jundollah’s success in staging the Wednesday terrorist bombing in Chabahar.

"Accordingly, a close circle of MKO leaders in the HQ of the terror group in Paris celebrated the massacre and praised Jundollah, which has claimed responsibility for the terrorist act," Iran-Interlink added.

The website quoted the source as saying that the MKO had been informed of the terrorist attack and had done the planning and provided all the needed logistic supports for Jundollah through its agents.

"Not only was the group informed about the terrorist attack well in advance, but this action was planned and carried out with the logistical help of the Mojahedin-e Khalq operatives based in Paris," it said.

After his capture last year, Jundollah leader Abdolmalek Rigi admitted to links with the MKO.
A suicide attack near a mosque in the Southeastern city of Chabahar on Wednesday killed at least 39 and wounded 93 civilians in a mourning ceremony held to commemorate the martyrdom anniversary of Shiites’ third Imam.

The attack took place outside Imam Hossein Mosque in the port city of Chabahar, in Sistan and Balouchestan province, near the border with Pakistan.

The Pakistani-based Jundollah terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attack.

Also, after Iran arrested Jundollah’s number one Abdolmalek Rigi in late February, the criminal ringleader confessed that he was traveling to Bishkek to meet with a high-ranking US official at a nearby military base to discuss new terrorist attacks on Iranian territory. Rigi was executed in June.

Iran says that there are few remaining elements of the group that the United States and British intelligence services are supporting. Tehran has arrested or killed a large number of the Jundollah terrorists, including the ringleader Abdolmalek Rigi and his brother and Jundollah’s number two man Abdolhamid Rigi.

Press TV interviewed Professor, Paul Sheldon Foote of California State University regarding the tragic terrorist attacks in Chabahar. Professor Foote shares his insights regarding the recent attacks in South Eastern Pakistan.

Press TV: We will look more into this with Professor, Paul Sheldon Foote of California State University. Professor, it’s good to have you with us. The timing of this attack is quite sensitive if you agree, as it comes during the Ashura ceremonies. What would you say is the intended goal of such attacks in Iran?

Foote: For many years now the neo-conservatives or neo-troskyites have been speaking in America with Iranian groups, suggesting the break-up of Iran. The whole purpose behind this is to go to minority groups and tell them that they are not well treated and to split up the country into little pieces.

Press TV: The US says those responsible must be held accountable. Jundallah says it has been supported by the US. How complicated is that?

Foote: It’s not very complicated at all, while in general American leaders try to keep it secret, in February 2011, then Vice President Dick Chaney went to Pakistan and very openly spoke in favor of them.

He called them gurillas and not terrorists and was supportive of them. He met with Pakistani leaders about ways to help them. That is fairly clear. The rest of it has been done covertly by the Department of Defense and by the CIA.

As the earlier report mentioned by Bob Bear, and another former CIA agent Phillip Giraldi had made similar reports about how the CIA is working with terrorist groups in the region.

Press TV: Professor, you just said such attacks are intended in breaking the country into pieces, but history has shown –at least for a number of attacks that have happened – that the lesson or the result was that people got more unified. Isn’t that a message would you say the West hasn’t received so far?

Foote: That’s right. Unfortunately, large numbers of Iranian Americans, who parrot whatever the Zionists want them to say in this country, the truth needs to be told.

When we are talking about terrorist organizations and America supports many in the region, you have to ask yourself who’s feeding them and who’s providing them with weapons and so forth. These are thousands of people.

In the case of Jundallah, much of their financing is either coming indirectly from America, Saudi Arabia and Pakistani intelligence and certainly by the drug trade.

If Americans were really serious about ending the war on terror, tens of millions of Americans can stop using drugs tomorrow, and watch what will happen to the drug business and the terrorism in the world.

Likewise in Iraq, Jundallah has been working in the past with the Iranian communists. So here you have one group that claims to be religious and another claiming to be communist.

There are approximately 3 thousand MKO terrorists in Iraq being protected by the American military.

Many American soldiers have died escorting these terrorists on shopping trips inside Iraq. I dare the American government to tell the parents and loved ones of these soldiers who were killed that they died escorting communist terrorists who are on the State Department’s list of terrorism on shopping expeditions.

In 2003, American forces attacked a camp in Iraq and killed some of those terrorists, and ever since then we have been protecting them and using them inside Iran to do terrorists activities. How bad of a terrorist country can you be other than what America’s example has become?

Press TV: You just mentioned the intelligence and the intelligence work that is happening in the Middle East region. What can be said about the role intelligence has when attacks like this happen in a country like Iran?

Foote: It’s a great shame that the CIA has taken advantage of its secret budgets to do these kind of evil activities.

