Paul R. Pillar, Lobe Log, July 24 2018:... The bankruptcy of the administration’s thinking on this subject is underscored by the role that the cult-cum-terrorist-group known as the Mujahedin-e Khalq (or MEK)—which was invited to Pompeo’s speech—plays in that thinking. The MEK has American blood on its hands, and it lost almost all support it once had in Iran when it… 2018/07/24
IRNA, New York, July 24 2018:... The Islamic Republic of Iran condemns in the strongest terms the illegal measures of the United States Government against Iranian people including through supporting and financing of MKO as terrorist group, and considers this unlawful action in violation of international law, the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations as well as… 2018/07/24

Shqiptarja, July 23 2018:... One day after the media in Tirana distributed an email from the Mojahed resident Somayeh Mohammadi, addressed to Minister Xhafaj, accusing her father, Mostafa Mohammadi, of coming to Albania to carry out acts against the Iranian group, her father has reacted. A copy of a letter that the father of the girl, Mostafa Mohammadi, has sent to… 2018/07/23
TPZ, Tirana, Albania, July 23 2018:... We’re Mostafa Mohammadi and Mahboubeh Hamze. We are the parents of Somayeh Mohammadi. We have lived in Canada since 1994. Our daughter was kidnapped by the Iranian Mojahedin terrorist organization in 1997. She was abducted together with our son Mohammad Mohammedi.

Mahsa Rouhi, Foreign Policy, July 21 2018:... Even if the current turmoil did lead to regime collapse—as unlikely as that is—the forces that Bolton, Rudy Giuliani, and some others hope to see in power, such as the exile group Mujahideen-e-Khalq (MEK), are the least likely to take the helm. The MEK has no support base inside Iran; in fact, its members are viewed as… 2018/07/21
Ali Akbar Rastgou, Aawa Association, Germany, July 21 2018:... Your participation in this event as the President of Albania, nor benefits the people of Iran, neither the refugees of the MEK stuck in Iraq, neither the MEK members living in Albania. The only one who would benefit from your participation, are Mrs. Maryam Rajavi and her MEK leadership! As with many… 2018/07/21
Press TV, July 21 2018:... The Mossad claim puts Israel next to Saudi Arabia, which Tehran says has been colluding with the MKO and providing it with financial support since the Iraqi imposed war on Iran in the 1980s.

Iran Interlink, July 20 2018:... This week another MEK member, Hassan Shahbaz, separated from the cult. His main message is that “we have been living as slaves for decades. Nobody would help us, and we had no access to anything. We were totally at the mercy of the internal laws of MEK.”. Other writing in Farsi is about the meeting on… 2018/07/20
Gazeta Impakt, Tirana, Albania, July 20 2018:... In the late 1990s, Somayeh Mohammadi, aged seventeen, and her brother Mohammad Mohammadi, were deceptively lured from their family home in Canada to a Mojahedin Khalq (MEK) camp in Iraq for a short visit. Once there, they were unable to leave. Their parents, Mostafa and Mahboubeh, travelled to Iraq on several occasions to try… 2018/07/20
Trita Parsi, New York Review of Books, July 20 2018:... Commonly called a cult by most observers, the MEK systematically abuses its members, most of whom are effectively captives of the organization, according to Human Rights Watch (HRW). Regardless of its delisting by then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton—a political calculation on her part since many senior Democrats, as well as Republicans, had… 2018/07/20
Nahal Toosi, Politico, July 20 2018:... One Iranian diaspora faction that has supported many Trump policies is the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, a group with leftist roots that the U.S. previously listed as a terrorist outfit. But the MEK has few backers in Iran, even though it has major defenders among Trump’s aides and confidants. Among those who’ve spoken at MEK events are Trump’s… 2018/07/20
