Controversial west advocacy for Camp Ashraf

.. Although the Ashraf issue is separate from the issue of MEK’s status as a terrorist organization, MEK’s backers in the West have often used the conditions at the camp to garner sympathy for the group’s broader agenda in Washington and to argue that its continued listing as a terrorist group is the cause of its mistreatment… MEK’s [MKO/PMOI] current lobbying efforts were foreshadowed in a 1994 report by the U.S. State Department, which …

Many of its activists are based in Iraqi Kurdistan where Mossad has a substantial presence. It does the training there, and MKO/MEK/PMOI members do the actual killing.
