Recent information obtained from Paris, London and the UAE reveal that MKO has come under the full mercenary of CIA by providing mental and human resources as well as intelligence help to America’s Central Intelligence Agency so as to play a major joint role in the production of chaos and insecurity inside Iran.
According to the database of Habilian Association (terror victims’ family) quoting from Nahrainnet, CIA began the formation of especial operations rooms at its offices in Washington and in Los Angeles, California, and outside the United States to deal with the aftermath of the election campaign for the presidency in Iran to develop practical programs to influence the course of elections events and destabilize the Islamic Republic.
In this regard CIA established crisis rooms in its Iran Chambers in the capitals of several countries, including some Persian Gulf countries like the UAE three months ago. A variety of suggestions about Iran’s presidential elections were sent to these rooms which were in charge of the implementation of the choices made by the specialists about how to deal with the elections in Iran.
One task of these rooms was to investigate the guidelines of Mr. Ahmadinejad’s rivals in order to discover the one whose ideas are most close to the U.S. ideas.
These rooms also worked to bring the theories of the overthrow of Iranian President Ahmadinejad to the reality in Iran.
The next stage in this process was to find the best ways of exploiting the results of the elections and to make the public believe that the organized chaos by the external factors was actually ordered by the losers of the elections and that the losers had organized attacking the facilities and security, economic and media centers and the intensification of sit-ins at universities, plazas and squares and mosques.
The slogan of these special operations rooms was "More gasoline on the firewood" and it was agreed between the experts of the American Central Intelligence Agency and elements of the People’s Mujahedeen Organization to create chaos in the streets and mosques and universities and prepare for a velvet revolution by using a specific color and to lay grounds for the collapse of the Islamic Republic or cause its weakness so as to accept the conditions of America and the West.
This procedure was set up the way if Mr. Ahmadinejad wins the elections, his victory would seem abnormal and a huge propaganda and extensive media hue and cry would show an incredible fraud in the election.
The MEK as crisis mongers
The terrorist Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) has reportedly played a major role in intensifying the recent wave of street violence in Iran.
Iranian security officials reported Saturday that they have identified and arrested a large number of MKO members who were involved in recent riots in Iran’s capital.
According to the security officials, the arrested members had confessed that they were extensively trained in Iraq’s camp Ashraf to create post-election mayhem in the country.
They had also revealed that they have been given directions by the MKO command post in Britain.
Street protests broke out after defeated presidential candidate Mir-Hossein Mousavi rejected President Ahmadinejad’s decisive win in the June 12 election. His supporters have staged a series of illegal rallies ever since.
Iran’s deputy police commander, on Saturday, warned against the mass gatherings, asserting that those who engage in any such actions would be severely reprimanded.
Earlier on Saturday, MKO leader Maryam Rajavi had supported the recent wave of street violence in Iran during a Saturday address to supporters in Paris.
Rajavi had reportedly described the MKO terrorists as the real winners of the Iranian election.
The Mujahedin Khalq Organization is a Marxist guerilla group, which was founded in the 1960s.In the past two decades, MKO leaders have been resettled in the northern outskirts of Paris.
The terrorists are especially notorious for taking sides with former dictator Saddam Hussein during the war Iraq imposed on Iran (1980-1988).
The group masterminded a slew of terrorist operations in Iran and Iraq — one of which was the 1981 bombing of the offices of the Islamic Republic Party, in which more than 72 Iranian officials were killed.
A 2007 German intelligence report from the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution has identified the MKO as a "repressive, sect-like and Stalinist authoritarian organization which centers around the personality cult of [MKO leaders] Maryam and Masoud Rajavi".
Anne Singleton, an expert on the MKO and author of ‘Saddam’s Private Army’ explains that the West aims to keep the group afloat in order to use it in efforts to stage a regime change in Iran.
"With a new Administration in the White House a pre-emptive strike on Iran looks unlikely. Instead the MKO’s backers have put together a coalition of small irritant groups, the known minority and separatist groups, along with the MKO. These groups will be garrisoned around the border with Iran and their task is to launch terrorist attacks into Iran over the next few years to keep the fire hot," she explains.
"The role of the MKO is to train and manage these groups using the expertise they acquired from Saddam’s Republican Guard," Singleton added.
