The MKO cult [MEK/PMOI] has a long record in terrorist activities, including the assassination of 12,000 Iranian citizens, seven American citizens, and tens of thousands of Iraqi nationals,”the association wrote in a letter to the Canadian government on Saturday. ..
“I don’t see any terrorist organization capable of continuing, unless somebody wants it. Somebody has got to want this terrorist organization [MKO/MEK/PMOI], somebody has got to finance it and somebody has got to arm it,” Khodabandeh said… When I say money laundering, I have been in it, I have seen it.
