Iranian foreign minister Ali Akbar Salehi confirmed an Interpol request concerning Gholam Shakuri, hinting the suspect was a member of the Mujahedeen group.”There are 150 Gholam Shakuris (in Iran). Interpol sent us a question about this name, and our investigation showed a certain Gholam Shakuri who lives in the United States and is a member of the Mujahedeen-e Khalq Organization aka MKO/MEK/PMOI..
Israel and terrorist organizations like the Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) aka MEK/PMOI have [tried to] hurt our sacred establishment using assassination,” she said.Karami added that if UN human rights rapporteur, Ahmed Shaheed, aims to protect justice and human rights, he should talk to the families of Iranian victims of terror.
Director of the greater Khalis region, Abdul-Jabbar Ahmed al-Obeidi, said many victims of MEK aka MKO/PMOI terrorism have filed complaints with Iraq’s Judiciary. Secretary General of the Association of Justice to defend the victims of Mojahedin Khalq in Iraq, Dr. Nafie Isa, described how the MEK used occupied land to attack Iraq’s citizens. He said the media should expose the MEK’s crimes and interference in the internal affairs of Iraq ..
Expulsion of the MKO from Iraq is a demand of all people that should be respected and obeyed,”Mayor of al-Adhim town in Diyala province, Abdul Jabbar Ahmed al-Obeidi, said during the rally…Al-Obeidi said that the Iraqi population of the province want the fertile lands under the MKO/MEK/PMOI occupation to be freed and given back to the people and farmers for the agricultural and economic development of the province.
In the 1970s, however, MEK was responsible for the death of three American officers and three civilian contractors in Iran. The group also voiced significant support for Iran’s taking of hostages during the Iranian hostage crisis, and some reports indicate that members of the group celebrated the 9/11 attacks, though the organization publicly condemned the attacks.MEK has conducted a number of other terrorist attacks as well, but most have been excused because they were directed against the Iranian government…
Salehi said there are 150 names similar to the one requested by Interpol for the alleged plot to kill the Saudi envoy to Washington.”There are 150 Gholam Shakuris (in Iran). Interpol sent us a question about this name, and our investigation showed a certain Gholam Shakuri who lives in the United States and is a member of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO),”Salehi was quoted by Saudi newspaper Asharq al-Awsat ..
The record extends from the days it was killing Americans while opposing the shah, through supporting the hostage-taking at the U.S. embassy in Tehran, through the long period during which it was working for the Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein. The record is not based just on what is said by the State Department or an intelligence agency or any governmental component with a policy to support, much less on anything the Iranian regime might say. If you want a recent independently reported portrait ..
One thing is crystal clear: Mrs. Tanter is taking her allegations to The New York Times and other outlets who have already covered the MEK’s activities up to this point. Her allegations are buttressed by a thick file of papers, diary notes, photostatically reproduced copies of Iran Policy Committee documents, and a complete list of the Iran Policy Committee’s e-mail contacts by name and accompanying e-mail addresses …
The anti-Iran terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization aka MKO/MEK/PMOI will be expelled from Iraq by the end the year, Iraqi lawmaker said.Uday Awwad, the Sadrist Iraqi MP, insisted that Iraqis “will witness the MKO expelled from the country this year”..As well as assassinating more than 12,000 Iranians, the MKO is responsible for over 25,000 Iraqi lives..Contrary to the US will, Iraqi officials want to expel the terrorist cult.
… There is no history of such behavior even when the country was militarily much weaker and politically unstable. Thus, to best answer the question is to identify those who would benefit the most from a confrontation between the U.S. and Iran. Clearly those who have the most to gain from such a clash are Israel and the Iranian opposition, particularly the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) aka MEK/PMOI..