A May 2005 Human Rights Watch report also condemns the MKO for running prison camps in Iraq and committing human rights violations. According to report, the outlawed group puts defectors under torture and jail terms.
Iran – Democracy in Action Leaves Regime Change ;Rajavi in the Cold
For five days Iran has been the scene of demonstration and counter demonstration in favour and against two clearly different candidates. Both, of course, are proven believers in and supporters of the fundamentals of the Islamic Republic (IRI).
The peaceful demonstrations and debates and insistence on achieving demands is clearly on going and while no one doubts that this political struggle will continue even after the Friday prayers led by Ayatollah Khamenei, it is now clear that the advocates of violence and so called revolution or ‘regime change’ have been left out in the cold. The more that time passes the more it becomes clear that this is no "regime change" or for that matter a pro-west or pro-east velvet revolution.
I have always believed that the theory of ‘democracy without democrats’ would emerge as the major factor in the Middle Eastern path to democracy. I believe that democracy will not emerge through democrats lecturing those in power to accept the benefits of democracy. Rather it is the people who are in power who will fight each other to the point that they clearly see that their insistence on the policy of ‘winner takes all’ will not only fail to deliver them ‘everything’, rather it is going to leave both sides with ‘nothing’. I believe this is the point that both sides come to understand that compromise and sharing in order to have something is a better option than losing everything.
At this point of course indigenous democrats can have a role as guides and experts to analyse and explain the ways forward, even though they themselves are probably still experimenting and maturing in this transitional period. There are a few historical examples to back this theory. For example, certain periods in Algerian, Turkish and even Sudan’s history where treaties have been achieved to give ‘something’ to each side instead of the ongoing bloodshed and power struggles over ‘everything. Treaties and power sharing of course by no means derive from a belief in democracy; rather they are the starting point toward understanding the benefits of democracy for all parties.
I have been watching with interest as the tone of media reports have changed from describing a ‘coup d’etat’ and the expectation of violence, to describing the gatherings of demonstrators as "pro-government" and "opposition". Yesterday the BBC, Aljazeera and many other outlets consciously or unconsciously referred to Ahmadi Nejad as "the president" and Mirhossein Mousavi as "the head of the opposition".
That reminded of my history books and the long ago days that Tories and Liberals in Britain were representing the very different interests of very different sectors of British society. From there emerged the left side and the right side of Parliament with political parties sitting on each side. The unwritten constitution of the British establishment accepted the voting system, the way the government was to be elected and the way the opposition and the government would "struggle" to represent the interests of their constituents.
Looking at the current prominent political figures in Iran on each side I can’t help envisaging the emergence of political parties in Iran (there are no actual political parties at this moment of time in Iran even though some groups may call themselves ‘parties’).
I also believe that even if Mirhossein Mosavi would have been the name coming out of the ballot boxes (I neither endorse nor reject the possibility of vote rigging but I certainly believe that both sides have enough support and constituencies to be heard), the recent demonstrations and political struggles in Tehran and other Iranian cities would have been inevitable.
It is no longer about "who takes everything". This time it is about "rejection of the theory of winner takes all". I have heard this too many times that the political struggle in western countries is over representative seats in parliament but the same struggle in the Middle East is over the necks and heads of candidates. I see clearly that Iran is emerging one step (and a very big step) closer towards a more pluralistic political system in which various politicians will be fighting over seats rather than each others’ necks. More importantly, the winners and the losers of every period will have to accept the rights of their opponents not because they are lover of democracy but rather because they have matured to see they have no other choice.
Irrelevant of the short term results of the power struggle during the next few weeks, there is no doubt about the big leap the Iranian nation has taken in her journey toward a real democracy. A big leap for the people of Iran and an irreversible huge falling backwards for the advocates of ‘regime change’ by foreign interventionist forces and supporters of terrorist groups like Mojahedin Khalq Organistion (aka: Rajavi cult; which lost it’s backer Saddam Hussein in 2003), Jondollah (the group affiliated to mass murderer Abdolmalek Rigi who is based in Pakistan) and Pejak (the Turkish PKK paid to relocate to the Iranian border for carrying out sabotage).
This weekend the Mojahedin Khalq cancelled its planned event in Paris. Instead, the cult is recruiting people through false associations and groups in order to take advantage of the current unrest in Iran. The idea is to bring Maryam Rajavi to Brussels to jump on the bandwagon of unrest. Anyone who knows anything about Iran will recognise this as an attempt by advocates of regime change to destroy the progress of democracy in Iran. These people will deploy terrorists to undermine the real opposition and democracy movement inside Iran.
