Lachlan Markay, Daily Beast, May 20 2019:... Source of MEK cash in London. According to domain registration data, the Iran Focus website was maintained by Mohammad Hanif Jazayeri, whom the NCRI website identifies as a spokesperson, until at least 2015, when the site anonymized that registration information. Neither Iran Focus nor Jazayeri responded to questions about the news outlet’s relationship with… 2019/05/20

Ali Harb, Middle East Eye, May 19 2019:... Speaking at a 2017 gathering for Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), an Iranian opposition group that was on the US list of terrorist groups as recently as 2012, Bolton went so far as to promise the Iranian government would fall by 2019 with Trump in office. Bolton MEK Iran Policy at odds with Trump Iranian MEK…

Iran Interlink, May 17 2019:... Batul Soltani has written a piece with the title ‘Dreams of a sixty-six-year-old woman and her dead husband’. Soltani says Rajavi is delusional. She tells MEK members that ‘the Americans are supporting us and there will be a war and when the Americans win they will appoint me as the queen’. Only mad cult members would…

Dan Spinelli, Mother Jones, May 17 2019:... The MEK terrorists supported the Iranian Revolution and were cheerleaders for the takeover of the American embassy in Tehran, which led to the kidnapping of more than 50 American citizens for over a year, but ultimately broke with the ruling clerics and went into exile. The group is considered by some Iran experts to be a cult and, for more than…

The New York Times, May 15 2019:... Bolton's Alternative is Mujahedeen Khalq, M.E.K.. Tensions between the United States and Iran have sharply increased. John Bolton, the national security adviser, has long pushed for regime change in Iran. One of his chosen replacements is the dissident group Mujahedeen Khalq, known as M.E.K. Bolton Vs. Zarif On MEK Link to the source Skeptical U.S.…

Whitney Webb, Mint Press News, May 14 2019:... The U.S. Department of Transportation is currently headed by Elaine Chao, who was paid $50,000 for a five-minute speech to the Iranian exile group, Mujahedeen-e-Khalq (MEK), known to actively seek regime change for Iran. Other top U.S. officials, such as Bolton, have also been paid hefty sums for appearances at MEK events, where they have openly…

Massoud Khodabandeh, Iranian.com, May 14 2019:... MEK operatives, brought from Albania, will be deployed to carry out false flag ops that can be blamed on Iran – such as a suicide attack. Albania is now home to the Iranian Mojahedin-e Khalq terrorist cult (MEK) and John Bolton has long believed he can use the MEK to facilitate regime change in Iran. One of those ways is…

Ebrahim Khodabandeh, May 13 2019:... Since I left the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK, MKO, Rajavi terrorist cult) and came back to Iran in 2003, I have realized that this cult is now much more hated by Iranians than the Tudeh Party, and these Iranians include every opposition to the Islamic Republic inside and outside the country. The MEK assassinated thousands of…

Alexander Azadgan, Sputnik International, May 11 2019:... Let’s be frank here, France holds one of the worst terrorist groups in modern times. They are called MKO or MEK (Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization). They are based in Paris; they are an anti-Iran terrorist group who have been known to kill American citizens in the 1960s and 1970s in Iran. France has hosted them and to me, it is appalling that Iran…

Dan Spinelli, Mother Jones, May 10 2019:... Bolton once argued for a preemptive military strike to wipe out Iran’s nuclear program and received $40,000 in 2016 to speak before the Mujahideen-e-Khalq, a radical anti-regime organization formerly designated as a terrorist group by the United States. “The regime in Tehran needs to be overthrown at the earliest opportunity!” he told attendees at one MEK event. Bolton has his own proxy…

Paul Iddon, The New Arab, May 09 2019:... The Trump administration, despite what John Bolton's dalliances with the cultist Iranian MEK opposition group might have suggested, has clarified that it is not actually pursuing regime change in Iran. Rather, it appears to want Tehran to make more concessions, on its nuclear programme and other issues, before returning to the negotiating table. Dangers of destroying…

Narges Mortazavi, Independent, May 08 2019:... Similarly, in 2017, at the gathering of Iranian opposition group Mujahedeen-e Khalq or MEK, Bolton said the policy of the United States should be “the overthrow of the mullahs’ regime in Tehran.” John Bolton was one of the main architects of the 2003 invasion of Iraq by George W Bush. And today he seems to be…

Russia Today, May 07 2019:... The Mossad doesn’t have the most trustworthy record when it comes to intelligence on Iran. It was likely the Mossad who, in 2004, passed fabricated documents to Iranian opposition group the Mujahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) which falsely portrayed Iran’s civilian nuclear energy program. Mossad MEK Iran. That Secret Iranian ‘Nuclear Facility’ You Just Found? Not So Much Link to…

Joshua Keating, The Slate, May 07 2019:... Bolton, who has given paid speeches to the controversial Iranian opposition group M.E.K., has long advocated regime change in Iran. As Dexter Filkins’ recent New Yorker profile of the national security adviser explained, President Donald Trump, a skeptic about military intervention, may be less enthusiastic about that strategy. MEK Iran and John Bolton regime change Noises John…

Kyle Drennen, MRC News Busters, May 07 2019:... Rudy Giuliani and John Bolton have spoken at gatherings sponsored by the Iranian MEK . The MEK is a terrorist organization. The Iranian MEK gives you money to appear at these speeches, and you talk about regime change in Iran. And Bolton and Rudy Giuliani have both been deeply tied into the Iranian…

Nejat Society, May 05 2019:... Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO/ MEK/PMOI/ Cult of Rajavi) should be considered as part of the B-team. Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif accused a ‘B-Team’ of pushing the US towards “disaster” by clashing with Iran. “President Trump believes putting pressure, bullying, will bring us to the negotiating table so he can make this ideal deal…

Iran Interlink, May 03 2019:... The main issue in Albania has been the closure of the UNHCR office in Tirana and withdrawal of RAMSA charity support for the dissociated MEK members. Commentators say it is ridiculous that Rajavi is so excited about it that she is claiming the MEK closed the UNHCR office as if they had overthrown the Iranian government. …

Massoud Khodabandeh, Lobe Log, May 03 2019:... Hillary Clinton did not take money from the MEK while it was listed as a terrorist entity. And taking the group off the U.S. terrorist list, though controversial at the time due to the MEK’s own well-funded pressure campaign, was not wrong, as it enabled the UNHCR to relocate the members to the safety of…

Scott Peterson, The Christian Science Monitor, May 02 2019:... The MEK was removed from the U.S. terrorism list in 2012, in no small part due to a campaign by dozens of former senior U.S. officials, who received tens of thousands of dollars in speaker’s fees that experts say were secretly bankrolled by Saudi Arabia and Israel. Pro-MEK speakers included Mr. Giuliani and John…

Press TV, May 01 2019:... Bolton had been promoting the notorious and deadly anti-Iran terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, MEK, Rajavi cult) as “viable opposition” and an alternative to the establishment in the Islamic Republic. Zarif also attached another image captured from a profile published by The New Yorker on Monday that detailed Bolton’s idiosyncrasies, including by citing a former senior advisor…
