In a sign of how even the world’s conservative governments increasingly refuse to support the People’s Muhajeddin Organization of Iran (MKO), an international conference sponsored by France’s Nicolas Sarkozy included Iranian victims of what many say is nothing but a terrorist “cult.”
Considering that fighting terrorism was the excuse for the US invasion of Iraq, it was expected that terrorist elements, including MKO aka MEK/PMOI forces, would be confronted. But not only was there no confrontation, but they were also supported, and even now that the Iraqi government is determined to expel the MKO from the country, the US and Western countries are trying to hinder the move,” Hejazi added.
