Since August 2014, the US Air Force with the support of a coalition of 19 countries has relentlessly waged an intensified air campaign against Syria and Iraq allegedly targeting the Islamic State brigades.
According to Defense News, over 16,000 airstrikes were carried out from August 2014 to mid January 2015. Sixty percent of the air strikes were conducted by the US Air Force using advanced jet fighter and bombing capabilities (Aaron Mehta, “A-10 Performing 11 Percent of Anti-ISIS Sorties”
While the world’s eyes are focused on ISIS [the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria] and rising tensions in the Middle East, a former terrorist group from Iran is tromping through the halls of Congress, and garnering support from some of America’s most powerful and prominent politicians and officials.
Speaker: “Howard Dean, Ed Rendell, Patrick Kennedy, and many others.”
The group is the People’s Mujahedeen of Iran, or the MEK, in its Persian acronym. It was taken off of the State Department’s
Reported along the peripheries of the Western media, it was reported recently that some 3,000 so-called "moderate rebels" of the "Free Syrian Army" had defected to the "Islamic State" (ISIS). While not the first time so-called "moderates" have crossed over openly to Al Qaeda or ISIS, it is one of the largest crossovers that has occurred.
With them, these 3,000 fighters will bring weapons, cash, equipment, and training provided to them by Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United States, the UK, and
Propaganda or politically-based mind control, is the main method used in the journalism of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO). The Anti-Iran propaganda launched in the group’s websites is companied by archived photos and fake pictures.
Top news on the MKO website include a long list of protests, gatherings and clashes with police all over Iran! It is worth knowing that the so-called news reports are not reflected in any other news media even the mainstream media such as BBC, CNN
In their abortive effort to assassinate another Iranian nuclear scientist, Israeli officials only sustained desperation and disgrace in their dastardly elimination campaign against Iran which was apparently in sync with ISIL inhumane brutalities inside Iraq and Syria.
More alert than ever, security forces are diligently tasked with protecting the lives of the Iranian scientists wherever they are.
A top Iranian military official said on Saturday that in the last two years, “the Zionist entity
Shooters were radicalized in Europe, sent to Syria, returned, have been previously arrested by Western security agencies for terrorism and long on the watch-list of French and other Western intelligence agencies. Yet “somehow” they still managed to execute a highly organized attack in the heart of Europe.
In an all too familiar pattern and as predicted, the shooters involved in the attack in Paris Wednesday, January 7, 2015, were French citizens, radicalized in Europe and exported to Syria to
WMR’s sources in Turkey and Iran are confirming that links have been established between the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and the Iranian exiled terrorist group Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) through Central Intelligence Agency and Israeli Mossad interlocutors.
There have reportedly been personal contacts between the husband-and-wife leadership of the MEK, Massoud and Maryam Rajavi, and the senior leadership of ISIL. These contacts have been authorized by ISIl’s self-proclaimed
During the last two years a number of opinion pieces have appeared in The Hill against Iran. These articles serve the interests and are written by the members and affiliates of a terrorist group known as the Mujahedeen-Khalq Organization (MEK). This group goes by various other names such as PMOI and NCRI and has an elaborate set of front groups and astroturf operations designed to allow them to operate in the U.S. while they were designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the U.S
The MKO’s claims for solidarity with Iranian people or animosity with them?
The Mujahedin-e-Khalq is a title for followers of Maryam Rajavi. The term “Mujahedin” is an Arabic word meaning “freedom fighters”. The Mujahedin has been allegedly fighting against the late shah of Iran and consequently the Islamic Republic that was established after the 1979 revolution in Iran. They claim that they want to liberate the Iranian “People”; the Arabic term “Khalq” means “people”. But do the leaders of
The forgotten history of a group of “Iranian dissidents” being promoted in Western media shows the hypocrisy of the so-called “War on Terror.”
The Associated Press published an article entitled “Iran Dissident: Tehran Continues Nuke Arms Work ” earlier in October. The piece quoted Mujahadeen-e-Khalq (MEK) members, who insist that Iran is developing nuclear weapons.
