Adnan, Al-Alyan and Alaani Cry for MKO!

What forced me to write this were the cries of Adnan, Al-Alyan and Alaani for the MKO in Brussels.

First, this double behavior these people are following will have nothing except destruction of Iraq and Iraqis, including Shiites and Sunnis, and only helps their personal interests. As everyone knows, the MKO is an Iranian organization and besides, it has been categorized as a terrorist group. Now, what’s the mystery of relations of Adnan, Al-Alyan, Zafer and Al-Zari with this organization that they cry for it and claim of Iran’s interference in Iraq through Shiite militia? Why do they claim that Shiites are Safawis not Iraqis? Why do they cry for the elements of MKO while they’re in fact very Safawis in Iraq?

Is there anything except the fact that these remnants want to destroy Iraq with every possible means? They would do it even if they have to sell Iraq and Iraqis with the cheapest price and set fire to the public in order to revenge for their former master. These people tried to sell Iraq in their deals with Israelis, the US and some neighboring countries. Their last card could be the MKO. This would be their losing card not winning card but they consider it a boost to their sick bodies.

What’s the reason for these people, who are of Iraqi Sunnis, to cry for the MKO. This group includes people who plot for killing and beheading Iraqis.

Our government should always be vigilant about the dangers of MKO criminals, who were used by Saddam Hussein in killing our Kurd brothers during 1991 uprising. These traitors were armed to the teeth, used modern weapons, had enough experience to run the war, agents of Estekhbarat monitored their training and their weapons and their ties with the former regime was complex and strong; I’m sure that they already have cooperation with terrorist groups in Iraq. They’re being supported by the people who call themselves”the enemies of Safawis”.

This group should be dealt with cautiously. It should be noted that if their weapons were transferred to terrorists like Dulaimi and Zari, a disaster would happen to Iraq and Shiites in particular.

MKO’s Role in Saddam Massacres Should be Exposed

The court of former Iraqi regime’s crimes, now being held without the presence of Saddam Hussein, exposes important issues one of which is the decision of former Iraqi dictator to exterminate the Kurds with all possible means.

In the court, it was revealed that the order for massacring the Kurds by chemical weapons was issued personally by Saddam Hussein and suggested by Ali Hassan Al-Majid and consequently criminal officials of former regime committed the crimes in Halabja.

Meanwhile, what are very important are Chemical Ali’s comments on using the MKO for pursuing and targeting the Kurds (even inside Iran).

Earlier also, with the exposure of Rajavi’s secret talks with then the head of Iraqi Intelligence Service lieutenant general Taher, in which MKO forces’ participation in killing the Kurds was praised on behalf of Saddam, the role of the group in massacring the Kurds had been revealed.

In addition to the issue of MKO’s role in killing the Kurds- which has been proved with a lot of documents- what’s new in Chemical Ali’s comments and reveals new facts on MKO-Saddam ties, is the reality that this group acted as a private army for Saddam Hussein and that Iraqi officials considered the roles of the MKO when planning.

In this regard, Chemical Ali clarifies that MKO forces were tasked with pursuing and targeting the Kurds inside Iran.

The new government of Iraq and those in charge of holding the court should expose more of documents on cooperation between the MKO and Saddam Hussein in order to illuminate the public opinion and prevent distortion of historical facts by the leaders of the group.

By clarifying the dimensions of such crimes the efforts of MKO leaders to seek refuge in Iraq will fail and the main reasons of their presence in the country will be determined.

The statement of Nejat Society relating the execution of former Iraqi dictator

The statement of Nejat Society relating the execution of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein

There were scenes of jubilations among the people of the world, particularly the two great nations of Iran and Iraq; following the news of the execution of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein was broke to them this morning.

It is worth mentioning that Saddam Hussein or Iraq was known as the only state supporter of Mojahedin-é Khalq Organisation (MKO), and for nearly two decades the Organisation enjoyed his full financial and logistical backing in that country. The truth is that Saddam Hussein the former dictator of Iraq and Mas’ud Rajavi the leader of MKO committed many crimes in a strategic collusion against the people of Iran as well as the people of Iraq. MKO attempted many terrorist activities inside Iran in big cities against ordinary innocent citizens using the arms, intelligence and training provided by the Iraqi Ba’th regime; and in return MKO participated along the Iraqi armed forces to suppress the Shiite Moslems in the south and the Kurds in the north of the country.

