A defected member of the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization unveiled that MKO ringleaders had issued an order to assassinate Iraqi President Jalal Talabani and former Head of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq Ayatollah Seyed Mohammad Baqir al-Hakim.
The defected MKO member said that the ringleaders of the terrorist group, specially Massoud Rajavi, had called on the members to be ready to assassinate the two renowned Iraqi opposition figures 18 years ago.
The defected member also revealed that the MKO leaders hired a number of spies to chase the defected members and find their living place to assassinate them as well.
Defection has increased in the MKO in recent years. Earlier another defected member of the MKO unveiled that the ringleaders of the group are using every means within their reach to control their dissident members, including life threats, to keep members in the group’s main stronghold in Northern Iraq.
"Massoud Rajavi (the main ringleader of the MKO) has announced many times that if anybody wants to escape from (the camp) Ashraf (in Iraq), he/she will be killed or executed," Abdollatif Chahardari said in April.
Also in March, another defected member of the MKO revealed that the female members of the group have been living under captivity for more than 25 years and are not even allowed to appear in public places alone.
"It can be firmly said that 95% of the women in Ashraf Camp (the terrorist group’s resort in Iraq) have not even been allowed to step in Iraq’s public and recreational places alone all throughout the last 25 years," the defected member said.
The former member of the MKO also revealed that nearly 70% of the female members of the terrorist group are single and have not been allowed to marry anyone in or outside the group.
And only a total 10% of the married members have been allowed to have children, he added.
The MKO has been in Iraq’s Diyala province since the 1980s.
Iraqi security forces took control of the training base of the MKO at Camp Ashraf – about 60km (37 miles) north of Baghdad – in 2009 and detained dozens of the members of the terrorist group.
The Iraqi authority also changed the name of the military center from Camp Ashraf to the Camp of New Iraq.
Many of the MKO members abandoned the terrorist organization while most of those still remaining in the camp are said to be willing to quit but are under pressure and torture not to do so.
A May 2005 Human Rights Watch report accused the MKO of running prison camps in Iraq and committing human rights violations.
According to the Human Rights Watch report, the outlawed group puts defectors under torture and jail terms.
Numerous articles and letters posted on the Internet by family members of MKO recruits confirm reports of the horrific abuse that the group inflicts on its own members and the alluring recruitment methods it uses.
The most shocking of such stories includes accounts given by former British MKO member Ann Singleton and Mustafa Mohammadi — the father of an Iranian-Canadian girl who was drawn into the group during an MKO recruitment campaign in Canada.
Mohammadi recounts his desperate efforts to contact his daughter, who disappeared several years ago – a result of what the MKO called a ‘two-month tour’ of Camp Ashraf for teenagers.
He also explains how the group forces the families of its recruits to take part in pro-MKO demonstrations in Western countries by threatening to kill their loved ones.
Lacking a foothold in Iran, the terrorist group recruits ill-informed teens from Iranian immigrant communities in Western states and blocks their departure afterwards.
The MKO, whose main stronghold is in Iraq, is blacklisted by much of the international community, including the United States.
Before an overture by the EU, the MKO was on the European Union’s list of terrorist organizations subject to an EU-wide assets freeze. Yet, the MKO puppet leader, Maryam Rajavi, who has residency in France, regularly visited Brussels and despite the ban enjoyed full freedom in Europe.
The MKO is behind a slew of assassinations and bombings inside Iran, a number of EU parliamentarians said in a recent letter in which they slammed a British court decision to remove the MKO from the British terror list. The EU officials also added that the group has no public support within Iran because of their role in helping Saddam Hussein in the Iraqi imposed war on Iran (1980-1988).
Iraq had announced earlier this month that members of the terrorist group must leave by the end of 2011.
Growing International support for Palestinians prompts desperate measures from Israeli lobby
An NCRI insider (National Council of Resistance of Iran is also on the US terrorism list as an alias of the MEK) has revealed that the Israeli lobby has employed the Mojahedin Khalq (aka; MKO, MEK, Rajavi cult) terror group to bring thousands of rented crowd fillers to Washington in order to counter the day of Qods annual rally on Friday 26th August. Qods day is an annual day of protest against the illegal occupation of Palestinian land and the city of Qods (Jerusalem, the second most important city for Muslims after Mecca) by Israel.
Leaders of the Washington-backed terrorist cult have been allocated a budget to bring over 5,000 people to the counter rally, but so far the MEK has only been able to gather around a thousand participants (too much money not enough brains?) The group has already organised the travel arrangements (plane tickets, visas, hotels etc) to fly around 1,000 people from Europe and elsewhere. The travellers are promised a free two week holiday with pocket money in return for participating for a couple of hours in the counter demonstration. Organisers and agencies that will be in charge of the shipments are offered considerably more.
