Maryam Rajavi

Rajavi representes no one

After months of excruciatingly nit picking and slow negotiations to finally reach an agreement to peacefully and securely move the residents of Camp Ashraf to another safe facility in which their individual claims for refugee status and relocation can be worked out, Rajavi has (inevitably) come up with yet more excuses and stalling tactics to prevent any movement of residents from the camp.

Rajavi has been sidelined because neither she nor her husband, MEK leader Massoud Rajavi, actually represent the interests of the residents and are only interested in maintaining their cultist control over the camp’s residents. Moving the residents is the first step to these individuals regaining their rightful freedoms.

Because of this Rajavi is still trying to delay the inevitable by creating all kinds of outlandish excuses.[..]

Maryam Rajavi: Iranian Spring or Ashrafi Winter

In order to get relieved of the pressure imposed on the Mujahedin Khalq Organization; because of its being listed as a terrorist group by the US and the Iraqi determination to shutdown their Maryam Rajavi: Iranian Spring or Ashrafi Winter base camp Ashraf in Iraq, these days Maryam Rajavi is talking nonsense, particularly in her recent interview with the Swiss Television, TSR she continues to repeat her previous delirious words.

Misusing the recent atmosphere ruling the Middle East, she presents herself as the representative of the Iranian people!!! Introducing her cult as the alternative of the Islamic Republic, she speaks of certainty of Iranian spring!

However, it’s been widely broadcasted that camp Ashraf will be soon shutdown by the Iraqi government based on its legal decision and all repetitive claim by Maryam Rajavi about Iranian spring is a resort to deviate the public opinion from the case of MKO left on the table.

She claims that “Camp Ashraf and its residents” are “ the center of gravity for the aspiration of the Iranian people”(!!!) while, the majority of members imprisoned in Ashraf are thinking of a plan to escape ,according to the reports and revelations made by recently defected members. Also, international bodies and Iraqi government are trying to find a solution to help remove camp Ashraf from Iraqi territory. Thus the MKO’s entire activities focus on this issue.

A large part of her interview was about the debate on the terrorist designation of the MKO and the shutdown of Camp Ashraf. So, how can Camp Ashraf – a container of 3000 terrorist designated people – be “the center of gravity for the aspirations of the Iranian people”?!!

The leaders of the cult of Rajavi who were armed by Saddam Hussein , fought for him for years and killed Iraqis and their own Iranian country-men, used to consider Camp Ashraf the strategic center of struggle for the world.

Today, the MKO leader–disarmed, humiliated and in decline – claims that Ashraf is “the center of hope, strength and perseverance for the Iranian people and also the people of Middle East.”(!!!)

In fact, Maryam Rajavi speaks of Iranian spring while 3000 hostages of the organization are held under the mind control system by herself and her disappeared husband. The majority of these people suffer various mental and physical diseases. Some of them committed suicide to release themselves from such pressure imposed by the cult system. The rest are waiting for a way out of this long winter dominating Camp Ashraf in order that they can start a new life.

Interview with Maryam Rajavi

A few years ago, one of the producers of CBS’s 60 Minutes asked me to arrange for the networks interview with Maryam Rajavi, a leader of Iran’s Mujahidin Khalq Organization (MKO). I told him then that I thought it was not possible to do this, to which he replied, “If the interview is going to be with a non-Iranian network, the response will certainly be different.”

I then recruited the assistance of a person affiliated with the MKO. A few days later he provided me with an email address to contact. When I did, I was given a telephone number to contact, which in all honesty made me feel embarrassed for my initial assumption which was based on hear say. Subsequent events however proved me right.

When I made the first call, I was given another telephone number to call. This was repeated several times in the course of a few months that followed, until the American producer called me and said the issue was over and that there was no need to follow-up.

I concluded that 60 Minutes must have decided to call off the pursuit because of how long it had taken to arrange for the interview. He surprised me when he said that a representative of the MKO had made arrangements with the program’s senior producer and had made a condition for the interview and had written up the questions to be asked….

This was pathetic, something that still continues.

These days, as media reports on MKO’s efforts to be delisted from the US State Department’s terrorist list, reactions and responses have been published too which speak of a contradiction of this possibility with supporting the Iranian drive and movement for freedom and rights. So as a journalist, I once again see it as my duty to request for an interview with Maryam Rajavi to get responses to some basic questions. Here are some:

• In the first years of the 1979 revolution, young members of the MKO had instructions not to engage with members and affiliates of other political groups. Was this true and is there a similar policy today?

• If delisted, does the MKO plan to change its structure and make it similar to other political organizations and be subject to the regulations governing such parties?

