The West used to support notorious killers—Saddam Hussein and the Taliban—because they had the same enemy. And now, in an attempt to disrupt Iran, the West is befriending and supporting the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MKO). The West should learn from their disastrous experiences. The Arabic proverb”the enemy of my enemy is my friend”offers a seemingly innocuous short term logic which the US and Europe has bought into—but banding together with militant radicals to demolish a common enemy doesn’t work.
A group of fourteen people of families of Ashraf residents left Tabriz for Baghdad along with the one-year strike of picketing families at Ashraf gates. They endeavor to visit their loved ones taken as hostages by MKO aka MEK/PMOI/PMOI cult leaders. It is of importance to call on Iraqi authorities and international human rights bodies to assist these families ..
A number of Gilani families join others picketing at Ashraf Gate on February 9th,2011 set off for Iraqi Camp Ashraf chanting their motto”Open the doors of Ashraf”in order to visit their beloved ones captured by the cult of Rajavi. The 30-people group of family members of Ashraf residents are determined to tolerate all difficulties on their path to achieve their human, legal requests. They also called on humanitarian communities and the Red Cross to aid them to visit their brainwashed children..
..Mujahedin are now losing their supporters who are demolished by people protests one after anther.MKO aka MEK/PMOI leaders and his gang are in a terrible situation. They have resorted to US and the West but the recent events have caused a dilemma to western authorities. Their vague position toward the issue notifies their tangled situation…
.. No diplomatic or intelligence force should be engaging with the MKO terrorists. What the MKO says they stand for now is irrelevant. What the MKO has done to the Iranian people is unforgivable and—puppet or no puppet—they simply have no place in the equation..The MKO leaders are professional charlatans and they know how to raise money by using “human rights” poster children in order to gain sympathy .They are disgustingly slick. And now they have partners—Israel’s Mossad intelligence, the United State’s CIA, and Britain’s MI6.
a number of families who are members of Nejat Society Tehran Branch attended a meeting where three recently defectors of MKO,analyzed the most recent situation in Camp Ashraf Iraq… participants signed a petition to UN Secretary General and UN representative in Iraq asking that their letters be delivered to their children directly by UN or ICRC’s representatives. They also asked for release of their children as soon as possible.
Most Iranians and a grim minority of Western journalists and scholars understand that the MKO has a Hitleresque type leadership. People who follow the activities of the MKO know that the US State Department designates the MKO as a”cult-like”terrorist organization that”uses propaganda and terrorism to achieve its objectives.”..to the mainstream public the MKO may appear to be a legitimate organization pushing bonafides democracy..
