Commentators scoffed after it emerged that two lobbyists had visited Albania to praise the terrorist MEK. Clearly, they point out, the MEK can no longer find more significant lobbyists who are prepared to sacrifice their possible future careers and have been reduced to employing people like Col. Wes Martin and these women to have words put into their mouths by the MEK …
Following the death of Mohammad Ali Jaberzadeh Ansari (aka Ghasem), Maryam Rajavi’s speech drew criticism as she offered her condolences not to the deceased’s family and friends, but to Massoud Rajavi. ‘You can’t offer condolences to a dead person’ wrote most commentators. Instead of attending the funeral in Paris, Maryam Rajavi went to Albania to firefight the chaos …
Col. Wes Martin wrote attacking Anne and Massoud Khodabandeh in The Hill. Several Farsi commentators dismissed this as an attempt by the MEK/MKO/PMOI to boost their Google ratings. Further analysis points out that if President Trump dumps the MEK (which he will) it can be blamed on the ex-members. This represents the usual pattern for the MEK; creating a scapegoat …
Farsi articles about the MEK/MKO/PMOI have noted that the group has been silent about Trump’s Muslim ban and other issues, contrary to the usual habit of commenting on everything under the sun. Instead they have been on overdrive to insist that President Trump will attack Iran very soon and there is no alternative and no way back. Apart from the usual commentary about their mercenary habits which …
Reports from Albania say that after the Albanian foreign minister visited Iran and held talks with officials there, the whole MEK/MKO/PMOI has fallen into a panic. Farsi commentators say ‘this reminds us of when Iran and Iraq got together’. The panic became so critical that a written message in the form of a letter from Massoud Rajavi (regardless whether he is dead or alive), had to be read to the members …
In Tirana, the MEK have printed and distributed maps and plans for the members. These show that the MEK/MKO/PMOI is purportedly planning to build a replica of Camp Ashraf in Albania. The MEK claims they will be given the land soon by the Albanian government and that the Albanians have got no say in this ‘because the Americans and NATO have ordered it and they will not be able to say no’. The plans …
… News from Albania this week reveals that Maryam Rajavi has resorted to sending not only high ranking MEK/MKO/PMOI enforcers, but also NCRI members, specifically Manouchehr Hezarkhani, in an attempt to calm people down amongst growing dissent. The interesting slant of this visit was that Hezarkhani told the people in Tirana ‘whatever problems you experienced in Iraq was because it was a …
In an interview with VOA’s Mehdi Falahati, an individual named Morteza Sadeghi claimed that the man called Ali Motamed, whose killing last year in the Netherlands had been linked to drugs and crime, was in fact somebody else. Sadeghi said the dead man was Mohammad Reza Kolahi who was responsible for blowing up the Hezb Jomhouri headquarters in Iran in 1981 and that this meant …
The reaction to an open letter to Donald Trump from thirty “members of the Iranian opposition, including human rights activists and former political prisoners” has been quite precisely divided. Only the MEK/MKO/PMOI felt jealous and wished they had also jumped on this bandwagon. They even got frontman Ali Safavi a slot on Fox News to say as much. However, every other Iranian person, personality …
Several people commented on the MEK’s photoshopped promotion of the flag-waving activities mentioned above. They say, what Maryam Rajavi really meant by her announcement in Tirana of the ‘Political Assault’, is actually an advertising campaign to find a buyer for her group. This buyer could be linked to Syria or any other area of conflict, she doesn’t care. But apparently, she has …