• Does the MKO see itself responsible to respond to questions such as its cooperation with Saddam Hossein in attacking and invading Iran?

• Under what strategy and goal were inexperienced youth asked to respond to the Mersad Operation inside Iran?

• Is internal criticism allowed within MKO and can it be reflected outside the organization?

• Is it true that some MKO members have left the organization on the basis of such instructions by the group to take up the responsibility of attacking other opponents of the Islamic republic?

• On what perspective does the MKO pursue the policy of attacking Khatami (carried out since 1997) and Mousavi and Karoubi (since 2009) while at the same time claiming to be supporting the Green Movement?

And finally,

• From where does the belief “Stay away from the Mujahidin, they are dangerous” come? Is there a consequence on criticizing the MKO? Even asking questions?

As a journalist, I would like to have answers to these questions. Others however tell me otherwise.

– Don’t write, they are dangerous. Instead of a response, you and your family will be attacked with insults. You will be presented as an agent.

They tell me:

– When a young web blogger wrote a few lines in criticism of Mrs. Rajavi, he was attacked in such a manner that his mother, herself a former member of the MKO in Tehran, warned him to stay away from the group as its members were “notorious.”

There is more they tell me.

Yet, I have written my questions to Mrs. Rajavi to see whether we all change in time or …

Maryam Rajavi threatens to massacre the hostages at Camp Ashraf

Addressing a symposium of like-minded guests in the European Parliament on May 25, Maryam Rajavi, second-in-command of the Mojahedin-e Khalq cult, issued a stark threat to humanitarian agencies and the Government of Iraq.

What Rajavi is really threatening is that the MEK leaders will massacre their own people if any external agency should attempt to interfere with the MEK’s totalitarian control over the camp’s residents.

"Any forced displacement in Iraq would be a prelude to a massacre of the inhabitants of Ashraf. And I warn the international community and the United States, they would be responsible for the consequences," said Maryam Rajavi.

Rajavi’s threat carefully omits to identify who will perform this massacre. By referring to the clashes of April 8, when MEK Special Forces violently resisted a pre-agreed mission by the Iraqi army to legally reclaim land from the north of the camp, she deliberately implies that the Iraqi army would “massacre” the residents.

This is certainly not the case however. What Rajavi is really threatening is that the MEK leaders will massacre their own people if any external agency should attempt to interfere with the MEK’s totalitarian control over the camp’s residents.

Her real message is that the residents of Camp Ashraf are being held as hostages and the MEK leaders will kill them if anyone tries to rescue them.

It must be understood that the threat is real. The MEK leaders Massoud and Maryam Rajavi have a history of shedding the blood of ordinary MEK members for political gain. In 2003 two MEK members died in Paris and London after setting themselves on fire to satisfy the needs of the cult. MEK leader Massoud Rajavi has already threatened a Jonestown-like mass suicide to ward off any attempt to close Camp Ashraf.

Rajavi’s threat comes only days after the cult’s Western backers sent out a flurry of contradictory messages about the future of the camp’s residents. Clearly, MEK supporter Struan Stevenson was not party to the MEK’s latest tactic when he suggested the group could simply be moved to Europe. It is only the cult leaders who can order these killings.

Maryam Rajavi

Victimizing people; the utmost generosity of Rajavi

Based on the facts mentioned, the necessity of the dissolution of Ashraf Camp as a cultic structure which imposes inhuman features upon its members becomes obvious.

Baghdad- Association for Defending Victims of Terrorism: why the doors of Ashraf Camp have never been opened for the families of the victims? Why the MKO members like some captives, have been denied the life out of the camp? In other word, what are the implications of such great efforts for keeping the members inside the camp? In fact the question is that for which reason Rajavi keeps her members in a base which she calls it a bloodbath?

Without any effort to take the members out of this so-called bloodbath, Rajavi constantly corresponds with American officials and other western states to protest against the legal Iraqi government. She does not refer to the real will of the Iraqi people, parties and political wings which call for their expulsion. In this regard she commits various inhuman crimes for gaining advantages and supports.

MKO uses women as a defensive shield for attracting the attention and support of the human rights governments and organizations. The self-immolations are an indication of the capability of the cult in training people who can commit any crime even against themselves. Rajavi’s ransom for survival of Ashraf is the lives of MKO members.

