Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

MEK May Remain on U.S. Terror List

WASHINGTON — State Department officials are preparing for a possible decision by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton to redesignate an Iranian opposition group as a terrorist Iran Group May Remain on U.S. Terror List organization, in part because of the group’s resistance to abandoning its camp in Iraq, two American officials said Wednesday.

The group, the Mujahedeen Khalq, or People’s Mujahedeen, has mounted a costly campaign to be removed from the terrorist list, enlisting an array of prominent American politicians and former military officers to press the case that the group abandoned violence years ago.

The two officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the matter involves litigation, said Mrs. Clinton had not made a decision yet. But they said the group’s refusal to complete a move from Camp Ashraf to the former site of Camp Liberty, near the Baghdad airport, may doom its bid.

Under a court ruling, Mrs. Clinton must make a decision on the terrorist listing before Oct. 1. While the group, also known as M.E.K., carried out bombings in Iran in the 1970s against the shah’s government and later against the Islamic government, causing the death of several Americans, by most accounts it has not engaged in terrorism in recent years.

Asked why the M.E.K.’s failure to move from Camp Ashraf was relevant to the terrorist designation, one official said that the group had long used the facility for paramilitary training. Though the group was disarmed after the American-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, he said, a refusal to move would raise questions about whether the group has truly changed its intentions.

A spokesman for the M.E.K. in Paris, Shahin Gobadi, said in a statement that linking the group’s cooperation in relocating and its designation as a terrorist group would be “illegal and illegitimate.” He said that to relist the group would be a “license” for Iraqi forces to “massacre” the group’s members in Iraq, and that the State Department would bear responsibility.

Under orders from the Iraqi government to vacate Camp Ashraf, which was given to the M.E.K. by Saddam Hussein, the group moved about 2,000 of the 3,200 residents to the new location to await a possible move as refugees to new countries. But the convoys stalled in May after M.E.K. leaders said conditions at Camp Liberty were inadequate.

The Iraqi government has close ties to Iran, which has complained about the presence of its sworn enemies at Camp Ashraf. A reported 47 M.E.K. members have been killed in previous clashes with Iraqi security forces, and both American and United Nations officials have urged the group to complete the move to avoid further violence.

On July 15, a 26-truck cargo convoy delivered air-conditioners, furniture, video games and other supplies from Camp Ashraf to Camp Liberty with the permission of the Iraqi authorities, a breakthrough that American officials hoped would persuade the M.E.K. to finish the transfer of the remaining 1,200 residents.

Instead, M.E.K. officials voiced new complaints about the conditions at Camp Liberty, which they described as a “prison,” and so far they have refused to resume the move. Dozens of members of Congress have written to Mrs. Clinton to express concern about the state of the camp, but American officials who have visited it report adequate conditions, including ample water and electricity and even a recent shipment of 200,000 cans of soda.

Mojahedin Khalq new scam to collect money in the west

Open letter to the European authorities

We are informed that Mojahedin khalq, aka, National Council of Resistance, aka PMOI,aka MEK has started a fund raising program claiming that the collected money would be spend on behalf of those people who were hurt in the recent earthquake in Iran. Sources report that MEK leadership has told its activists that it is an excellent opportunity to collect a large amount of money for the organization (MEK).

According to the information we have received, MEK cell leaders in most of European countries including UK, France, Netherlands, Sweden and also in North America are told to use any possible means in order to collect money.
Mojahedin Khalq new scam to collect money in the west
MEK activists are to approach Iranian communities as well as humanitarian organizations and individuals in western countries and try to raise funds for their claim. MEK members who are active in this program have learned not to introduce themselves as the group’s members and fake their real identity.

Hereby we would like to inform all organizations and individuals about the terrorist group`s intentions that collected funds by MEK is not to support any humanitarian cause but for supporting a terrorist organization and its money laundry activities.

MEK is a Foreign Terrorist Organization and is black listed by the US government. According to US law, any financial support to this group means supporting worldwide terrorism and is subject to charges.