The American taxpayers over history have given a lot of secret latitude to the CIA on the grounds that it couldn’t reveal who the agents were and the people were; therefore, they have been granted huge sums of money by Congress over the years with very little explanation of how they are spending it. Unfortunately, there are some very evil people now in the CIA who are supporting terrorist enemies of America.

Press TV: Many thanks to Professor, Paul Sheldon Foote with California State University joining us live from Irvine.

The post US politicians and the CIA openly support MKO and Jundallah terrorists appeared first on Nejat Society.

An apprehended member of the Jundollah terrorist group confessed that the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) and his group have established organized cooperation to wage stronger and more frequent terrorist attacks against Iran.

"A member of the Jundollah grouplet has very recently declared after his arrest that the group has established organized ties with the MKO," the Persian-language website, Jahan, reported on Tuesday.

The terrorist also confessed that a number of MKO members in Pakistan pledged to work with Jundollah in a bid to provide the group with intelligence and communications backup and assistance for suicide attacks and sabotage operations inside Iran, the report added.

According to the Persian website, the MKO and Jundollah terrorist groups have agreed to stage suicide attacks on gatherings, meetings and conventions affiliated to the Islamic Republic.

After Iran’s security forces arrested Jundollah’s No 1 and 2 and its other high-ranking and influential leaders in the last few months, an increasing number of Jundollah members have started surrendering themselves to the Iranian authorities.

The Pakistani based Jundollah terrorist group, directly sponsored and supported by Washington, is responsible for several terrorist operations which have killed tens of citizens, officials and security forces in southeastern Iran.

Abdolmalek Rigi, the ringleader of the terrorist group, confessed after his arrest in late February that his group was assisted and supported by the US and disclosed that he was on route to Bishkek to meet a high-ranking US official at a nearby military base when he was arrested by Iranian security forces.

Rigi also said that he and the US official were going to discuss new terrorist attacks on Iranian territory.

Rigi on June 2 admitted receiving assistance from the MKO, but relations between the two anti-Iran terrorist groups had surfaced a long time ago when US started plans to coordinate anti-Islamic Republic moves.

In August 2009, the Jundollah terrorist group warned the Baghdad government that it would retaliate against the closure of a main camp of MKO by the Iraqi forces.

"…the Iraqi government should know that its hostile measures against the residents of Camp Ashraf who are Iranian immigrants in this city are not and will not be in the interest of the Iraqi government," Jundollah warned in a statement issued in Iraq last August.

The MKO, whose main stronghold is in Iraq, has been in the country’s Diyala province since the 1980s.

Six years after toppling Saddam Hussein’s government in 2003, the country’s security forces took control of the training base of the MKO at Camp Ashraf – about 60km (37 miles) north of Baghdad and changed the name of the military center from Camp Ashraf to the Camp of New Iraq.

The Iraqi government and parliament have both voiced strong determination for expelling the group from the country.

The MKO started assassination of the citizens and officials after the revolution in a bid to take control of the newly established Islamic Republic. It killed several of Iran’s new leaders in the early years after the revolution, including the then President, Mohammad Ali Rajayee, Prime Minister, Mohammad Javad Bahonar and the Judiciary Chief, Mohammad Hossein Beheshti who were killed in bomb attacks by MKO members in 1981.

The MKO is behind a slew of assassinations and bombings inside Iran, a number of EU parliamentarians said in a recent letter in which they slammed a British court decision to remove the MKO from the British terror list. The EU officials also added that the group has no public support within Iran because of their role in helping Saddam Hussein in the Iraqi imposed war on Iran (1980-1988).

Many of the MKO members abandoned the terrorist organization while most of those still remaining in the camp are said to be willing to quit but are under pressure and torture not to do so.

A May 2005 Human Rights Watch report accused the MKO of running prison camps in Iraq and committing human rights violations.

According to the Human Rights Watch report, the outlawed group puts defectors under torture and jail terms.

The group fled to Iraq in 1986, where it was protected by Saddam Hussein and where it helped the Iraqi dictator suppress Shiite and Kurd uprisings in the country.

The terrorist group joined Saddam’s army during the Iraqi imposed war on Iran (1980-1988) and helped Saddam and killed thousands of Iranian civilians and soldiers during the US-backed Iraqi imposed war on Iran.

Since the 2003 US invasion of Iraq, the group, which now adheres to a pro-free-market philosophy, has been strongly backed by neo-conservatives in the United States, who argue for the MKO to be taken off the US terror list.

Whatever the idea of Rigi, the guerilla fighter, he said no to the regime through the most scathing language, i.e. gun.