Therefore we have to find the reasons of the MKO leaders for preserving Ashraf in the following issues; the MKO finds its existence in the application of different techniques like suppression of suspicion and resistance through which it can give a new sense of attachment. It is an issue which frequently comes along with suppressing common emotional human senses and feelings. In this regard, removing the non-cultic ideas by repeating some slogans or limited phrases, the cult leaders try to deny the previous beliefs and establish some new values in which the cult is the center and every instrument for attaining the defined goals is legitimate. Setting up the principles of a cult, any sense of personal judgment or valuation, individual decision or thinking are all denied and blind obedience is being developed between members. Wearing uniforms, confessing the internal drawbacks or any sense of doubt, isolation from the outside world, families and friends, exaggerating the faults and sins… are all among the techniques that cults resort for protecting their nature.

For the same reason the terrorist group of MKO keeps its members in a socially and mentally isolated environment in order to take the members abilities to think and make decisions. Providing such a behavioral ground leads to suicides. Self-immolation is the most common way of suicide in MKO. One of the examples of the application of this technique is the self-immolations of 2003 in which a number of MKO members set themselves on fire in protest to the arrest of Maryam Rajavi. Threatening to suicide also works as a tool in MKO negotiations with other sides.

Based on what mentioned, the necessity for dissolution of Ashraf Camp as a cultic structure which imposes inhuman features upon its members, becomes obvious. Then the best efforts should be made in order to return back these members to the bosom of the family, relatives and society.

Maryam Rajavi’s background and experience

While I was browsing Maryam Rajavi’s website, which was totally including lie, treason and anti-nation items, I came across a question :”who is Maryam Rajavi?”

The answer included a bunch of lies. They portraited Maryam Rajavi as a saint, the best woman in the whole world! What was the truth? Maryam Rajavi’s background and experience as an MKO member refered to that of her sister Narges Qajar Azdanlou who according to the journal Partow Iran, swallowed a cyanide capsule following her clash with the Shah’s agents a few years before the Islamic revolution. Maryam Azdanlou (Rajavi) was lucky to enjoy the advantages of a revolutionary leader who hoisted the flag of her so-called resistance in order to break a new record of massacre of generations.

She dedicated her personal, emotional life to make female members barren and to sacrifice male members for The Cult of Rajavi.

Launching her ideological revolution in the late 20th century, Maryam Rajavi took her cult to the darkest days of middle ages. She suppressed any freedom not only in Ashraf prisons but also in members’ family and personal life.

Maryam Rajavi points the sharp edge of her cruelty blade toward women in Camp Ashraf. In order to maintain her cult, she has no way except depriving people from their freedom. She has even theorized the issue claiming that the human’s substance was originated in evil and corruption so people’s massacre would be a blessing for them. She succeeded to inject this disappointment to her cult members.

Maryam Rajavi’s historical character signifies a woman who is completely different from ordinary women. She is incredibly a massacre lover who makes women barren to remove the least hope for future family life in their minds.

When in 2003 she was arrested by French Police, she was imprisoned for 15 days but she was never treated badly or tortured but her supporters called her as Iranian Jean d’arc.
Jean d’arch was a girl who fought for the freedom and independence of her nation. She tolerated torture and imprisonment. How can Maryam Rajavi be compared with Jean d’arc? What part of her life is similar to that of Jean d’arc?

Rajavi’s sympathizers also compare her with Martin Luther King whose acts can never be compared with Maryam Rajavi’s crimes. The followings are some of her criminal acts:
Maryam Rajavi issues orders to physically remove certain members based on faked reasons.

Maryam Rajavi forbids the members captured in Camp Ashraf from visiting their families. She verbally abuses the families who are wiling to visit their children.
Maryam Rajavi forces the captured members of Ashraf to attend her TV shows in order to swear at their families.

Following her so-called ideological revolution, Maryam Rajavi sent dissident members to Abu Qoraib prison, Iraq. She launched a massacre, she brainwashed teenagers in order to be mobilized to Iran to launch terrorist operations. She manipulated members’ minds in order to commit self-immolation in case the organization is in need.
She ordered her removal teams to abandon the dissident members on mine fields to be killed; otherwise they had to be shot.

She launched a human disaster in Camp Ashraf on July 28th when a number of members were caused to be killed.

Today Maryam Rajavi is extremely happy with new sanctions imposed on Iranian nation. She is proud of her treasons against her fellow men.

Today she sheds crocodile tears for families of political prisoners in Iran but she doesn’t let the families who have been waiting at Ashraf gates for four months, visit their beloved ones.

To exaggerate the number of her sympathizers, she hires innocent Afghan, Pakistani … refugees to attend MKO meetings to raise the number of participants. She orders her followers to molest defectors of her cult because she is terrified of their enlightening denunciation.

After the collapse of her former land lord Saddam Hussein, Maryam Rajavi fled to France to kiss the feet of her new western supporters.