The claims are rather fantastic, as the leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran have always declared extreme opposition to
Although America, based on the supposition of many scholars of political science and international studies, cherishes the biggest claim all over the world against terrorism, the footprints of American spy services and their accomplices could be obviously detected in many terrorist attacks and acts of violence in the globe.
More often, the policy of fighting terrorism became part of the American State’s tasks after the Cold War or the solution of the problem of the bipolar world so that U.S
There is a group of Jewish American billionaires who are apparently doing their best to make sure than negotiations with Iran go nowhere in the mistaken belief that they are doing what is best for Israel. And they would also appear to be assisted in their efforts by the White House, which is at the same time claiming that it wants the talks to be successful.
The odd relationship is currently playing out in a Manhattan courtroom where the Justice Department is seeking to squash a lawsuit that
Last week, members of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), the ruthless militant group currently marauding through Iraq, reportedly blew up the tomb of the Prophet Yunus. The burial site of Yunus, commonly known to many Christians as the biblical figure Jonah, was located in the modern-day city of Mosul (once the biblical city of Nineveh), and was seen by many archeologists and religious scholars as an ancient — and precious — religious artifact. Now, reports indicate, it is little
Why are Newt Gingrich, Joe Lieberman and Patrick Kennedy hanging with members of a terrorist cult?
Hamid Babaei, a counselor for the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations, has written a column published July 10 in USA Today newspaper criticizing the US officials for supporting the MEK terrorists.
What follows is the full text of his column, titled “Big Money Buys Powerful Friends”:
Several well-known American political figures appeared at a rally in Paris
On July 3, 1988, in an unprovoked move, US carrier USS Vincennes fired two missiles at an Iranian passenger plane, Iran Air Flight 655, which was on route to Dubai. All 290 innocent civilians were killed. The United States did not apologize or admit to wrongdoing. Washington has always maintained that the shooting down of the passenger plane was an accident.
But was it? The Vincennes' crew, without visual confirmation, fired at the Iranian passenger airliner ‘believing’ it to be an F14
The heartrending photos and footages of Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIS) mass killings and beheadings shocks every human being. The group claimed that they executed 1700 Iraqi soldiers, posting grisly photos of a mass execution in Tikrit as evidence.
The ISIS widespread crimes against humanity have drew condemnations from around the world, including UN Security Council, UN Human Rights chief, Human Rights Watch, United States, and the Arab League.
The European countries, on the other
The legacy of Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein appears in a more dangerous group called Islamic Iraqi State and the Levant (Daesh in Arabic).
ISIS was formed in April 2013 and grew out of al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI). It has since been disavowed by al-Qaeda, but become one of the main jihadist groups fighting government forces in Syria and is making military gains in Iraq according to BBC.
Correspondents say it appears to be surpassing al-Qaeda as the world's most dangerous jihadist group. Some
Former White House hopeful and longtime lawmaker Ron Paul says United State President Barack Obama’s recent major foreign policy speech was a “disappointment” to anyone holding out for change from the current administration.
Responding to the president’s recent address at the US Military Academy at West Point, New York, the former congressman for Texas wrote on his website this week that Obama has refused to acknowledge any precedents concerning the impact of American interventionism, and
The Mojahedin Khalq (MEK) is busy preparing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on an annual ‘June 21st’ rally which celebrates its failed coup d’état in 1981. This year, as every year, the MEK will be paying for both audience and speakers alike to attend.
The show convinces nobody. For years the MEK has survived solely on a hollow propaganda campaign which tracks and mirrors Neoconservative and Israeli interests. To please its Western backers the MEK has, over the years, supported
The Wall Street Journal’s opinion pages have long served as a welcoming home to pundits toeing a hawkish line on Iran, Iraq and a laundry list of foreign policy challenges facing the United States. Tuesday, the Journal’s editorial board exclusively published details of a report provided by the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), an exiled Iranian opposition group that until less than two years ago was designated a terrorist group in the United States and Canada.
