Juan Cole, Truthdig, September 09 2019:... This economic and financial blockade was supposed to bring Iran to its knees, push it out of Iraq, Syria and Lebanon, and perhaps (it was hoped by some in Trump’s circles) even pave the way to the overthrow of the Islamic Republic of Iran in favor of the Marxist-Islamic People’s Jihadis (Mohahedin-e Khalq or…

Stephen Gottlieb, WAMC, Morning Edition, January 30 2019:... The MEK has been the darling of the Administration as a potential successor to the mullahs because they both dislike the Iranian regime.

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…

James Carden with Dr. Trita Parsi, The Nation, December 06 2018:... The MeK is of little use if the objective is regime change, due to their immense unpopularity in Iran, the Trump administration seems to believe that they can be helpful for regime collapse and a potential Civil War, mindful of this terrorist organization’s extensive experience in sabotage, terrorism, assassinations,…
