Jamal Abdi, The Iranian (Iranian.com), May 27 2019:... We know well the crowd behind the attacks – from Mark Dubowitz, the architect of Trump’s “maximum pressure” sanctions who heads the hardline pro-Israel organization “Foundation for Defense of Democracies,” to so-called analysts at John Bolton’s former think tank, to hardline Iranian diaspora social media accounts backed by inauthentic “bot armies” that…

Robert Aziz, Concord Monitor, May 26 2019:... For over a decade Bolton has been a well-paid supporter of the Mujahideen-e Khalq (MeK), a cultish Iranian terrorist organization that had first opposed the shah.

Mehdi Khalaji, The Washington Post, May 24 2019:... MEK feed Trump Admin’s fantasy. John Bolton, Rudolph W.

Ebrahim Khodabandeh, Iran Interlink, May 24 2019:... Bolton believes that Massoud (or Maryam) Rajavi of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK, MKO, Rajavi cult), just like Ahmed Chalabi during the war against Iraq, can be beneficial in creating excuses and repeating the White House’s wishes under the banner of a so-called opposition group White House crumbling under the weight of Bolton’s…

Mazda Parsi, Nejat Society, May 23 2019:... “Bolton’s unrelenting drive to attack Iran and his unstinting support for the MEK can only lead to one conclusion: 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,” Khodabandeh states.
