Israel's Terrorist SuperPAC

Media_httpiimgurcomyw_nyeji

The United States has secretly financed and trained the Iranian exile group, People's Mujahedin of Iran, which the State Department has officially listed as a terrorist organisation, Seymour Hersh reported for The New Yorker magazine. The EU removed the group from its own terrorist list in 2009. The secret training would have begun some time during the Bush presidency in 2005, according to Mr Hersh's sources.

The organisation is known under several different names and acronyms: Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), People’s Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI), and the National Liberation Army of Iran (NLA). The group's front organisation is the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), spearheaded by MEK leader Massoud Rajavi's wife, Maryam Rajavi.

Terroristien pimeä kassa

Media_httpiimgurcomsj_oxwek

The New Yorkerin tähtireportteri Seymour Hersh kertoo Yhdysvaltain rahoittaneen ja kouluttaneen salaa iranilaisten maanpakolaisten järjestöä nimeltä Kansan mujahedin, joka on Yhdysvaltain virallisella terroristijärjestöjen listalla. EU poisti järjestön omalta terroristilistaltaan vuonna 2009. Ryhmän jäsenten koulutus olisi alkanut George Bushin presidenttikaudella vuonna 2005.

Järjestö tunnetaan useilla eri nimillä ja lyhenteillä: Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), People’s Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI) ja National Liberation Army of Iran (NLA). Ryhmän peiteorganisaationa toimii “Iranin kansallinen vastarintaneuvosto” (NCRI), jonka keulakuvana esiintyy MEK:n johtajan Massoud Rajavin vaimo Maryam Rajavi.

Washington's Favorite Terrorists

Media_httpiimgurcomxt_dbaky

Numerous prominent politicians from both major political parties in the United States have not only been enthusiastically promoting and advocating on behalf of a designated terrorist organization, the People's Mujahedin of Iran (MEK/MKO/PMOI), but they have been receiving substantial amounts of cash from that terrorist group as they do so. There is only one list of "designated terrorist organizations" under the law, and MEK is every bit as much on that list as Kashimiri Lashkar-e-Taiba or Al-Qaeda are. Yet you will never, ever see those politicians being indicted by Obama's Department of Justice for their far more extensive -- and paid -- involvement with MEK.

Parrots in Parliament: Politicians Jump on Terrorist Bandwagon

Media_httpiimgurcoma3_kambb

Maryam Rajavi, one of the leaders of the Iranian terrorist organisation, People's Mujahedin Organisation of Iran (PMOI), was on a visit to Finland on 11-12 March 2010. Ms Rajavi met with many Finnish politicians, public officials, church leaders, and other public figures.

I wrote several letters to MPs, ministers, and officials urging them to reject any contact with Ms Rajavi and her representatives. Some of the responses I got were less than satisfactory, while others served as evidence of the sane judgment of many of our elected representatives.

Maryam Rajavi should be in jail

Media_httpwwwkauppine_omwgf

I wrote several letters to Finnish politicians and public officials urging them not to have any contact with the Iranian terrorist leader Maryam Rajavi and her representatives. Below is my letter to former Conservative MEP Piia-Noora Kauppi, who has a long-standing relationship to Ms Rajavi's organisation. Ms Kauppi is now Managing Director of the Federation of Finnish Financial Services.

Dear Piia-Noora Kauppi,

I am writing to you to express my deepest concern about the recent visit to Finland of Maryam Rajavi, one of the leaders of the People's Mujahedin Organisation of Iran (PMOI). I have learned that you have cooperated with organisations that Ms Rajavi represents for some time. I wish you would hold human rights foremost in your mind when considering your attitude toward organisations that use or have used terrorism to further their political aims.

Finnish MPs fall under Rajavi's spell

Media_httpwwwiraninte_htquk

Finland's political elite has fallen under the spell of the Rajavi cult. The Iranian terrorist leader Maryam Rajavi has ensnared legislators in several countries and the European Parliament. When two MKO terrorists were detained in Finland, few really knew what the group stood for.

Before her "charm offensive" targeting political leaders in Europe and elsewhere, Maryam Rajavi ordered her cult members to kill their own people and to attack the Iraqi Kurds at the behest of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. See the Al Jazeera documentary about the MKO.

Two cult leaders held summit in Finland

Media_httpwwwtsfionli_zezox

Archbishop Jukka Paarma of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland met with Maryam Rajavi, leader of the CIA-backed Iranian terrorist organisation, People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI), in Turku on 12 March 2010. Rajavi called on the Finnish Lutheran Church to support PMOI's base in Iraq, Camp Ashraf, the church reported.

"Around 3,400 PMOI members are living in difficult conditions in Camp Ashraf," Paarma told local daily Turun Sanomat. "Representatives of different churches have written letters about the issue. I will meet with some ministers of the Finnish government over the weekend, let us see what can be done about the matter," the archbishop said.

The church's press office reported that the goal of Rajavi's "National Resistance Council of Iran" is "to develop Iran into a democratic state that respects human rights, and where religion and state are separated." Turun Sanomat did do some googling and recalled that PMOI was, until very recently, on the EU's list of terrorist organisations.

The church quoted Rajavi as saying that religious leaders should "uphold universal ethical values." Rajavi expressed a wish that she could one day receive the archbishop in a Christian church in Tehran. Maybe she will invite the archbishop to PMOI's parade? The Finnish Lutheran Church has a long tradition of blessing military parades.

Iranian HR defenders may face terror charges

Iran's Committee of Human Rights Reporters (CHRR) has faced unprecedented pressure in recent months. Many of its members have been threatened and arrested. Authorities have demanded that CHRR shut down its website.

The authorities are trying to force CHRR members to confess to having cooperated with the terrorist organization, People's Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK/MKO). The United States and Canada have designated PMOI as a terrorist organization.

CHRR is an independent organization that reports about human rights violations in Iran. The organization has been reporting about violations of the rights of political prisoners, children, women, students, and other members of society.

No mercy

Media_httpiimgurcomw6_mnpir

As the Iranian authorities vowed "no mercy" to its opponents -- i.e., the people, -- the regime herded thousands of its supporters to state-sponsored rallies. As expected, there were chants to execute the leaders of the opposition Green Movement.

Reza Pahlavi, son of Iran's deposed Shah, urged countries to withdraw their ambassadors from Tehran to protest against the regime's bloody crackdown. He noted the "revolutionary atmosphere" in Iran, saying that people wanted a secular democracy.

At the same time, a group of British MPs, the "British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom," issued a statement parroting the propaganda of the "Rajavi cult." Alas, the Iranian revolution is finally here, yet nobody wants Rajavi to lead it.

Venezuela blamed the US for "destabilizing Iran" by instigating violent protests there. Hugo Chavez's Foreign Ministry condemned the destabilization attempts "by the US government against the government and people of Iran."

Meanwhile, five people with the same surname as that of the speaker of Iran's parliament, Ali Larijani, were reported to have entered Canada on 30 December 2009...