The MEK operatives have promised guarantees that participants in the rally will not be under any pressure or scrutiny from law enforcement agencies – which have already given written permission for the terrorist group to gather under the flag of the Mojahedin Khalq (an FTO according to the USG), and they will not face prosecution for any reason, under any circumstances. The leaders of the terror cult openly tell their forces that the group has secured extrajudicial protection from the highest authorities in the American political, judicial and law enforcement circles. (Presumably through affiliation with AIPAC and other Israeli connected organisations.)
Of course, it is clear that they cannot do this without some kind of official support. MEK backers in the US House of Representative are providing lawyers for legal advice to facilitate ways to circumvent the ban on entry to the US of anyone who has links, past or present, to a designated FTO. The MEK supporters will fly via various airports in the US and Canada over several days before arriving in Washington for the rally.
(At the same time, genuine refugees who have escaped the MEK are harassed by the US and its embassies across the world when they try to secure help and succour.)
According to the NCRI insider, some operatives have already arrived in Washington D.C. to prepare the ground for the arrival of the other thousand. Mojahedin Khalq have increased their safe house capacity in Washington by two more blocks of apartments and their US representatives (including former Saddam Hussein’s private army commanders Alireza Jafarzadeh and Ali Safavi) are currently heading a few teams of operatives while liaising with their backers in the corridors of the House of Representative and the Senate. According to a high ranking politician in Washington, the American government, the FBI and other so called security agencies are no match for the Israeli lobby and would not even attempt to stop the influx of these mercenaries to the city.
The Mojahedin Khalq (aka Saddam’s private army) started its terror campaign with the assassination of 6 Americans in Tehran and have, since then by its own admission assassinated over 16000 Iranians, 25000 Iraqis and scores of individuals of American, European, Pakistani, African and even Chinese descent.
While we do not expect or even find the American government capable of intervening and halt the influx of Mojahedin Khalq operatives into their capital city, we warn the countries officials against any failure to prevent harm the critics of the terrorist group in the US, particularly the genuine Iranian opposition groups who have been vocal against the neoconservative and Zionist use of terrorist groups under the guise of supporting opposition groups.
Western and UN experts are expressing increasing doubt about the claims raised by the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) about Iran’s peaceful nuclear program, saying 
that the MKO merely wants to serve the neoconservative hawks in Washington.
David Albright, a former UN weapons inspector and director of the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington is one of them.
"I can no more trust their information," David Albright said.
"It is like a barrage they are throwing up, making all of these accusations. That highly enriched uranium came from Pakistan. That there are two enrichment projects that are active. That bomb designs came from AQ Khan. There is not a single bit of evidence that has been offered to back any of this," the website of the Habilian association quoted Albright as saying.
While the MKO provides a major share of the US and Western intelligence on Iran’s nuclear activities, Albright said that their claims now reflect "a political agenda."
Meantime, in his piece, Iran’s Nuclear Power Play, Dilip Hiro reveals how Tehran was able to secure nuclear, political and trade concessions from the Europeans in return for agreeing to temporarily suspend uranium enrichment.
Washington and its Western allies accuse Iran of trying to develop nuclear weapons under the cover of a civilian nuclear program, while they have never presented any corroborative evidence to substantiate their allegations. Iran denies the charges and insists that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only.
Tehran stresses that the country has always pursued a civilian path to provide power to the growing number of Iranian population, whose fossil fuel would eventually run dry.
Despite the rules enshrined in the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) entitling every member state, including Iran, to the right of uranium enrichment, Tehran is now under four rounds of UN Security Council sanctions for turning down West’s calls to give up its right of uranium enrichment.
Tehran has dismissed West’s demands as politically tainted and illogical, stressing that sanctions and pressures merely consolidate Iranians’ national resolve to continue the path.
The presence of the MKO camp in Iraq and the consequences of their remaining are among the main topics discussed in Iraq ‘s political circles. 
In a conference organized by the Iraqi Center for Media Development, a number of Iraqi officials and ordinary people came together in capital Baghdad to talk about the MKO presence in Iraq.
The attendees stated that the brutality of the MKO members against the Iraqis in the 1991remind them of the bloody era of the dictator Saddam which lasted more than thirty five years.
The organizers said that the Iraqi government has decided to give the MKO members six months time to leave the country.