Every peace-loving person in the world definitely believes in a peaceful negotiation between Iran and the US. More sanctions against Iran or a military invasion against Iranians will never end with a better situation for Iranian nation but with death and destruction and more hostility between the two countries.
Today President Obama is talking of diplomatic solutions to deal with Iran and the Iranian authorities will also be willing for talks if the US ends its hostile approach. Many groups and individuals welcome this move. However the neo-cons in the US who dominate Pentagon have launched a large campaign for regime change in Iran. There is also another violence minded group that views its survival in a worsened US-Iran relation.
The destructive cult of PMOI (People’s Mujahedin Organization of Iran, MEK, MKO) is still under American troops’ supervision in Camp Ashraf, although it has come under Iraqi control since January. MKO leaders and their agents are now launching a large propaganda campaign to prolong this protection since the West is their last resort after the shutdown of Camp Ashraf by the Iraqi authorities. Therefore, they engage themselves in poisoning the atmosphere in US-Iran relations. They protested outside the White House a few weeks ago to prolong their American protection over Camp Ashraf. Besides they have an active deceitful lobby in the US Congress to win support of the American congressmen by repeating the same nonsenses about Iranian nuclear program. They try to demonstrate themselves as an effective opposition group to the government in Iran but MKO is just a politico-religious cult that manipulates its victims, violates their basic human rights, separates their family from them, and tortures the internal dissidents physically and mentally.
MKO’s involvement in terrorism is very clear in its four-decade history. It assassinated several American civilians and military personnel’s working in Iran in the 1970’s. Once MKO has been disarmed by the US army, they have no more arms to assassinate their targets physically but this does not end their terrorism since MKO is a terrorist group by nature which has all the criteria of a destructive cult because of its destructive approaches against its victims. People’s Mujahedin Cult maintains its terrorist nature by its manipulative mind control system.
As a mind control cult, MEK uses all cult techniques to turn its victims into suicide bombers or individuals who are always ready to set themselves ablaze for their leaders. Thus MKO maintains its terrorist nature by terrorizing the personality and the individuality of its members.
There is also another reason for MKO’s terrorism: according to defectors, MKO members in Camp Ashraf celebrated the Sep 11 terrorist attacks while Masud Rajavi was saying :”this was the extremist Islam [AlQaida]. See, what will the revolutionary Islam [MKO] does?”
The terrorists of MKO cult, today, through their websites are exploding bombs in the air between US and Iran in order to bring regime change to Tehran by the help of their new supporters similar to the acts of terror they did against the Iraqis and Iranians when they were collaborating with Saddam Hussein during the 1980’s and 1990’s.
The US administration and US politic men are strongly advised to try not be deceived by MKO’s propaganda system. The US military and Iraqi authorities should provide help to the victims of the Rajavi’s cult in Camp Ashraf, to choose their fate with their own free will. They should be given the opportunity to leave the cult-like system of the group in which most of the members are kept by force or due to the manipulative system.
So, the US administration has to remove the obstacle against productive negotiations with Iran. Since MKO has no support among Iranian public and government, to end the US protection for the group, will pave the way for peaceful talks.

Honorable ambassador
I have the honor to inform you that I was informed by the Iranian opposition media today, such a terrible shocker, so that one of Mojahedin victims called Mohammad Sobhani was recently attacked by the Mojahedin cult terrorists in Cologne, Germany. All of a sudden,
I got shocked such a shocking terrorist action, which can be, happened in your motherland where the nurse of freedom and democracy is. However, I was not as surprised due to this cult notorious violent nature as well known at the regional and international level. As I closely know them and on the other hand, the historical and political reality and experience during last three decades has shown that the terrorism and the thought of cultism does not recognize any kind of geographical and moral border. Therefore, such terrorist activities by this cult are natural and expectable. But the human and moral conscience of the West Elites and politicians must be aware of much more terrorist activities and efforts by this cult in the future in the other European States against other Mojahedin guiltless victims and survivors who have already fled from the bloody claw and fanatic dogmatism of this sect and took refuge in the western countries. Now, it is the time for the public opinion in particular the dependable officials of the West to control and prevent the terrorist activities of this adventurous cult instead appeasing this cult and using this cult as a means for achieving political aims in the region. Mr. Ambassador, you should consider this fact that the main losers of this illegitimate political deals and appeasements are innocent survivors of Mojahedin cult who are under the direct range of this cult terrorist target in the European States. As we witness the current experience of Mr. Mohammad Sobhani in your motherland, who has been under severe and inhuman tortures by this cult for the period of two decades in the notorious custody of Ashraf garrison situated in Iraq.
