Should they choose extremist acts such as self-immolation, it will be their decision which we would regret…

the modern history of suicide bombers started with the Mojahedin’s[MKO/MEK/PMOI] suicide attacks against Iranian authorities during 1980’s..the use of the rich philosophy of martyrdom within a cult has given new meaning to martyrdom; it has changed it into new tools for materialization of the goals of the cult. ..when the co-leader of the Mojahedin; Maryam Rajavi was arrested for few days in France, eleven members of the organization set themselves on fire in front of the French embassies in several countries