We would like to ask all humanitarian organizations and individuals who are willing to support Iranian victims of earthquake to send their helps through known and verified sources such as the Red Cross. Also any suspicious people who try to collect money should be referred to law enforcement organizations.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

Syrian security forces arrest five MKO terrorists

Syrian government forces have reportedly arrested five members of the terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) along with 35 other gunmen as they were trying to sneak across the Syrian security forces arrest five MKO terrorists border into the crisis-hit Arab state.

A Syrian security official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the government forces arrested 40 terrorists on Monday as they attempted to enter Syria, Fars News Agency reported on Sunday.

The unnamed official added that five of the detainees were identified as MKO members following a full-scale investigation into the capture.

The detained MKO terrorists have confessed that the MKO is training insurgents on the Turkish soil near the border with Syria, while certain Arab and Western states are providing necessary support for their activities.

The report comes as Iraqi and Syrian security officials maintain that a large number of MKO members have entered Syria over the past few days.

The officials have also warned against MKO’s training of terrorists in Turkey as well as the semi-autonomous Kurdistan region in northern Iraq.

Director of Iran’s Habilian Association Seyyed Mohammad Javad Hasheminejad had announced on May 28 that the MKO is preparing to launch a massive terrorist operation in Syria.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since mid-March 2011, with many people, including large number of security forces, killed in the turmoil.

While the West and the Syrian opposition accuse the government of the killings, Damascus blames outlaws, saboteurs and insurgents for the unrest, insisting that it is being orchestrated from abroad.

MEK conducting special ops inside Syria

While the anti-Assad rebels in Syria are suffering defeat, hundreds of terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK, a.k.a. MKO and PMOI) members have entered the chaos-stricken country to back the MEK conducting special ops inside Syria so-called Free Syrian Army.

According to the agreement signed between Mujahedin-e Khalq terrorist group, United States, Turkey, and Israel, some areas of the Iraqi Kurdistan have been converted to military bases for training armed groups fighting against the Syrian government, Arabic language Ur News agency quoted a highly placed security source as saying.

The source added that people from Yemen, Tunis, and Saudi Arabia are receiving military trainings at the bases, adding, “Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization is now conducting a series of special operations inside Syria through their trained elements.”

Independent Iraqi news agency Buratha released a similar report today saying that recent reports from Syria indicate that elements of the terrorists Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization are working hand-in-hand with armed rebel groups in Syria.

“Hundreds of Munafeqins (hypocrites, as Mujahedin-e Khalq terrorists are called in and Iraq) entered Syria and a number of them are training terrorists at (military) bases in Turkey and Iraqi Kurdistan.”

Earlier this week, an informed Iraqi security source revealed that some members of the terrorist MKO group “are going to leave Iraq to join the anti-Assad terrorists through Syria’s northern borders.”

Report: MEK to join terrorists in Aleppo

Sources revealed that some members of the terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq group (MEK, a.k.a. MKO and PMOI) are going to leave Iraq to join the anti-Assad terrorists through Syria’s northern borders.

“A number of U.S. and Turkish officers accompanied by several commanders of Kurdish Peshmerga forces had a meeting with some high ranking members of the terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization in Erbil, Iraq,” well-informed Iraqi security sources told the Arabic language Top News TV channel.

The sources added that the meeting decreed that Peshmerga forces transfer a number of MKO elements from Iraq to Turkey and then to the northern parts of Syria in order for these anti-Iran terrorists to join the so-called Free Syrian Army.

Directed by Nasser Qandil, Lebanese politician and former Member of Parliament, the news channel added that U.S. and Turkish officials have told the MKO that “Saudi Arabia and Qatar are committed to jointly pay the costs of relocation and resettlement, expected to be roughly $ 250 million,” as well as $ 100 million per month for the militias.

On the other hand, the Americans guaranteed to facilitate the MKO’s secret withdrawal from Iraq to Turkey.

