Iran Interlink, March 11 2022:… What links these two is that the MEK was in the process of grooming Bercow to become the MEK’s lobbying replacement for the late David Amess in the UK parliament. Amess lined up among an anti-Iran cabal that included John Bolton and Rudi Giuliani. The MEK has a long history of association with some very unsavoury characters. While not all of them share these personal characteristics, most have been forced out of their official positions or had reputations built on years of corruption and sleaze eventually exposed: Rudi Giuliani is only a recent example.

Maryam Rajavi John Bercow – It Takes One to Know One
For those living in the UK, it should come as no surprise that among the many shoddy failures in the Westminster bubble, former House of Commons Speaker John Bercow has been banned from parliament for life after a bullying inquiry found him guilty. In spite of his effectiveness in his role as Speaker, those close to him, professionally and personally, knew him to be a difficult, unpleasant individual. Among the panel’s findings were that he acted as a “serial bully and serial liar”, his behaviour was a ‘marked abuse of power and authority’, and that “there is ‘no doubt’ that victims were telling the truth”.
It should also be no surprise to observers of Maryam Rajavi and her tragic little cult, the MEK, that these are the characteristics her close associates will also recognise as hers: bullying, lying, abuse of power and authority. Also, that her victims are telling the truth. Maryam Rajavi’s vicious screaming hysterics are famous among her inner circle.

The MEK has a long history of association with some very unsavoury characters. While not all of them share these personal characteristics, most have been forced out of their official positions or had reputations built on years of corruption and sleaze eventually exposed: Rudi Giuliani is only a recent example. After he was voted out as a Member of the European Parliament, Alejo Vidal-Quadras of Spain showed his extreme right-wing views as president of VOX. He channelled finance from the MEK money laundering system into the Vox Party.
The history of the MEK includes many, many of such people. It is true, of course, that Maryam Rajavi cannot pick and choose her associates because decent people will not get involved in her schemes and crimes, not for any amount of money. But certainly the role call of MEK supporters does prove that it takes on to know one as Rajavi’s nasty corruption attracts like-minded people.

International Liberty Association, MEK’s so-called charity breaches rules of the UK Charity Commission
Ebrahim Khodabandeh, March 14 2019:… A charity organisation registered in London called the “International Liberty Association” has launched a widespread campaign under the title “Support the Voice of the People” to collect public donations for a television channel belonging to the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (aka MEK, MKO, NCR, NLA, Rajavi Cult). London is well known for having been a haven for the money laundry activities of the MEK over many years.

MEK’s so-called charity breaches non-political rules of the UK Charity Commission
A charity organisation registered in London called the “International Liberty Association” has launched a widespread campaign under the title “Support the Voice of the People” to collect public donations for a television channel belonging to the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (aka MEK, MKO, NCR, NLA, Rajavi Cult).

Massoud Kalani, a high-ranking member of the MEK and presenter on their satellite television, asking for donations for the cult
This so-called charity organization does not hide the fact that it is supporting the goals of the MEK, a terrorist cult which has not only advocated violence and bloodshed for regime change but killed 12,000 people in Iran since 1981. And through all these years, London has been the centre for the illegal financial activities of the MEK from its bogus charities to having a chain of buildings and even hotels and shops apparently donated to these charities.
London is well known for having been a haven for the money laundry activities of the MEK over many years. Going back to the 1980s and the registered charity organization called “Iran Aid” which had the support of many British politicians and then later proved to be a front group for the MEK set up for deception and fraud. Amazingly the British authorities let this charity operate unchallenged and the MEK opened and registered other charity organizations.
London is well known for having been a haven for the money laundry activities of the MEK over many years
It should be clear to everyone who is familiar with the MEK that the purpose of these registered charities is money laundry. Money is paid as donation by cheques and cash in large sums and then transferred to the UAE (Dubai) for so called charity spending and at that point all trace of the money disappears. The MEK’s charities are registered in the name of low-ranking members of the cult who conveniently vanish if and when there is any problem and then another charity is registered immediately to replace it. The MEK is equally known for its people smuggling as well as money laundry.
Is it customary in the UK that a terrorist group can register a charity to collect donations to be used for extremist agenda?
Is it customary in the UK that a terrorist – or even a political – group can register a charity to collect donations to be used for propaganda for its political – especially extremist – agenda? Does the Charity Commissioner approve such behaviour which violates its own regulations? Certainly, the MEK is not an unknown group. The Charity Commission should ensure that a full investigation is conducted into this blatant breach of its own rules.
