TRT, February 16 2019:... The MEK (Mojahedin Khalq, Maryam Rajavi cult) fought alongside Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. That led to them being branded traitors by the Iranian government, who executed thousands of political opponents, including MEK supporters, at the end of the war in 1988. The US State Department added the MEK to its list of terrorist organisations in 1997, and the exact…

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has responded to US President Donald Trump's comments about the 1979 Iran Revolution by urging Trump "to rethink failed US policy after 40 years of wrong choices".

Mazda Parsi, Nejat Society, February 14 2019:... It’s the dystopian substance of Oceania which fits so accurately with the Mujahedin Khalq Organization. It is 2019 and members of the MKO are living in an Oceania-like world. This means that ruling system in Oceania is not only a government but also a life style that removes individuality from human beings and make…

Anne Khodabandeh (Singleton), February 10 2019:... Her desperate efforts to stay visible – parading on stage in glamorous outfits before paid speakers and audience – expose her ego rather than her leadership.

Borzou Dargahi, Independent, February 05 2019:... MEK, a bizarre but influential Iranian political cult dedicated to overthrowing the government in Tehran. The group has cultivated strong ties to the Trump administration and others in Washington, as well as to Saudi Arabia, Iran’s arch-nemesis.

Robert Fantina, Counter Punch, January 28 2019:...And what of French support for MEK? This follows the hypocrisy usually demonstrated by the United States. France, one of the signatories of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), condemned the U.S. withdrawal from this international agreement, and French government officials are looking for a means to circumvent the threatened U.S. sanctions if…

Anne Khodabandeh (Singleton), Balkans Post, January 27 2019:... The Poland summit is an indication that top officials in the Trump administration like former CIA chief Mike Pompeo and Trump’s Security Advisor John Bolton now feel confident they can create Trump’s foreign policy for him. The MEK’s use as a regime change tool is not new, but it was a speech made by…

Ebrahim Khodabandeh, Januray 26 2019:... The MEK which has a track record, from triggering the manufactured nuclear crises against Iran to advocating for severe sanctions against the Iranian people and advertising regime change, which are all dictated from the White House, entered the political game of Marzieh Hashemi by advertising in its propaganda outlets the hidden wishes of the Trump administration. The…

Tehran Times, January 13 2019:... Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has told Europeans that making accusations against Iran won’t absolve them of the responsibility for harboring the terrorist Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) - also called Mujahideen-e Khalq (MEK) -- who has murdered tens of thousands Iranians. “Europeans, incl Denmark, Holland & France, harbor MEK—who killed 12000 Iranians & abetted Saddam’s…