Obviously one cannot make a great distinction between the misdeeds of Saddam Hussein with those of the MKO since they were much closed allies for many years. Saddam and Rajavi were like two blood brothers whom the first is captured and executed and the second is escapee and in hiding. In the video recordings of discussions between Rajavi and Iraqi security and intelligence officials found after the fall of Saddam Hussein, Rajavi clearly defines his relationship beyond a normal political connection for mutual strategic interests and calls it an ideological bond between the two of them.

The overwhelming general jubilations after the execution of the dictator, especially amongst our fellow countrymen who have many scars from this dictator on their bodies, are quite righteous and understandable. We too believe that executing him was the least one could do to cure the wounds on the hearts of thousands of victims who have been suffered due to his actions. But on the other hand many important issues were not even mentioned during the trial of Saddam Hussein never mind being dealt with. Although the execution of the dictator of the century was a right thing to do but a higher right was neglected, and that dealing with the whole truth and reality of his long reign in Iraq.

Apparently they want to finish everything off by just executing one man. In the process of the trial it was not clear who were the supporters and backers of Saddam Hussein and how he enjoyed such supports and who used the Iraqi national sources to fulfil their interests. The closed cooperation of MKO and Saddam Hussein against the nations of Iran and Iraq which could easily be proved should be sorted out in an international court of justice.

In our opinion, there should have been no rush to eliminate Saddam Hussein and if he was kept alive longer, many behind the scene affairs would have been revealed. A dictator is never a dictator by his own. He definitely has many internal and international aides and sponsors who keep him in power. Who are these people and where are they now?

It is also interesting to notice that two groups were disappointed with the execution of Saddam Hussein and remained completely silent. First were the associates of Iraqi Ba’th Party and the second were the leaders of MKO. Anyway Saddam Hussein who did not even have mercy on his own relatives and friends, kept and backed MKO in his country since they could be well used to suppress the people of Iraq and make terrorist attempts inside Iran.

Adnan Al-Dulaimi, The Master of Civil Wars

When Zarqawi, Al-Qaeda’s number one in Iraq, was killed Iraqi security forces found the mobile phone number of Adnan Al-Dulaimi, Tareq Al-Hashemi and Hares Al-Zari at the site. Mowafq Al-Rubaii, Iraqi security advisor, announced at that time that the government had found precious documents. However, the Iraqi government was pressed by Americans not to pursue the issue. Some Iraqi official preferred not to go on with the case in order to keep their posts.

Also, a while ago, US forces entered Dulaimi’s house and found 8 bombed cars, a workshop equipped with devices for planting explosives and also fake ID cards. On the other hand, Dulaimi’s grandson admitted that their targets belonged to Shiites including regions such as Al-Jahad, Al-Hurriah and Al-Aamel. On 26.9.2006, Dulaimi’s personal bodyguard, Khazir Farhan, who was closely cooperating with Al-Qaeda revealed the suicide bombings with explosive belts in Al-Khazra district.

Dulaimi’s comments on supporting the terrorist MKO, which has been involved in killing Iraqis during Shaabaniah uprising in 1991, prove that accusations on his support for terrorism are true.

Dulaimi had claimed that Iraqi Shiites who accuse the MKO of terrorism, are in fact Iranians.

He said: "MKO, based in Iraq, is a political group and is not terrorist group in any way. According to the laws of Iraq, MKO’s rights should be respected and Iraq’s regulations should protect them. We hope Iraqi officials understand this. I ask God Almighty to help us in our support for the guests of Iraq. Our moral values force us to support them. We should protect them and I don’t believe that they have negative impact on Iraq’s situation."

Iraqis Welcome Revelations on MKO

Finally, the Iraqi government announced that it has "undeniable evidence proving that the MKO trains terrorists and takes part directly in terrorist attacks against Iraqi people".

Like all Iraqis, I also wonder why the issue had not been revealed before.

Earlier, we had warned the government on the activities of this wretched terrorist organization. In this regard, please look at part of my article on 10.28.2006 that was published by several Iraqi websites.

In that article, I warned the government on its silence about the crimes and illegal activities of this organization:

"I’m surprised because the Iraqi Governing Council ordered the expulsion of this organization from Iraq but it has not been executed. Here, we remind the government of Iraq that they should execute the order and expel the hypocrites from out country. The elements of this group support the remnants of Saddam’s ousted regime and back them militarily and logistically; MKO trains them how to use different kinds of weapons. The government should expel them from Dyalah".

Now the government has emphasized that it is going to act against the MKO. Although too late, it should be appreciated. In this regard, we warn the government on the suspicious activities of Adnan al-Dulaimi and his son. He is the leader of terrorists. He should be arrested and tried.