MKO: People’s Friends or Foes

MKO’s terrorist cult published the news of Maryam Rajavi’s trip to Germany. Their website wrote:

On Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010 Maryam Rajavi, president of NCR visits German MPs in the parliament. In its news report the website said: in a meeting held by a number of German parliamentarians, Maryam Rajavi asked them to work for change in EU’s policy towards Iran and to defend Ashraf …

Maryam Rajavi’s trip to Germany indicates Europeans double standards towards terrorist and violent groups. They endanger the security of their own countries by playing an illogic game with such groups. According to political principals and EU laws, any group or entity with a background of terrorist, violent acts against civilians should be boycotted for much political financial or spiritual support. However, the public opinion notice Mrs. Rajavi, the leader of one of The self-assigned president of NCR encourages Western powers to stop seeking diplomatic solutions and negotiations with Iran the most horrifying violent groups, traveling in Europe, visiting politic men of the so-called developed democratic countries, defending the activities and violent strategy of her cult of personality.

She asked German authorities to support her terrorist destructive cult and criticized them because they had already failed to support her group.

European politic men may not have enough information on the three-decade activities of MKO cult as an armed group that launched large-scale violent attacks against innocent civilians and assassinated thousands of people due to its ill-minded hatred towards humanity.

German authorities who met with Maryam Rajavi might have had no knowledge of MKO’s spying and mercenary role for Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein as a strategic ally for the most inhuman regime through the history.

A question is, how can Maryam Rajavi claim to be a patriotic Iranian while she takes such a position against her own nation? While she speaks of weakening Iranian power just like the designer of Imperialism Henry Kissinger?!

Kissinger was the one who planned the massacre of people of Vietnam. According to a BBC report, he remarks on the west policy towards Iran:”You should not let Iran to fulfill its dream for the establishment of its empire in the region.” He does not respond to those who asked him to apologize for the atrocities he committed in Vietnam.

Maryam Rajavi calls the world to impose more sanctions against Iran … . The self-assigned president of NCR encourages Western powers to stop seeking diplomatic solutions and negotiations with Iran, instead she persuades them to impose more punishments against Iran.

The experienced American politic man Henry Kissinger, in his interview with German Eshpigel news agency, confessed that “the benefits to America and the West no more necessitate them to keep Iran’s sovereignty on its territory. A disintegrated Iran is better than a powerful, great Iran.”

The boundaries between illusion and reality should be enlightened for Mrs. Rajavi. The leaders of Mujahedin Khalq should make it clear if they are friends or foes of Iranian people.

Maryam Rajavi arranged clandestine travel to Finland

Rohi blog today exposed that Maryam Rajavi, head of the terrorist Mojahedin Khalq Organisation (formerly known as Saddam Private Army) has clandestinely travelled to Finland to appear in a show pretending to be the head of the Iranian opposition movement. [the full report (Persian)]

Maryam Rajavi accompanied by paid agents of the terrorist cult has booked a room from Finlandia Hall (booked under the name of Soraya Stern).

It is worth mentioning that two of Rajavi’s henchmen were arrested in Finland last year when they were pursuing terrorist activities in Finland.

The blog has expanded on this news, exposing the true face of Maryam Rajavi and the crimes against humanity and war crimes committed by the MKO cult leaders.

It is widely believed that these clandestine trips to remote countries like Finland serve as cover for meetings between Rajavi and the CIA.

The Mask Maryam Rajavi wears

On February 23, official websites of the terrorist Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO/MEK/PMOI) announced that their she-guru Maryam Rajavi “met with officials and members of European Parliament”. “The meeting was organized in the run up to the International Day of Women” Mrs. Rajavi if you are sincere in your claims , then the first step would be to agree with the members’ right, the most basic right, including the right to visit their beloved ones easily according to the group’s sites where Maryam Rajavi’s so-called speech was also published.

Under the cover of an elegant muslim Iranian woman, she claims to be concerned over what she calls “tragic suppression of women by the regime”. Then she introduces her cult of personality as an example of “women’s participation in leadership positions which supplies the dynamic and vitality for this resistance’s perseverance and progress”. She speaks of the role of her female members as “a guarantor for lasting democracy and development in tomorrow‘s Iran”

She also makes too much fanfare about “forced veiling in Iran and the inability of Islamic Republic to reform.”She ridiculously emphasizes that “let any woman choose what to wear and what not to wear”!