Many others showed frustration toward the intervention of the US government in this issue, saying that the US forces are putting pressures on the Iraqi officials to keep the MKO in Iraq. They said the main motive is to use MKO to launch attacks against the neighboring country.
Political analyst say that the Iraqi government should take some serious steps toward the expulsion of the MKO.
The group is especially notorious in Iran for having sided with former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein during the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war.

The ringleaders of the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization are preparing a plan to use dissident members of the group for an upcoming assault on the Iraqi forces guarding the MKO’s main camp in Northern Iraq, a rights group revealed on Sunday. 
According to a report published by the website of the Habilian association – a human rights group formed of the family members and relatives of the Iranian victims of terrorism – the ringleaders of the MKO had earlier threatened to massacre all the group members if the Iraqi government embarks on expelling the terrorist group from the country.
The report said that the MKO leaders have worked out plans to send dissident members to the frontline of any future conflict with the Iraqi forces in a bid to get them killed to get rid of them.
According to the rights group, the MKO gang leaders have prepared plans to coax a number of members into escaping from the camp to shoot them from behind and also persuade dozens of others to carry out self-immolation – by using fuel bottles which have already been prepared – and commit suicide in front of TV cameras.
Also, a defected member of the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization had earlier unveiled that MKO ringleaders are using every means within their reach to control their dissident members, including life threats, in a move to keep the members in the group’s main stronghold in Northern Iraq.
"Massoud Rajavi (the main ringleader of the MKO) has announced many times that if anybody wants to escape from (the camp) Ashraf (in Iraq), he/she will be killed or executed," Abdollatif Chahardari [Shadvari]said.
He reiterated that the ringleaders of the MKO also prevent the members who are residing in Camp Ashraf from taking refuge in other countries, saying, "Ashraf is the only place you have."
Also in March, another defected member of the MKO revealed that the female members of the group have been living under captivity for more than 25 years and are not even allowed to appear in public places alone.
"It can be firmly said that 95% of the women in Ashraf Camp (the terrorist group’s resort in Iraq) have not even been allowed to step in Iraq’s public and recreational places alone all throughout the last 25 years," the defected member said.
The former member of the MKO also revealed that nearly 70% of the female members of the terrorist group are single and have not been allowed to marry anyone in or outside the group.

The recent protest against the Mujahedeen Khalq organization {MKO} in the Diala province has raised more security concerns in Iraq. The protesters who gathered at the front of the Ashraf camp called on the government to deport the members of the MKO from the Diala region 
because they were found to be supporting an armed group in the region, a group which is believed to be destabilizing the secured atmosphere in the province.
It is believed that the members of the Mujahedeen Khlaq organization have been living within a fenced residence in Diala for several years. Diala itself is a region located in the Northern region of Bagdad, the activities of the MKO dated back to the 1960s when they resisted some of the actions and rule of the former Iranian ruler, and since then the group was driven into exile in 1979 under the Iranian revolution but the group has found solace in Iraq where they re-grouped and started its operation on a new ground. After the United States invasion of Iraq in the gulf war, he MKO group were disarmed but its members were offered the refugee status by the United Nations.
Security concerns has been a major source of worry for the Iraqi government in recent time and with the elimination of the head of Al-Qaeda network- Osama Bin Laden, the security concern has increased especially with the anticipation of reprisal attacks from the terrorist group, it will be important for Iraq to step up its security against both local and international insurgencies as such will be one of the best possible ways of allaying the fears of potential investors in the Iraqi Dinar, it will also help the country sustain its rather fragile peace and maintain its position among the leading Middle eastern countries.
This is the right time for the Iraqi government to now step up its actions against the MKO group as well as other armed groups which are directly or indirectly linked with any other armed group in or outside of the Iraq territories, the tightening of securities in and outside of Iraq will create an enabling environment for more investment companies to thrive and even expand their operations in the country, an increase in investment in the country will definitely lead to an increase in Dinar which in turn will increase its value.

Iraqi Defense Ministry announced on Tuesday that three leaders from “People Mujahedeen of Iran (PMOI)” have seceded from the group.
They flew Ashraf Camp and handed themselves to Iraqi authorities, the Ministry said.
The separatists accused PMOI commands of interfering in Iraq’s affairs and training Ashraf Camp residents on using arms to attack Iraqi Forces. The group was accused as well of training Iraqis and giving them positions in the government in order to endorse the group’s presence in Iraq.
“Three leaders of People Mujahedeen of Iran managed to escape Ashraf Camp along with tens others. Separatists are namely senior leader Maryam Sanjabi, leader Abdul Latif Shadvari and leader Ibrat Kikha’i”, Defense Ministry spokesman Mohammed Al Askari said in a press conference in Baghdad attended by Alsumarianews.
