If asked to name a terrorist organization most Americans could likely name Al Qaeda, Al Shabbab, and a few others. Few are probably familiar with the Mujahedin-e Khalq or Peoples Mujaheddin of Iran known by its initials MEK. Accused of killing American servicemen and contractors in the 1970s…
Israel’s self-proclaimed, but deceitful, image as a terror victim, which used to be a taken-for-granted fact by some in the West was blown when Obama administration officials leaked that the Zionist regime has fervently allied with a cultish US-terror listed group called the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization/MEK/MKO/PMOI…
Now we can begin to understand how this relatively small player came to be the organisation that broke the news that Iran had been ‘secretly hiding’ uranium enrichment facilities from the IAEA for two decades. Capitalising on the issue du jour, Iran’s purported nuclear weapons, the MEK network focused on telling the Necocon chicken-hawks in Washington exactly what the Israelis wanted them to hear.
The group in question is the Mujahedin-e Khalq, or MEK, which got onto our list of terrorist organizations decades ago by, among other things, killing Americans..However, within only the last few months, according to NBC News, MEK agents have murdered people by placing bombs on their cars.

The vagueness is such that prominent figures such as Rudy Giuliani have palled around with the MEK (Mojahedin-e Khalq or People’s Holy Jihadis) of Iran, which was on the terrorism watch list for years, with no adverse reaction from the government. But now the Israel lobbies have succeeded in getting the MEK, which has a secret alliance with Israeli intelligence,
While the Journal doesn’t mention MeK’s reported role in the attacks, it does forecast what Iran’s response would be if MeK was delisted. ..”Many of Iran’s top leaders, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, were targets of MeK aka MKO/PMOI attacks during the 1980s.”Clearly, like any country, Iran takes assassination attempts on its people seriously.