This open support of Rigi comes by MKO while according to its official sites, the US and England have denied any cooperation with Rigi clarifying their position toward his terrorist actions. Disregarding the truth or falsehood of their claim, the significant point is that even these superpowers show reluctant to defend Rigi’s brutal terrorist activities due to his inexpressible barbarization. However, Mojahedin are to connect themselves to Rigi and his fugitive homicides as much as possible and introduce a pathological terrorist as an opposition against the Iranian government. The western and European advocators of the organization are to answer this question: how an armed group can make its utmost efforts through lobbying to be removed from the terrorist list of the US and other countries and at the same time it supports Abdolmalik Rigi? The US has to come to answer this question too due to giving political refuge to Mojahedin and also supporting them as prisoners of war in Iraq misusing international conventions. Mojahedin support Rigi overtly at a time when no opposition dares to support him.

The western sympathizers of Mojahedin have to answer what is the relationship between decapitating and spraying a number of hostages, even if related to Iranian government, and their slogans of fighting for freedom and democracy and demanding for the ethnic and religious rights of nations. Moreover, what is the relation between this terrorist and an opposition group like Mojahedin that constantly suggests a third democratic solution to confront its challenges. Their supporting Rigi means legitimizing any brutal and wicked action like that imposed on Muslim Bosnians in the world. It is equal to defending Rigi’s fellows to follow his path. In other words, despite all their trickery and demagogic slogans on democracy, Mojahedin try to destabilize the atmosphere of Iran in different ways like inciting the civil remonstrations by the interference of their terrorist agents as well as supporting Rigi and his shameful actions for organizing and enrolling his terrorist advocators and followers. Now the EU is to be ashamed of removing the name of MKO from its terrorist list. Moreover, the act of the EU court on removing the name of MKO from terrorist list due to the point that they denounced terrorist activity or support for any terrorist group or since February 2001 is meaningless.

The way Mojahedin denounce the detention of Rigi at the time being may imply that they are likely to support Bin Laden and Al-Qaede in the future if they were put behind bars by means of the justifications made in support of Rigi and his terrorist fellows and may accuse the US and England for arresting a notorious terrorist as well. The western and even the European parliamentarians and advocators of MKO avoid supporting Rigi. It means that they do not bear the terrorist reign of a group like Rigi on Iranians despite their opposition toward the Iranian regime. It is not clear how they can ignore and justify the act of Mojahedin in supporting Rigi. Can they accept the responsibility of the atrocities caused if in the future Rigi and his supporter, Mojahedin, rise to power? The fact is that the main achievement of Rigi’s seizure was that the real aggressive and liar visage of Mojahedin claiming to be after the accomplishment of democracy and human rights was uncovered once more and those supporting MKO came to the point that they will be the first victims of the organization if Mojahedin get to a position of political or military power.

The following is the detailed transcript of Rigi’s confession, stated in Farsi, as broadcasted on Press TV.

"After Obama was elected, the Americans contacted us and they met me in Pakistan.They met us after clashes with my group around March 17 in (the southeastern city of) Zahedan, and he (the US operative) said that Americans had requested a meeting."

"I said we didn’t have any time for a meeting and if we do help them they should promise to give us aid. They said they would cooperate with us and will give me military equipment, arms and machine guns. They also promised to give us a base along the border with Afghanistan next to Iran."

"They asked to meet me and we said where should we meet you and he said in Dubai. We sent someone to Dubai and we told a person to ask a place for myself in Afghanistan from the area near the operations and they complied that they would sort out the problem for us and they will find Mr. Rigi a base and guarantee his own security in Afghanistan or in any of the countries adjacent to Iran so that he can carry on his operations.

"They told me that in Kyrgyzstan they have a base called Manas near Bishkek, and that a high-ranking person was coming to meet me and that if such high-ranking people come to the United Arab Emirates, they may be observed by intelligence people but in a place like Bishkek this high-ranking American person could come and we could reach an agreement on making personal contacts. But after the last major operation we took part in, they said that they wanted to meet with us.

"The Americans said Iran was going its own way and they said our problem at the present is Iran… not al-Qaeda and not the Taliban, but the main problem is Iran. We don’t have a military plan against Iran. Attacking Iran is very difficult for us (the US). The CIA is very particular about you and is prepared to do anything for you because our government has reached the conclusion that there was nothing Americans could do about Iran and only I could take care of the operations for them.

"One of the CIA officers said that it was too difficult for us to attack Iran militarily, but we plan to give aid and support to all anti-Iran groups that have the capability to wage war and create difficulty for the Iranian (Islamic) system. They reached the conclusion that your organization has the power to create difficulties for the Islamic Republic and they are prepared to give you training and/or any assistance that you would require, in terms of telecommunications security and procedures as well as other support, the Americans said they would be willing to provide it at an extensive level."

Iran’s security forces arrested Rigi on Tuesday by bringing down his plane over the Iranian airspace, as he was onboard a flight from the United Arab Emirates to Kyrgyzstan.
