Halt! No more fake news by Iran regime!



Halt! No more fake news by Iran regime!

Claas Relotius, a mendacious journalist who was able to make public opinion and media giants vulnerable to the release of fake news. Consequently the German Journalists’ Union (DJU), called the case “the biggest fraud scandal in journalism since the Hitler diaries” that Germany’s Stern magazine published in 1983 and were later found to be forgeries. Undoubtedly, when the demonizing campaign against the MEK/PMOI by media such as Guardian, Independent, MSNBC, Al Jazeera and English Channel 4 would be disclosed, the situation would become even more abhorrent. 

The Iranian regime has a long history of spreading fake news aimed at demonizing the pivotal organization of the Iranian resistance, PMOI/MEK. As a specific we can point to the spreadof fake news by these media about Somayeh Mohammadi. These fake news claimed that she was forcibly kept in the PMOI, the organization that she is a member of. Somayeh has rejected the claims based on verifiable documents in her book.

THE MEK AT ASHRAF 3

  Ashraf 3 - Albania THE MEK AT ASHRAF 3 INU - Back in 2013, the small nation of Albania began to take in the first Iranian dissidents from the People's Mojahedin of Iran ( PMOI/MEK ) and offer them refuge after the years of hell they had endured in Camp Ashraf and Camp Liberty inside Iraq. After a three-year-long transfer process, some 3,000 MEK members are safely housed in special accommodation in Tirana, provided by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees. This greatly angered the Iranian Regime, who had spent years trying to assassinate the MEK in Iran and in Iraq, where they were supposed to be protected. Now the MEK, the democratic opposition to the Regime would be able to largely live in peace and safety, which would only allow them to focus more energy on bringing freedom and democracy to the Iranian People.
