… Describing MKO/MEK/PMOI as “bizarre and brutal” with “plenty of American blood on its hands, as well as that of thousands of Iranians killed while the group was a strike force serving [former Iraqi dictator] Saddam Hussein” during his war on Iran in the 1980s, US-based magazine Politico revealed in a Saturday report that former New York City’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former …
Press accounts of MeK/MKO/PMOI support by Giuliani and these others often treat their ties as a curiosity or, at most, some kind of peccadillo, because the group was taken off the State Department list in 2012.

Mr. Giuliani for instance, he was paid to deliver speeches in 2011 and 2012 defending a cultlike Iranian exile group/MKO/MEK/PMOI that was on the State Department’s list of terrorist organizations.