“There are confirmed reports and data from the new Iraq camp formerly known as Ashraf Camp about many residents trying to escape the camp and leave Iraq. Tens of them managed to flee the camp and handed themselves to the Iraqi government seeking help”, Al Askari said.
“Iraq’s government is dealing humanitarianly with these people and is trying to help them at their ease by coordinating with the international organizations and friend countries they wish to resort to. The government seeks to help camp residents who wish to leave the country upon their preferences”, he stressed.
Separatist Ibrat Kikha’i argued during the press conference that the group People Mujahedeen of Iran “does not care about the losses of life inside the group due to the latest incidents given that casualties include its regular members not its general command. The high commands of PMOI do not acknowledge international laws and do not respect the laws of their host country”, he continued.
Kikha’i revealed that head of PMOI group Massoud Rajavi always calls for war and says: “If there is no war, I will make the war”.
The group always looks to interfere in Iraq’s affairs, separatist Ibrat Kikha’i said.
“During the first years of war, Rajavi was drawing in Iraqis to train them and give them positions inside the government. His aim was to stay in Iraq by using these people as a support for PMOI group”, Kikha’i said.
“Rajavi formed a committee inside the camp and established work departments for social communication with Iraqis. He drew in a number of Iraqi citizens and gave them personal salaries and handouts to turn against the government”, he added.
Separatist Abdul Latif Shadvari explained that he joined the PMOI group when he was 15 years old. He held important positions since 25 years and decided to secede from the group due to the pressures he has been subject to all these years. “PMOI members did not have the chance to express themselves freely during the last eight years”, Shadvari said.
“The group prepares us inside the camp for war even against the Iraqi Government. Members are trained on how to clash with Iraqi Forces and take away their arms. The group interferes in Iraq’s affairs. It interfered even in protests and spurred violence and sabotage”, he added.
“The group leaders believe in bloodsheds, suicide bombings and war which they regard as the main grounds of the group. Armed operations are one of the most important ideologies to the group”, separatist Latif Shadvari concluded.
Separatist leader Maryam Sinjari stated during the press conference that she is “a member of the command office in the group People Mujahedeen of Iran and a member of the Iranian opposition”. She seceded from the group after “a 20 year old enduring experience inside the group”, she said stressing that “head of the group Massoud Rajavi rejects others’ opinions and refuses any other command. He has been so for 30 years and is getting more oppressive day by day”.
“The group members do not enjoy any human rights since more than 25 years. The group’s internal structure does not allow anyone to express his view, call his family or use the phone or the internet”, she added.
“It is forbidden to have a family and children. Members of the group are not allowed to get engaged and married. The group counts for 3400 members and it is a few number facing 80 million people in Iran”, Sinjar continued.
“Anyone who secedes from the group is sentenced to death. This is what Rajavi always says. Two leaders of the high command were killed for this reason during the last years. Others are imprisoned inside the camp. Many members would like to get out of the camp but they don’t in fear for their life”, she concluded.
The presence of People Mujahedeen of Iran in Iraq has taken a new perspective lately. While the issue has been coming to light irregularly since the fall of the former regime, the settlement of this crisis seems to be imminent mainly after Iraq’s government issued a decision to end the presence of PMOI in Iraq by the end of 2011 considering the group as a terrorist group implicated in the killing of Iraqis.
The decision was backed by a Defense Ministry order to form an investigation committee into riots at Ashraf Camp that erupted on April 8. Iraq’s Defense Ministry suspects that PMOI group has used riot incidents to kill some of its members who wanted to leave the camp.
People Mujahedeen of Iran on the other hand accused Iraqi security forces of killing 30 of its members and wounding at least 300 others in clashes that erupted at Ashraf Camp.

The anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) and the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) have been in tight cooperation in recent months to fabricate and spread fake reports on Iran in a bid to spark tension and crisis in the country, a report said on Wednesday.
According to a report published by the website of the Habilian association – a human rights group formed of the family members and relatives of the Iranian victims of terrorism – the US and British radio and television networks, in an orchestrated move with the MKO, are desperately trying to spread fake and fabricated news to portray Iran as a country in tension and chaos.
The website added that the multifaceted cooperation has been broadened by the western media after their similar efforts to spark tension and unrests in Iran failed and led to the further unity among the Iranian nation.
The Habilian website added that in some cases the MKO members have sent out-dated pictures and footages of unrests in Iran or other neighboring countries to the BBC, trying to pretend that those footages had been taken from new unrests in Iran.