The Bare Facts vs. the Elusive Claims

Of the important news of the past weak was the announced death verdict against the Iraqi ousted dictator. Making Iraqi people yell jubilant cries, the sentence at the same time perturbed the remnants of Saddam’s devotees and those who had secured a collective strategic alliance with him. The accomplices who during the past three years of his fall preferred to remain silent over the Baath Party and whom they persisted to respect not less than president.

The deliberate silence occurs at a time when MKO wrestle with the encountered predicaments in Iraq by taking advantage of the internal chaos and the deepened rift between the opponent factions and al-Maliki’s government. Mojahedin’s propaganda machine has never stopped dispersing the threats that democracy in Iraq is unattainable unless through the support of Mojahedin as it was advertised through the statement issued by 25 Sheikhs of the Dialy province. Enticing a few local papers, Mojahedin promulgated to have summoned the support of 5,200,000 Iraqi people and proceeded to proclaim to have bolstered supporters in some provinces. But Mojahedin’s silence, in contrast to peoples unanimous approval, on Saddam’s trial and death sentence has reached a juncture where their contradictory attitudes surface.

People will never forget Saddam’s crimes and the heavy price they have paid for his tyrannical rule although not all his crimes done against people can possibly be brought before the tribunal. These untried crimes might sink into the historical oblivion but his accomplices, especially Mojahedin, can be pursued to unveil facts on genocidal cases like that of the Iraqi Kurds and Shiits. The absence of Massoud Rajavi at the moment might fill Mojahedin with the induced forlorn hope of having escaped the trial and that Saddam’s announced sentence means the termination of further inquiry. However, the proven evidences of collaboration refute possibility of escape from the justice. Moreover, the existing challenge between people and the coalition forces is partly because of the latter’s support of Saddam accomplices.

The coalition forces, well aware of Mojahedin’s close collaboration with Saddam, should at least make it clear that how sincere are Mojahedin in their claims of standing by the people. Those who strive to justify Mojahedin’s stay in Iraq according to international conventions have to acknowledge on whose side were Mojahedin through their past two decades’ presence in Iraq. Nothing can conceal the broad fact of Mojahedin’s being the most favorite mercenaries of Saddam, who roamed on Iraqi soil fully armed while the oppressed people were under the hideous suppression of the dictator. What about many instances of Mojahedin’s meetings with Saddam’s high officials where they stressed their entwined destiny. The mind of the world is not devoid of the pictures of Rajavi shaking hands with Saddam and sharing hugs and kisses as if two brothers. The Iraqi people are clear-sighted enough to distinguish between the bare facts and the elusive claims.

Really, with so many evidences persisting, who dares to pass over them? Do they think that people have a weak mind as they do? What hands and for what reasons are in attempt of covering up Saddam’s crimes? The future might tell the hitherto untold.

Rumsfeld-Wolfowitz and MKO Against Iraqis

Mojahedin-e Khalq organization was established in Iran when Shah was in power. During that time, the group conducted a number of bombings and killed Iranians and even American citizens. After the revolution, it continued the killings and sabotage operations so that its lead had to flee to France. However, most of the supporters and members of the group chose Iraq as their safe shelter when the ousted Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein was in power. Baathist regime provided the group with training camps, light and heavy weapons, tanks, and …. Iraqi army and the Republican Guard trained MKO members, the number of whom increased to 3000. MKO members acted as Special Forces for Saddam security services. During the uprising of Sha’banieh, after Kuwait had been freed from occupation of Saddam in 1991, teams of terrorist MKO started killing civilian Iraqis in northern, central and southern Iraq. With the assistance of Republican Guard and after killing a lot of Kurds and Shiites and others in Iraq, the MKO could suppress the uprising.

Following the fall of dictatorial regime in 2003, coalition forces surrounded the MKO and forced them to give up their arms but allowed them to stay in their camp. Several MKO members in Iraq left the country to get to a European nation but many others remained in MKO camps. Some others started serving remnants of Baath party and were actually welcomed by Baathists who considered them as the guests of Saddam.

It’s surprising that so far, no one of new Iraqi governments has talked about punishing the criminals of Mojahedin-e Khalq, who were directly involved in killing hundreds of Iraqi civilians in 1991.

We ask Excellencies Dr. Jalal Talabani and Mr. Nuri al-Maliki, as well as the head of the parliament and all Iraqi officials, to dismantle the camp of Mojahedin-e Khalq in Iraq and transfer them to a third country.

When the constitution clearly bans any activity against Islamic and Arabic countries, Iraq and even coalition forces will benefit from expulsion of the MKO.

The presence of MKO in Iraq is a clear mistake, planned by Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz.