Yes, Mrs. Rajavi,
This is the minimum freedom for Iranian women as human beings. How can you guarantee lasting democracy in Iran while your cult members are all forced to wear scarves and military uniforms? Yes, let them choose what to wear and what not to wear. No Ashraf female member is allowed to wear the least casual clothes. They are never allowed to use cosmetics. If as you claimed, you are really inspired by the genuine Islam why are the members of your cult never allowed to decide for their eating time, their clothing, their sleeping time, their work schedule and any small choice they can have in their personal life?

Maryam Rajavi claims that women are suppressed for their appearance and for the manner they walk or talk. She might have forgotten that her cult members are not allowed to talk to their peers let alone talking to their opposite-sex comerades. In Camp Ashraf, even the time women can use eating place, gas station … are different from those of male members.

Mrs. Rajavi,
We say that if you are sincere in your claims for people’s freedom, then the first step would be to agree with the members’ right, the most basic right, including the right to choose their own clothing, to visit their beloved ones easily, to live among their family members especially their children and spouses, to get married and have children.

In Maryam Rajavi’s destructive cult the most fundamental human rights are denied, according to former members and numerous reports by journalists. Following the so-called ideological revolutions in the terrorist cult of MKO, all couples were forced to divorce even those who had once been forced to marry a comrade whom the leaders had ordered to marry.

Then in 1991, under the pretext of the Gulf War I all children were separated from their parents. Camp Ashraf was removed of children who were sent to Europe in order to be abused for the group’s propagandistic and fundraising activities.

In a terrorist destructive cult where any family life, emotion, love and individuality are forbidden, Maryam Rajavi’s claims for democracy and women’s freedom sound comic. For those who are informed of human right violations committed by MKO leaders, Maryam Rajavi’s speech in Europe is just like a hilarious comedy!

She speaks of complete equality in social, cultural and economic rights between women and men. It is all too much for Mrs. Rajavi while she is not able to guarantee the least right of living in a normal society with normal regulations and atmosphere.

Doubtlessly, Mrs. Rajavi’s few sympathizers in European Parliament including Mr. Alejo Videl – Quadras, EP Vice President and Edit Bauer of the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality, should do some effort to increase their knowledge about the cult of Rajavi in order that they would not be tricked by Rajavi’s gang. They might not have considered the speeches of Mrs. Nasrin Ebrahimi (who defected from MKO destructive cult in 2008 used to live in Camp Ashraf for about thirteen years and witnessed a lot of terrifying facts about the cult) at the European Parliament on September ninth 2008 when she said:”the women in MEK are not only barred from marrying but they are forced to work for long hours, do so hard manual jobs under the hot sun every day that they no more look good, this way they do not think they can attract a man…” .

The Rajavi’s heighten their sabotage to the extreme extent when they try to cut female members of their cult from their only source of hope. ”they try to kill any hope in heart of women of Ashraf by removing their womb through a hysterectomy surgery which is operated under various pretexts. So far ten percent of Ashraf women have sustained such an operation” Nasrin Ebrahimi added. Is this the women right Maryam Rajavi promises to offer the Iranian women?

She proposes her only option for her alleged democratic change in Iran while she lacks the ability to find a solution to the problematic declining situation her group is stuck in. today the only option for victimized members of Rajavi’s cult is the dissolution of her cult in order to offer the captured members an opportunity to get released from the suffocating cult of MKO and to decide for their own fate with their own free will.

Maryam Rajavi – the real message following the Haiti disaster

Maryam Rajavi, number one wife of cult leader Massoud Rajavi, who escaped from Iraq in 2003 just before the allied invasion, issued a statement from her residence in Auvers-sur-Oise today. Rajavi offered her condolences to the people of Haiti.

On the surface one could assume that Rajavi is playing her role as the ‘president-elect of the new Iran’. A closer reading of this incongruous message will expose the real message Rajavi is passing to her followers.

A source inside the Mojahedin organisation’s headquarters in the affluent Paris suburb has reported that the earthquake in Haiti has been tagged as a fundraising opportunity.

In an Open Letter to British PM Gordon Brown, Massoud Khodabandeh of Leeds based MESC Ltd, warned that the MKO’s use of London as the base for its satellite and financial had cast doubt on the UK’s stance toward terrorism.

Now the MKO financial heads are being urged to use the Haiti disaster to fundraise for the group’s own use. In 1998 the Charity Commission closed the Iran Aid charity because it could not be proved that the funds were actually being used for the purpose for which they were raised.

Under the patronage of western supporters, the MKO’s bogus charity was immediately reinvented under other names – in particular those fundraising for Camp Ashraf in Iraq. Over the years Iran Aid had claimed to be fundraising for various disasters – earthquakes, floods, and war. None of the money reached these victims but was used to help fund the MKO’s violent activities against the Iranian nation.