In fact, the present adventurous incidents of the Ashraf garrison situated in Iraq and it is still under the ideological and cultic control of this cult and without any doubt Mojahedin cult officials and leadership is the most leading responsible of causing the whole up to date problems in the region including the recent terrorist assault on Mr. Mohammad Sobhani, prove that the Mojahedin cult’s leadership claims regarding new changes so that this cult has abandoned the violence, is quite false and vain. The latest violent efforts either in Iraq or in Germany show that the leader of this cult, Maryam Rajavi is not trustworthy and her vows and obligations regarding international norms and laws, are forged and fictitious. Therefore, she is endeavoring to achieve her reactionary and political aims via violence and terrorist activities. That is why she is reputed as Iranian Ben Laden among Iranian opposition groups and most of Iranians. As a result, now it is the appropriate time for the West to take a serious step regarding Iranian Ben laden to encounter her ipso facto terrorist threats, which can be horrible for human beings in particular for the public security and peace of the European States.
Yours truly
A Mojahedin victim, Hamid Siah Mansouri– Paris – France
A front man for the MKO has protested against Iraq’s decision to bring to trial the leaders of the terrorist group, calling it ‘illegal’.
Alireza Jafarzadeh, a top member of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization, appeared on the Fox news TV channel after the Iraqi government promised prosecution for certain leaders of the group.
Jafarzadeh said Baghdad made the decision as it was under pressure from the government in Tehran.
In a Press TV program aired on Tuesday, Iraq’s National security Advisor, Muwaffaq al-Rubaie said the members of the MKO who had committed crimes against Iraqi civilians had to stand trial in Iraqi courts.
“Iran is prepared to provide legal evidence against these people and is prepared for their trial in Iraq by the Iraqi judicial system,” the Iraqi official said.
“We are going to do this in a humane way. We are going to stick and adhere to all international laws and regulations,” he said, adding that Iran was prepared to respect the court order on the MKO members.
The Iraqi government has vowed to expel the members of the group to their country Iran or send them to a third country, maintaining ‘staying in Iraq is not an option for them’.
Iran has long called for the expulsion of MKO members from their headquarters and training center, Camp Ashraf, in Iraq.
Tehran says the members of the group who have not participated in the organization’s terrorist activities are allowed to return home but others have to stand trial in Iran or outside the country.
Several members of the group have now defected from the organization and returned to Iran.
The MKO, blacklisted as a terrorist organization by many international entities and countries including the US, is responsible for numerous acts of violence against Iranian civilians and government officials as well as Iraqi people at the time of former dictator Saddam Hussein.
Blacklisted a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) whose activities are banned in the US, MKO has initiated a propaganda blitz there along within a number of European countries to draw attention for the protection of Camp Ashraf, its main cult bastion located in Iraq that houses majority of its captivated members. Reportedly, the cult’s sympathizers residing in the US, have gathered before the Wight House to call for guaranteeing Ashraf residents’ rights granted only by the US following the invasion on the claims of war on terrorism. However, terrorists were the firsts to come under the invaders’ protection rather than the Iraqi people. Emboldened by the given protection, the terrorist MKO is combating versus the Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s earlier announced decision to expel it from Iraq according to the Iraqi Constitution and in an attempt to uproot terrorism there.
Evidently, the group’s harsh reactions have even jeopardized Iraq’s internal and national security to some extents. Its own threatening tone and some of its advocated inside and outside of Iraq against the taken decision is just a repetition of MKO’s hostile attitude shown at the inception of its armed phase after the 20 June event in Iran. Regardless of MKO’s potentialities to onset yet another military phase in spite of trying to be taken off the terrorist lists, MKO is doing its best to convince the Iraqi government to consent to its stay in Iraq in a peaceful way.