A few days ago, the sources added, Nouri al-Maliki caught Americans off guard by telling them that Iran is aware of the plot of temporary relocation of MKO members to Erbil and they have warned against the move.

“Opposed by the Iraqi Prime Minister, the plan will be done gradually and secretly,” informed sources predicted.

challenged Swedish student and attempts to extort money from his family.

The 23-year-old MKO member, identified as Parastou Namdar Faiz-Abadi, was found guilty of participating in the kidnapping of Alexander Ahman in the in eastern Swedish city of Uppsala, located 67 kilometers (41 miles) north of the capital, Stockholm, late last December, Mehr News Agency reported.

The report added that Namdar Faiz-Abadi conducted the abduction with the help of another MKO member identified as Moshen Aslan Khan Afshar, 27, who undertook a name change in 2008 to Elias Vecalius, and 26-year-old Magnus Dahlskog.

Namdar Faiz-Abadi and her two accomplices later contacted Ahman’s family and demanded a ransom to free their son.

The MKO has sought ways to prevent the dissemination of the news as it could frustrate its lobbying efforts to get off the US State Department’s foreign terrorist organization list.

The MKO fled to Iraq in 1986, where it enjoyed the support of Iraq’s executed dictator Saddam Hussein, and set up its camp near the Iranian border.

The group is also known to have cooperated with Saddam in suppressing the 1991 uprisings in southern Iraq and carrying out the massacre of Iraqi Kurds.

The MKO has carried out numerous acts of violence against the Iranian civilians and government officials.

MKO Still Glorifies Violence and Militarism

Glorification of a military operation indicates violence is still boiling inside MKO

To many who have met with the large-scale struggle of Mojahedin Khalq Organization MKO/MEK MKO Still Glorifies Violence and Militarism to be removed from the US the State Department’s list of FTO, it is a great shock to see it taking a fierce pride in glorifying its past perpetrated terrorist deeds. Glorification of terrorism is tantamount to engaging in terrorism itself and hardly anybody expects a terrorist group insisting to have abandoned terrorism in favor of a liberal democracy, although there is no written or public record to verify the claim, publically eulogize a military offense.

On 25 July 1988, only days after Iran-Iraq governments accepted the UN Security Council Resolution 598 that called for a cease fire in the eight-year long war, MKO launched its major military invasion onto the Iranian borders. Supported by Iraqi army and its air cover, Rajavi dispatched his estimated 7000 forces National Liberation Army (NLA) to demonstrate his organization’s military potentiality in a four-day lasted operation, namely ”Operation Eternal Light”. In its unclassified 1992 report on MKO, the State Department refers to the operation as an explicit evidence of MKO’s armed struggle and close collaboration with Saddam’s regime.

“The group launched its most significant incursion in June and July 1988, when they coordinated an advance into Iran with Iraqi forces. During the same offensive, Iraqi units in other sectors of the front used chemical weapons against Iran. NLA units briefly seized the Iranian border towns of Mehran, Karand, and Islamabad-e Gharb. The Mojahedin claimed to have killed 40,000 Iranians, but other military observers said the, NLA “just got wiped out” when Iranian reinforcements arrived.”

The operation on which MKO had heavily invested turned to be a total military failure and a proven suicide operation that led nearly 1300 forces, according to the organization’s own report, to their sacrifice. In fact, MKO hurried to take advantage of a no-war no-peace situation created after the ceasefire in limbo, a golden opportunity for Rajavi to take his last chance totally disregarding the high cost it would impose. In fact, he was desperately in need of and search for an outlet out of an inevitable cul-de-sac rather than to accomplish a strategic necessity.

The consequence of MKO’s widespread terrorist operations of bombing and assassination inside Iran and its later out-of-the-border organized hit and run operations perpetrated in the last three decades as well as its broadly launched military operation like that of the Eternal Light was to be globally recognized as a terrorist group. However, the good part is that the history and the recorded facts can never be distorted. And MKO does not seem to have any interest in renouncing its spectacular military venture as it has been condoned by some Western countries when they made a sudden U-turn and decided to delist the group.

