But let’s remember: The MEK and the United States have fundamentally different interests. The MEK highlights Iran’s nuclear programs — real, imagined, and downright fabricated — as a way to build support for regime change in Tehran. Hemming in the Iranian nuclear program through diplomacy removes one of the MEK’s most effective talking points in favor of bombing Iran. They won’t go down without a fight.
Iran’s permanent UN mission in New York dismissed as”baseless”and”fake”the recent claim that was raised by the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, also known as MEK, NCRI and PMOI) and appeared on a US daily…
Rumblings from both Iranian and international press seem to indicate an optimism that a nuclear deal is imminent. The MeK aka MKO/PMOI is trying to remain relevant, while also scuttle any possibility for a nuclear deal while alleging that ….
The MEK/MKO/PMOI had previously figured in US-engineered regime change plans, albeit in a very different way.

Not least because of the yellow jackets, the group’s many critics — including foreign policy-oriented Hill staffers — view the Mojahedin aka MKO/MEK/PMOI as “wacky”; they remain obscure beyond the Beltway and battle persistent criticisms that the group is a cult of personality, with adherents prone to …
“News from this group[MKO/MEK/PMOI] is often good for getting right-wingers to show their “O” face and belittle the EU3’s diplomacy with Tehran, but it’s probably good that we’re not banking on these exiles for too much intel,” he opined.
