Considering the fact that the US has no common interest with the MKO &#8211;anti Iran stance as an American duty has also been cooked by Israel. In fact, Israel bribes the senators, congressmen, mayors and governors of the allied country to normalize relation with the MKO, a sworn enemy of US with blood on hand.<\/p>\n<p>This is the very reason ISIS can be suspected of collusion with Israel. If the MKO could get removed of terror list, ISIS which has not killed the US citizens \u2013as the MKO did in the 1970s&#8211;\u00a0 could also get but at a time chosen by Israel. Enemy of my enemy is my friend is obsolete ideological term for Israel. For Israel making friendship with the enemies of the friend and then using both of them for its own reactionary interests is the norm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFormer administration officials like Tom Ridge and Washington think tanks allied with the Israel Lobby have published screeds calling for violent overthrow of the Iranian regime,\u201d Richard Silverstein of the Jewish website Tikun Olam writes. \u201cTheir op-eds are bought and paid for by former terror groups like the MeK charged with assassinating U.S. diplomats.\u00a0 Ridge alone has earned tens of thousands of dollars for giving 15-minute speeches addressed to MeK gatherings around the globe.\u00a0 Scores of other past officials including Howard Dean, Rudy Giuliani, Ed Rendell, John Bolton, have also joined the gravy train.\u201d [1]<\/p>\n<p>A former CIA agent who writes on the American Herald Tribune, Philip Giraldi revealed the well-paid lobbying campaign of the MKO in the US government. He writes: \u201cMulti-million dollar contracts with Washington lobbying firms experienced at \u201cworking\u201d congress backed up by handsome speaking fees have induced many prominent Americans to join the chorus supporting NCRI. Prior to 2012, speaking fees for the group started at $15,000 and went up from there. Former Pennsylvania governor Ed Rendell reported more than $150,000 in honoraria. Rudy Giuliani has been paid generously for years at $20,000 per appearance for brief, twenty-minute speeches. Bear in mind that MEK was a listed terrorist group at the time and accepting money from it to promote its interests should have constituted material support of terrorism.\u201d [2]<\/p>\n<p>The US paid advocates of the MKO have been very probably informed about the true substance of the MKO by prominent columnists like Philip Giraldi. \u201cMEK is widely regarded as a terrorist cult headed by a bizarre husband and wife team Massoud and Maryam Rajavi,\u201d he asserts. \u201cIts members are required to be celibate and are subjected to extensive brainwashing, physical torture, severe beatings even unto death, and prolonged solitary confinement if they question the leadership.\u00a0 One scholar who has studied them describes their beliefs as a \u201cweird combination of Marxism and Islamic fundamentalism.\u201d [3]<\/p>\n<p>He suggests that with the sharp turn of the Trump Administration against Iran, the MKO is now finding an audience in the US, \u201ctelling the American public that Iran is&#8221;cheating&#8221;on the nuclear deal\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>A few weeks prior to the article by Philip Giraldi, Yuram Abdullah Weiler published an article on the American Herald Tribune titled \u201cThe Iran Nuclear \u201cThreat\u201d: Trump\u2019s Recycled Fake News\u201d. His investigated post exposes the so-called expert Alireza Jafarzadeh as the MKO\u2019s arm in the US war hawk media, the Fox News. He suggests that Jafarzadeh just recycles the same alleged intelligence on the Iran nuclear program that he has repeated over and over since 2002. [4]<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJafarzadeh gained notoriety in August 2002 when he held a press conference to present \u201cevidence\u201d of a nuclear weapons program in Iran\u201d he writes. \u201cIn his 2006 book titled \u201cThe Iran Threat,\u201d which reads like a pulp-fiction spy thriller, he admitted that he has worked as a lobbyist for the MeK and even managed to convince 219 members of the U.S. House of Representatives to sign a statement in support of the NCRI [\u2026] The similarity of the current (2017) Fox News article and the 2005 press release is striking.\u201d [5]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where is this intelligence fabricated originally?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The prominent journalist Gareth Porter has several times answered this question based on documented information. A few weeks ago, once more he asserted that Zionism is the main element to run the US policy and the agenda of its terror and propaganda arms in the world. \u201cPresident Donald Trump\u2019s new Iran policy clearly represents a dangerous rejection of diplomacy in favor of confrontation,\u201d Porter suggests. \u201cBut it\u2019s more than that: It\u2019s a major shift toward a much closer alignment of U.S. policy with that of the Israeli government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.