Under the Terrorism Act passed in 2006, glorification of terrorism is outlawed in the UK; it was overlooked when a British court ordered removal of MKO from the country’s list of terrorist groups in 2008. However, a state’s decision that meets political interests differs with a nation’s opinion that can easily judge by evident discrepancy between claims and facts. Commemorating the anniversary of a terrorist military offense like the operation Eternal Light is an evident example of the glorification of violence and death-seeking attitude still boiling inside MKO.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization as a terrorist group

Mojahedin Khalq have not stopped their terror campaign

Open letter to Donald E. Graham

Open letter of the Iran Pen Club to the honorable and distinguished Chief Executive officer and Chairman of the Washington Post Company Mr. Donald E. Graham Mojahedin Khalq have not stopped their terror campaign

According to the confession of the People’s Mujahedin Organization, in their record they have had thousands of terrorist operations.

Fortunately, we got informed that the Washington Post newspaper in an enlightened article written by Mrs. Julie Jowwarrick Tate on 6 of July 2012, a small portion of the reality and the content of people’s mujahedin organization has been reflected and revealed and in a very suitable and understandable way has dissected this stream which it shows your goodwill in the valid and accurate informing of the US public opinion .

We would like to appreciate you and your colleague because of the article written in your newspaper and also we would like to inform you that unfortunately the real content and essence of the people’s mujahedin organization with 40 years of terroristic record is still unknown for the US public opinion even though your experts and professionals in terroristic and cultic affaires know that the colonel Hawkins and other US military and non military citizens were assassinated and killed by the people’s mujahedin organization , but it seems that it is not enough because in the people’s mujahedin organization’ record, there has been thousands of terrorist operations registered according to their own confession.

The honorable author of the Washington Post has mentioned in their article that “this cult has not carried out and launched any terrorist operation since 2001…….” we would like to emphasize that if they have not carried out any terrorist operation since 2001 is not because they are remorseful of the violence and violent deeds for indoctrination of their political views, it is because the presence of USA on Iraq soil and the forcible disarmament of this stream.

Surly , you accept this fact that in a realistic recognition , we should distinguish between the Irish liberation army, which deliberately and by criticizing its past dismantled and disarmed itself and by public declaration began its political activities, with the people’s mujahedin organization which was disarmed forcibly consequently they could not continue their terrorist missions because of the lack of the arms and ammunition, furthermore the people’s mujahedin organization has not declared its renunciation of the arm struggle for gaining the political power by showing any evidence and document and they have not denounced it yet. A number of the former members of people’s mujahedin organization have confessed that Massoud Rajavi and his military commanders are continuing the programming , renovating , editing and codification of the strategy of the arm struggle in theory and practice in their internal sessions and for this reason there is still the symbol of the arm on the pmoi emblem as the symbol of the arm struggle and violence.

This religious cult is trying its best to delist itself by all means from the US state department’s terrorist list by deceiving the US public opinion and US political operatives and decision makers but we should pay more attention to the potential danger of this organization and its leader , Massoud Rajavi, and we should warn the global society in advance about the danger of this organization born in Middle East , unpopular and despised among Iranian communities either in or out of Iran with the obsessions of gaining power in any way possible.

There is no doubt that the authors and the reporters and article writers in the credible newspaper like Washington Post which by endeavor in recognition of the phenomena and the dangers and the problems of the society , are the vigilant and wakeful eyes of the US society to warn their own people in advance. We as the great portion of the separated and freed members of this dangerous religious cult who are residing in Europe and Germany. in the form of an association, we continue our enlightened activities and we would like to share our experiences as well as our recognition of this dangerous religious cult which is gained during 20 years of living and working in this cult , with you in face to face meetings , by mail , or by telephone to promote and increase your knowledge and recognition of this cult . in this regard we attach some documents and books in this letter to richen and deepen your recognition of such dangerous religious cult.

Again, we appreciate you and your company and we wish you more success in your duties.