Supposedly, after Saddam’s fall, Mojahedin’s presence in Iraq has no rational justification. Getting advantage of the chaotic situation in the region, MKO’s leadership in 1986 moved the organization’s headquarters to Iraq which was considered an opportunistic decision at the time for some reasons and to achieve desired objectives. The main strategic goal for both MKO and Saddam on which the two were making the alliance was overthrowing the newly formed Islamic regime in Iran.
MKO believed that the alliance with Iraq could play a decisive role to alter the course of the war that was threatening the invader himself. The Iraqi soil offered MKO the opportunity to form the Liberation Army so it could stage cross-border attacks at the right time. Closeness to Iranian borders could facilitate it for the supposed sympathizers to join the group more easily and, on the other hand, the operational teams could easily penetrate to launch terrorist operations. A well equipped army with Saddam’s logistics as well as political and financial support was enough to keep MKO bound to Iraqi soil since the organization had concluded it was impossible to overthrow the Iranian regime from within the country.
Saddam’s fall frustrated their political arithmetic all. The possible regional transformation and Mojahedin’s disarmament on the one hand and Iraq’s internal, political transition as well as the new government’s policy to establish friendly, cooperative ties with the neighbors on the other hand led Mojahedin to isolation to desperately wait an unknown future. But the protected status granted to Mojahedin by the coalition forces offered them a prolonged opportunity to stay in Iraq until a final decision was made or they would be transferred to a third country.
No country has yet accepted to receive Ashraf residents although the group is delisted from the UK and the EU terrorist lists. It is only a matter of legal enforcement and the very same countries are well aware of the group’s terrorist nature and thus, they will actually avoid letting it roam in the streets of their countries to jeopardize their social-political security.
The only hope for MKO is the US that has already taken it under its protection. Will the US’s new president assent to wear the same hypocritical mask that had become a precedent before his presidency? Especially at such a critical juncture he claims to be after a total political change in ties with Iran. Let’s wait to see how sincere the new administration is in its slogans. Besides, it has a responsibility towards its people to accomplish, that is to say, to protect them against terrorism. It will be much absurd to chant slogans of war on terrorism while the real terrorists receive full protection and promises of going to live next door as neighbors of American citizens.
You could not make this stuff up even if you tried. Under the direction of new owner Rupert Murdoch, the Wall Street Journal is becoming the paper version of Faux News. Here is their latest nonsense on the Iran NIE: "The Iranian opposition group that first exposed Iran’s nuclear-fuel program said a U.S. intelligence analysis is correct that Tehran shut down its weaponization program in 2003, but claims that the program was relocated and restarted in 2004.
The claim, to be made public today by the National Council for Resistance in Iran, joins a broad pushback by conservative hawks who say the U.S. analysis has wrongly given the impression that Iran’s nuclear-fuel program doesn’t present an urgent threat." Since when is a terrorist group a credible source for anything, let alone one to be used in a mainstream article? The National Council for Resistance in Iran is the MEK lobby in DC. They call themselves the true government of Iran in exile and their president is Maryam Rajavi. Let’s do a MEK/MKO basics crash course:
• During the 1970s, the MeK was accused of conducting several assassinations of US military personnel and civilians working in Iran, and of actively supporting the takeover of the US Embassy in Tehran in 1979. That same year, the MeK helped to overthrow the Shah and install the new Shiite regime led by the Ayatollah Khomeini.
• The Secretary of State has amended the designation, under Executive Order 13224 on terrorist financing, of the Mujahedin-e Khalq, known as the MEK, to add its aliases National Council of Resistance (NCR) and National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). That Executive Order blocks the assets of organizations and individuals linked to terrorism. The decision also clarifies that the designation includes the U.S. representative office of NCRI and all its other offices worldwide, and that the designation of the People’s Mujahedin of Iran (‘PMOI’) as an alias of the MEK includes the PMOI’s U.S. representative office and all other offices worldwide.
• Tehran proposed ending support for Lebanese and Palestinian militant groups and helping to stabilise Iraq following the US-led invasion. Offers, including making its nuclear programme more transparent, were conditional on the US ending hostility. But Vice-President Dick Cheney’s office rejected the plan, the official said. The offers came in a letter, seen by Newsnight, which was unsigned but which the US state department apparently believed to have been approved by the highest authorities. In return for its concessions, Tehran asked Washington to end its hostility, to end sanctions, and to disband the Iranian rebel group the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq and repatriate its members.