Earlier this month, reliable sources said that reports about the detention of opposition leaders by the Iranian government are false and have been fabricated and released by the members of the MKO in a move to stir unrests in Iran.[…]
Governor of Iraq’s Diyala province has held the terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) responsible for the recent surge in violence across the northeastern region.
“Intelligence reports drawn by the security committee in Diyala prove that MKO hands are involved in a series of deadly terror attacks and explosions in the province,” Fars news agency cited Abdul Nasser al-Mahdawi as telling AK News on Tuesday.
Mahdawi added that the terrorist organization has managed to train elements of other extremist groups and help them sneak into Diyala province to engage in terror activities.
The Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization was founded in Iran in the 1960s, but its top leadership and members fled the country in the 1980s after carrying out a series of assassinations and bombings inside the country.
The terrorist group is behind the killings of thousands of Iranian civilians and officials over the past 30 years. One of their deadliest attacks was a 1981 bombing that killed Iranian Judiciary chief Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti, along with 71 other senior officials.
In 1999, MKO assassinated the chief-of-staff of Iran’s Armed Forces, Ali Sayad Shirazi, in front of his house in the early hours of April 10, as he was preparing to leave for work.
MKO is notorious for the cult like tactics it uses to keep its members in line — namely murder and torture of its defectors.
Numerous articles and letters posted on the Internet by family members of MKO recruits confirm reports of the horrific abuse that the group inflicts on its own members and its reliance on dubious methods to lure new members into its fold.
The MKO is also known to have cooperated with Iraq’s executed dictator Saddam Hussein in a cruel suppressing of a 1991 uprising in southern Iraq and the massacre of Iraqi Kurds.
To show the delighted for the new Security Council resolution against Iran, Maryam Rajavi in a statement that was released by the National Council of Resistance expressed joy and satisfaction and welcomed the move and the imposition of new sanctions by the US and the European Union. She expressed the hope that these sanctions would improve to a comprehensive technological, diplomatic and oil embargoes against the Iranian regime and emphasized that the international community should press Iran by imposing serious to give up. NCR statement quoted Maryam Rajavi in this regard saying: "The only working approach to deal with this regime is an all-assertive decisiveness. A policy that on the one hand involves comprehensive arms, technological, diplomatic and oil embargo against the regime and on the other hand, implies the recognition for the removal of restrictions against the Iranian Resistance".
In this connection, the official site of MKO while releasing this news, appreciated Hillary Clinton’s quote that the antagonistic attitude of Turkey and Brazil had no effect on the adoption of new sanctions against Iran by the Security Council and referred to the decision as a step towards the global peace. Maryam Rajavi and her propaganda machine have previously and repeatedly emphasized the need for imposing comprehensive sanctions against Iran and have celebrated the decisions completely forgetting that the sanctions are imposed against the Iranian people rather than being punitive measures that more serve to ensure the preservation of the US and Western countries’ interests.
Shrewd opportunist as MKO is, it is always waiting for troubled waters to fish. In this case of welcoming impose of sanctions on Iran, Maryam Rajavi demands her reward and immediately asks the international community to recognize her organization as a symbol of resistance and its removal of restrictions against it. It seems that she is making a deal for her own interest as well, caring not the least neither for the interests of the imposers nor the imposed. However, she is more addressing the US since Americans, as the most influential member of the international community and the Security Council, continue to recognize MKO both as a terrorist group and a cult. Furthermore, despite the tacit support of MKO in Iraq, it has granted the right of tackling with the problem of MKO to the legitimate government of Iraq. MKO, after losing all-round support of Saddam, directed all its efforts to win the support of America and the West, but despite all made attempts to satisfy them, it is still viewed as a violence-oriented, terrorist, ideologically dogmatic, anti-democratic, sectarian, and untrustable organization without the least recognized legitimacy and popularity among the Iranian people.
Although it is removed from some European lists of terror, the move is much rooted in their uncompromising political attitudes against Iranian regime rather than recognizing a terrorist group they themselves have a deeper understanding of its nature. The evidence is a multitude of published reports by state-run research organizations and institutes that recognize MKO responsible for sporadic bombings, assassinations, violence, unrest and anarchy after the 1979 revolution in Iran. Although at the present enjoying the support of the Hawks, the official positions of the US officials and particularly the Congress and the State Department do not confirm that of a supporter and still recognizes MKO as a terrorist group. Maryam Rajavi calls any investment in Iranian regime counter to democracy and human rights, but the West and the US are well aware that more absurd is to have the slightest investment, at least before the eyes of the public, in a terrorist cult that has the least respect neither for the democracy nor for human rights.
