However, what is worth to care about is the message given by the gun in the hand of some of the group\u2019s agents in the videos. The guns may even be toy guns as the agents seem illiterate na\u00efve people who have been paid to play their parts in the videos, but it connotes the aspirations of Massoud and Maryam Rajavi for launching violence and terror in the streets of Iranian cities.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_14863\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14863\" class=\"wp-image-14863 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-2.jpg\" alt=\"The MEK Rebel Unit\" width=\"650\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-2.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-2-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-2-585x322.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-14863\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The MEK so called rebel units with gun shows that the MEK leaders are to launch violence and terror in the streets of Iranian cities<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_14862\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14862\" class=\"wp-image-14862 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-1.jpg\" alt=\"The MEK Rebel Unit\" width=\"650\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-1-300x166.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/MEK-Rebel-Unit-1-585x324.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-14862\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Are the MEK leaders after terrorizing the Iranian people at streets, as before?<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This was quite predictable about the MEK. Today, over a decade after the MEK was removed from the list of foreign terrorist organizations of the US State Department, the group\u2019s supporters still are not granted security clearance to own sensitive positions in the US government. Michael Rubin has clarified it in his article on AEIdeas titled \u201cWhy Can\u2019t <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/posts\/14810\">Mujahedin-e-Khalq<\/a> Supporters get Security Clearances?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rubin concludes that the MEK has far less support than it claims and\/or there are other impediments to its members\u2019 entry into federal service. Also, the group\u2019s financial practices and its opaque financial resources appear to undermine the ability of associates to get security clearances.<\/p>\n<p>Rubin continues to warn American authorities about the threat of the MEK. In his most recent article, he reminds them of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/posts\/14858\">FBI document<\/a> published in 2004. Rubin quotes a part of the document:<br \/>\n\u201cLos Angeles investigation has determined that the MEK is currently actively involved in planning and executing acts of terrorism. The planning takes place at MEK bases in Iraq and at the Auver Sur Oise location in Paris, France. Los Angeles has consensually recorded numerous telephone calls in which MEK leaders at this French location discuss specific acts of terrorism to include bombings. Joint investigation with the French DST and the German Cologne Police Department has revealed similar findings from French and German wire taps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Planning terror acts, carrying and using weapons, launching handmade explosives, setting fire in public places are violent acts committed by the MEK. These terror acts are undeniable because the group\u2019s propaganda websites boast of them on daily bases. Human rights activists, the international community, US and Albanian governments should take the responsibility for preventing Maryam Rajavi from spreading terror and intimidation.<\/p>\n<p>Mazda Parsi<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recent videos of the so-called rebel units of the Mujahedin-e Khalq show that the group is clearly resorting to armed struggle.