So basically, what the Wall Street Journal is saying is that a terrorist group on the US State Department’s list of terrorist organization – who has also killed US citizens and was close to Saddam Hussein – is unhappy with the Iran NIE.
Moreover this same group is close to the Vice President, who chose to protect his friends rather than hand them over to Iran in exchange for…Iran giving up all enrichment activities – the thing that Cheney has claimed is the problem. Do you follow this logic? Does the WSJ not have a fact-checking crew? Is the Wall Street Journal now aiding a terrorist organization by giving them a say in US foreign policy? This is good to know. So next time there is a Saudi Arabia NIE, perhaps the Wall Street Journal can feature al Qaeda as supporting the conservative position. Like I said, you could not make this crap up if you tried. Propaganda news at its finest folks… and the war on terror at its most laughable.
at-Largely
MKO terrorist organization plays an active role in provoking sectarian conflicts between Iraqi people. The group with some terrorist entities has set up headquarters in Camp Ashraf northeast of Baghdad and provides material support to terrorists in Diyala province in addition to holding seminars with some Iraqi tribes and Clan elders in the province. The terrorist group is also engaged in broadcasting news that make the country unstable, when the news say that the United Iraqi Alliance party carried out widespread fraud in Baghdad previous vote and that the party has prevented Alfeli Kurds from voting. MKO at the same time attacks Iraqi national government elected by the people of Iraq. They accuse the police forces and Interior Ministry with putting obstacles before the Alfelian Kurds voting and underline these events will occur in every coming election.
Considerable is how come this terrorist organization finds interest in defending the voting rights of certain categories of the Iraqi people despite the fact that the history of this organization is known for hitting the Iraqi people in the north of Iraq and their bloody hands in massacre of Kurds and beating Iraqi citizens merely because they were passing by the door of their former headquarters based in Andalusia Square and at the same time trying to create a crisis between Iraq and the neighboring countries with false charges especially in the election, when propagating that Iran has sent trucks loaded with forged voting papers to the south of Iraq and Diyala province. However there is no evidence of where these trucks are and why they did not appear in the Iraqi TV channels and why the claimed arrested truck drivers are not shown to public.
These false propagandas MKO makes against the Iraqi elected government is based on nothing but evil terrorist intentions of this terrorist cult and they must be prosecuted for the following reasons:
1- Interfering in Iraq’s affairs, meetings and conferences with terrorist entities within Iraq and support for terrorists, causing the deterioration of the security situation in Iraq.
2- Involvement with the war crimes of the former tyrant, striking the Iraqi people in northern and southern Iraq and hit neighboring countries as Kuwait, Iran and Saudi Arabia.
3- Dissemination of information against the Iraqi people and try to create sectarian strife and sedition between the sons of one people.
4- Discredit the elected government and its Ministry.
5- Issuing newspaper without the consent of the prime minister in Iraq and the Iraqi parliament’s approval.
6- Recruiting some Iraqi journalists, athletes and some tribal elders in Iraq to stand against Iraq and the Iraqi people.
We as Iraqis address the UN Security Council and the Organization for Human Rights and the neighboring countries and multinational forces in Iraq to issue a statement to the Iraqi government by taking out the terrorist organization from Iraq after the prosecution by the Criminal Court of Iraq.
And the Arab League to meddle! In this issue and address all the Arab countries not to accept this terrorist organization on its territory.
Al Najaf News
Iraqi Defense Minister Abdulqader Mohammed al-Obeidi said on Wednesday that the terrorist Mujahideen Khalq Organization (MKO) has been engaged in illegal activities on Iraqi soil.
Al-Obeidi told a press conference, "We have reliable evidence at hand which shows the Organization (MKO outfit) has carried out illegal activities in Iraq."
He said that the takeover of the MKO camp by the Iraqi government can be an instance of sovereignty over Iraq.
"No garrison or military camp in Iraq should be out of Iraqi government’s control," he added.
The official said the MKO has over recent years carried out illegal activities inside Iraq and the Iraqi government will not at all accept such conducts.
He stressed that expulsion of the terrorist MKO from Iraq is legitimate right of the Iraqi government.
The Iraqi government’s move in expelling the MKO elements does not contradict international regulations and the government can do so, said the Iraqi minister, adding that as long as such elements have not been expelled from the country, Baghdad will treat them based on human rights regulations.
