The MEK aka MKO/PMOI seems to believe it can keep control of Camp Ashraf, its longtime compound near the Iran-Iraq border, and Clinton will still be under pressure to delist the group, this official said.”What bothers all of us working for a peaceful solution is that the MEK seems to believe all they have to do is hold firm and do whatever they want. They are being encouraged in this view by some of their American supporters..
Ban called on the Iraqi government and residents of both camps[Liberty & Ashraf] “to continue to work together in a constructive and flexible manner in order to complete the relocation process without further delay.”He stressed the importance of residents of both camps cooperating with Iraqi authorities and stressed the U.N.’s commitment to a peaceful solution.
Nevertheless, all of Abedini’s previous articles remain archived on HuffPo. Furthermore, Greenwald points out that”The Huffington Post has also repeatedly published Ali Safavi, who is also..There’s yet another MeK/NCRI /MKO spokesman and propagandist who also regularly posts articles on HuffPo: Alireza Jafarzadeh.
Despite their boastful claims of being opposed to terrorism, the United States and its European cronies have long been the staunch supporters of criminal organizations such as MKO which has brutally slaughtered hundreds of Iranians during the 8-year war with Iraq and introduced itself as a murderous terrorist entity and the number one enemy of the Iranian nation.
A wave of American leaders have illegally lined up to get their slice of the MEK/MKO/PMOI bankroll for speaking on their behalf…The end-game of all this bought and paid for rhetoric is a writ entered on June 1, 2012 to the United States Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C. asking Hillary Clinton, to review the designation of MEK ..
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…
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and the Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations in Iraq Martin Kobler agreed to close the file on the Mojahedin Khalq organisation aka MKO/MEK/PMOI and move them accordance with established deadlines. The statement said …
“It is past time for the MeK to recognize that Ashraf is not going to remain an MeK base in Iraq,” said Ambassador Daniel Benjamin, State Department coordinator for counter-terrorism, on the call. “The Iraqi Government is committed to closing it, and any plan to wait out the government in the hope that something will change is irresponsible and dangerous.”
The MEK is engaged in a multifaceted effort to get off the list, and, as part of its strategy, supporters of the group have recruited prominent former lawmakers and government officials from both parties to appear at pro-MEK events in both the U.S. and Europe. Some of these advocates have received tens of thousands of dollars for their appearances.
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
