In a meeting with Habilian Association Secretary General, a number of Iraqi educated women insisted on Iraq’s right to expel the anti-Iran terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO/MEK/PMOI), Habilian Association (families of Iranian terror victims) news website reported…“It is said that the MKO has killed 25000 Iraqi people, but I want to declare that much more Iraqis were steeped in blood by the cult,” an Iraqi lecturer and activist said.
Looking at a nearly two decade-long history of collaboration between a dictator and a terrorist accomplice, it is not hard to speculate about the reasons for MKO’s falling out with the post-Saddam Iraqi Government. From its very first days of escape from Iran and its settlement in France, the organization and Saddam felt close affinity and there started a covert collaboration between the two and MKO willingly began to accept Saddam’s donations …
The Iraqi people are familiar with the strong relationship that linked the organization with elements of the former regime and the coalition between them and the fateful military support and material submitted to it by the former system and they will never forget the blood of Iraqi children that has been lost at the hands of these terrorists, and now [the Iraqi people] insist on their right to bring them to trial and justice.
In the documents found at Iraq’s intelligence ministry and other security offices after the toppling of Saddam, the leaders of the terrorist organization have announced that they slaughtered 25,000 Iraqi people on different occasions and over various issues,”different Iraqi groups in the eastern province of Diyala said in a statement released to the country’s Prime Minister, Nuri al-Maliki.
… but he defends what he calls the”oppressed”members of the Ba’ath party, and the Mujahedin-e Khalq, whose members residing in Camp Ashraf are waiting to be relocated to a desolated camp as decided by the Iraqi Government …
So far, the failure of the Muthana relocation attempt means that the issue of the MKO remains stuck in a stalemate. That is much because nobody is still convinced that the group’s terrorist potentialities are diminished and its link with insurgent groups gut off; it is a risk to have them around..Iraqi Government is to move Ashraf residents to Nuqrat al-Salman, a desolated prison camp. Although MKO has started a vast propaganda blitz to show its strong opposition to the decision, does Rajavi deserves any other place on the earth than a wasteland to wander?
Iran’s ambassador to Iraq on Saturday announced that the Baghdad government is seriously pursuing its policy on the expulsion of the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO/MEK/PMOI) from the country.”Based on our information, the government of Iraq is preparing preliminary measures for transferring the group’s members from Camp Ashraf to Samawah Province (Southeast of Baghdad),”Iranian Ambassador to Baghdad Hassan Kazzemi Qomi told FNA.
Rajavi’s message contains a new and considerable point too and that’s the conditional acceptance of leaving Iraqi territory by Rajavi. Rajavi says that he welcomes the plan by Iraqi government to transfer MKO to a third country but “on condition that MKO’s properties and funds that have been produced by their own expenses and works for 23 years and mounts to 200 million dollars should be investigated according to lawyers’ opinions.”
Mrs. Maryam Ghajar Azdanlo should and must answer this rational and logical question; how come has she not expounded on or taken any position against the savagery and brutality of the former Iraq dictator, Saddam Hussein up to now? And instead, she and her colleagues have tried their best to distort and defame the current popular government of Iraq and its prominent and dignified prim-minister. They have not spoken a word regarding their previous host and landlord, Saddam Hussein and his atrocities and suppressive attitude. WHY?
… As we ex-members all know, the MKO leaders will now be holding all kinds of meetings among the rank and file about that 200 million dollars. They will be saying that Brother Massoud is trying to do whatever he can for you, and that he wants to get this money to give to you … They are trying to convince people that really want to leave and get on with their lives, that if you go now you will get nothing, but if you wait and do what I say you will get something. This is just like before when Fahime Arvani said ‘we’ve got billons of dollars and whoever stays with us will get his or her share’.