\u201d [6]<\/p>\n<p>Porter denounces the MKO\u2019s American sponsors as main operators of Zionists policy in the US. \u201cBut it was Bolton who worked with Israeli officials to plan a campaign to convince the world that Iran was secretly working on nuclear weapons,\u201d He writes. \u201cHis goal was to sell key European nations on a UN Security Council resolution accusing Iran of developing a nuclear program. Bolton explains in his memoirs that the assumption of his strategy was that either the Security Council would strip Iran of its right to have a nuclear program or the United States would take unilateral military action.\u201d [7]<\/p>\n<p>About the alleged revelations on the Iranian nuclear sites he resumes: \u201cIn the summer of 2004, a large collection of documents allegedly from a covert Iranian nuclear weapons research program was suddenly obtained by Germany\u2019s foreign intelligence agency. Those documents became the sole alleged evidence that such a program existed. But this writer found more than one telltale sign of fraud in the papers, and a former senior German foreign office official told me on the record in March 2013 that the source who passed on the documents was a member of the Mujihadeen e-Khalq (MEK), the armed Iranian opposition group. The MEK has allegedly worked with Israel\u2019s Mossad for some time.\u201d [8]<\/p>\n<p><strong>What makes the MKO credible for Iran hawks?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Richard Silverstein notices the history of the group and concludes that \u201cIt would be totally in character for the MeK to accept funding from Iran\u2019s enemies, as it was once sheltered in Iraq by Saddam Hussein during the Iran-Iraq war.\u201d [9]<\/p>\n<p>Some of the services the MKO offers its sponsors are listed by Silverstein: \u201cthe MeK participated in the assassination of five Iranian nuclear scientists. Many analysts believe that MeK\u2019s mysterious largesse originated in the treasury of the Saudi regime, a sworn enemy of the Iran\u2019s Shia regime.\u00a0 NBC, quoting Obama administration sources, claimed the Mossad was an important funder as well.\u00a0 Meir Dagan, Israel\u2019s former Mossad chief, publicly boasted of Israeli acts of terrorism sponsored inside Iran.\u00a0 Clearly, these sorts of operations need Iranian insiders and MeK is a likely culprit.\u00a0 The same NBC report asserted that the MeK participated in the assassination of five Iranian nuclear scientists.\u00a0 I reported here, based on a high-level Israeli former military officer, that the Mossad and MeK jointly co\u00f6rdinated the attacks.\u00a0 Other journalists have reported that the Saudis gave Israel $1-billion for various operations to sabotage Iran\u2019s nuclear program including the assassinations and the Stuxnet malware attack.\u201d [10]<\/p>\n<p>In all these filthy deals there is a \u201cpoor bargain\u201d for the people of the world. The destructive cult of Rajavi is a bad tool for the warmongers that will one day come back to haunt them just like what Al Qaeda and ISIS did.<\/p>\n<p>By Mazda Parsi<\/p>\n<p>Sources:<\/p>\n<p>[1] Silverstein, Richard, Trump and Iran Nuclear Deal: \u2018On the Road to Nowhere\u2019, <em>Tikun Olam<\/em>, November 5, 2017<\/p>\n<p>[2] Giraldi, Philip, The Rise of MEK\/NCRI in Washington: Pay Off The Right People and You Are No Longer A Terrorist, <em>American Herald Tribune<\/em>, October 30, 2017<\/p>\n<p>[3] ibid<\/p>\n<p>[4] Weiler, Yuram Abdullah, The Iran Nuclear \u201cThreat\u201d: Trump\u2019s Recycled Fake News, <em>American Herald Tribune<\/em>, October 13, 2017<\/p>\n<p>[5] ibid<\/p>\n<p>[6] Porter, Gareth, Trump Trashes Iran Deal to Satisfy Netanyahu U.S-Iran policy is closer to Israel than it has been in years, the American Conservative, October 20, 2017<\/p>\n<p>[7] ibid<\/p>\n<p>[8] ibid<\/p>\n<p>[9] Silverstein, Richard, Trump and Iran Nuclear Deal: \u2018On the Road to Nowhere\u2019, Tikun Olam, November 5, 2017<\/p>\n<p>[10] ibid<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The secret deals between the cultish, violent regressive MKO &#8211;which was an acolyte of Saddam Hussein&#8211; and the US warmongers, show that Israel will create a friend out of an enemy of a friend<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7659,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[85,642,178],"module":[81],"ctype":[17],"blog":[3],"class_list":["post-7658","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mujahedin-khalq-opposition-group","tag-mujahedin-khalq-terrorism","tag-paid-advocacy-for-mko","tag-pmoi-iran-people","module-article","ctype-story","blog-nejat-bloggers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7658","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7658"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7658\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7659"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7658"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7658"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7658"},{"taxonomy":"module","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/module?post=7658"},{"taxonomy":"ctype","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctype?post=7658"},{"taxonomy":"blog","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nejatngo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog?post=7658"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