No Question on MKO’s Extradition to Iran

60 MKO supporters, having gathered before the UNHCR building in Geneva for 100 days, revealed that Iraqi officials have announced that the members of terrorist MKO in Camp Ashraf can stay in Iraq only until the end of this year (45 days from now) and that after this date they should leave Iraq.

British supporters of the MKO, the major assets for the group after the fall of Saddam Hussein whose efforts to preserve Saddam’s mercenaries have all failied, met the representatives of UNHCR and Red Cross on November 14 and asked for recognition of MKO members as refugees in Iraq. It seems that there has been no change in the stance of these two international organizations toward the MKO. They have declared that Iraqi government should decide about the issue.

Iraqi government has examined the legal aspects of the issue and it has possibly taken advantage of the views of these two international organizations as well as the US in its decision.

The whole positions by the Iraqi government and these two international organizations show that there’s a consensus on expulsion of MKO and that’s why Mohammed Mohaddessin, the spokesman for this terrorist group in Europe, has said that MKO members will be executed in the case they are extradited to Iran!

This is also an old excuse, which can’t help the group anymore. Europeans have stopped granting asylum to those who claim there’s security concerns in Iran; some European countries have even decided to expel those who could get refugee status by such claims.

Mohaddessin’s claims, on the other hand, indicate that there’s no other option for MKO except extraditing them to Iran.

A letter to the President of Iraq

Dear Mr. Jalal Talebani, Distinguished president of Iraq Though our organization are opposed to the death penalty, we still cannot hide our relief over the fact that Saddam Hussein, the former dictator of Iraq after 30 years of campaign of terror have finally been brought to justice and convicted of his crimes. Saddam Hussein has been convicted to death for the murder of 148 citizens of Dujail, a violent retaliation against a failed assassination attempt on 8 July in 1982. Currently he is being trialed in the genocide committed against the Kurds in the Anfal campaign. During the chemical bombing of the city of Halabje, more then 5000 men, women and children were killed. Mr. President, you know better then anyone that in 1991, Saddam Hussein with the help of his private army the Mojahedin-e Khalq of Iran, was part of the oppression of the Kurds. In this act of murder tens of innocent Kurdish people were killed. The Mojahedin army conducted their attack on the Kurdish towns of Klar, toz khormatooz, soleiman beik, kefri and jalola, and went on a mission to kill and drive the Kurds out. “ A number of our current members were at the time members of the Mojahedin army and witnessed these atrocities close hand and for this reason they decided to leave this terrorist and murderous organization. “ Our organization has been actively working to expose this horrendous crime and bring these events unto the public arena since 1993. Our appeal to the government of Iraq is if possible: 1. Adding the suppression of the Kurds during 1990 to Saddam Husseins current criminal charges 2. And that the leaders of Mojahedin-e Khalq, Massoud and Maryam Rajavi should also be brought under these charges and prosecuted as war criminals Our members who are for the most part European citizens are willing and able to give witness in documenting and subsequent trial of these men. With the outmost respect Karim Haghi Moni Iran Peyvand association This letter is also passed along to these following Mr. Nouri al-Maliki, Prime minister of Iraq Judiciary of Iraq The Iraqi parliament Iran Peyvand Association, November 13, 2006

Iraq will not tolerate terrorist Mojahedin Khalq

LONDON, September 24 (IranMania) – Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri Al-Maliki said that from the beginning Iran accepted the new situation in Iraq and established political ties with it, and “this is laudable“.

In an interview with the international Jaam-e Jam TV Network, Maliki added that these are important steps and Iraqi politicians must praise Iran’s standpoint, because these steps can help establish strong and sound bilateral bonds, IRNA reported.

Commenting on the presence of the members of the banned Mujahideen Khalq Organization (MKO) in Iraq, he said, “The Prime Minister’s office has notified the terrorist group to leave Iraq within six months. We will not permit them to stay in Iraq after this period and international institutions are responsible for their prolonged stay. MKO cooperated with the former Iraqi regime and is the accomplice of terrorists. They do not have a good image in Iraq and we do not want a group in our country which is opposed to our good neighbor.“

With regard to Iraq’s insecurity, he said, “Terrorists in Iraq are followers of the former Baathist and extremist forces, and are backed by foreign elements.“

He stressed that the Iraqi government has devised plans and tactics for confronting the terrorists.

“We have been successful to an extent. Restoring security to Iraq paves the ground for economic development and political reforms,“ he said.

Maliki emphasized that terrorists know no limits and believe in no religions.

In relation to Saddam’s trial, Maliki said, “This is being followed up by the Iraqi judiciary and nobody has the right to interfere in this issue.“
