Iraqi lawmaker Habib al-Turfi reiterated the terrorist nature of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, also known as the MEK, NCR and PMOI), and said any politician dealing with such organization that kills Iraqis is a terrorist and must be held accountable.
the Rajavis say that a member of the MEK aka MKO/PMOI has to offer their blood and breath to the leadership. They continue that, if any member is not willing to offer his/her life for the cause of the group, his or her life is Haram (forbidden). What makes MEK scarier is that the group has never taken any practical step to distance itself from its history of violation and terror. ..
MeK is treated differently because they are Our Terrorists. NBC News reported that “deadly attacks on Iranian nuclear scientists are being carried out by an Iranian dissident group [MeK] that is financed, trained and armed by Israel’s secret service,” while The New Yorker‘s Seymour Hersh detailed in April that the U.S. has provided…
While ex-US officials are receiving money from the MEK/MKO/PMOI, rather than providing it, the tolerance of the close work with the group has been a Washington oddity for some time. There’s some”enemy of my enemy is my friend”logic around this ..and some of its advocates view it is a government in waiting..But the group has limited support inside Iran
The Mujahideen-e Khalq aka MEK/MKO/PMOI will never have the necessary popular grassroots to carry the banner of a future revolution against the Islamic Republic of Iran…While the MEK has an extensive public history of violence in Iran, the pinnacle of its repugnance in the eyes of many Iranians came during its cooperation with Saddam Hussein’s Iraq
In order to penetrate into Iran MEK militants need to use territories of neighbor countries. However, permission of neighbor countries for it is not required. They may apply various methods that the terrorists use like entering different countries under different names through which they can enter Iran..Azerbaijan itself would be interested in cooperation with Iran to prevent MEK militants
Former director of the Mossad Meir Dagan told a senior US official in 2007, as revealed in a State Department cable published by WikiLeaks that the US and Israel should exploit disaffected minority groups in Iran in order to “change the ruling regime in Iran.”As recently as 2007, a State Department report warned that the MEK, retains “the capacity and will” to attack “Europe, the Middle East, the United States, Canada, and beyond.
IACNT and IANCC paid the lobbying firms in Washington thousands of dollars to get signatures for the congressional resolution. They paid the speakers lobby thousands of dollars to get Rendell, Giuliani and Crowley, participants said.And they funded a series of sleek ads that have aired on channels like Fox calling for a delisting of the M.E.K. aka MKO/PMOI
American diplomats firmly pushed back Friday on reports suggesting that the U.S. must remove a controversial Iranian anti-regime group, the Mujaheddin-e-Khalq (MEK), from a U.S. list of designated terrorist organizations…In short, the court did not order the Secretary of State to revoke the MEK designation as a Foreign Terrorist Organization,” Benjamin continued…
the reality is that the group’s beliefs are antithetical to liberal and democratic principles. The MEK’s reinvention as a “democratic” opposition group is a classic example of a revolutionary organization adopting the rhetoric of its would-be Western patron. Suffice it to say that a group that relied on the patronage and protection of Saddam Hussein for over two decades..
