Who are the MEK? Part 12

Who are the MEK? Part 12 In this part, we will learn about Iran’s foreign intelligence estimates and how they seek to destroy the MEK. The majority of people across the world recognise that the Iranian Regime is a violent, totalitarian, dictatorship with no respect for the rights of its people or the rest of the world. However, those people wrongly claim that the Iranian Regime has no viable alternative and that it is, therefore, acceptable to continue doing business with them. The thing is that the Regime has a viable alternative in the form of the oldest, largest, and most popular resistance organization in Iran, which has fought two separate regimes since it was founded in 1965. That is the People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK). In order to help you learn more about the MEK, we have created an in-depth series. In this part, we will learn about how the Iranian Regime seeks to destroy the MEK outside of Iran. The Iranian Regime seeks to eliminate the MEK inside and...

THE MEK’S 10-POINT PLAN FOR A FREE IRAN

THE MEK’S 10-POINT PLAN FOR A FREE IRAN The end is near for the Iranian Regime. Every day, the mullahs are besieged by more crises on both a domestic, regional, and international level. It is clear they cannot survive much longer, as support for the despicable theocracy wanes by the day. And while support for the mullahs is ever-diminishing, support for the Iranian Resistance group, the  People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran ( PMOI/MEK ), headed by MaryamRajavi , is only growing. The majority of the Iranian people and the Iranian diaspora support the MEK and would encourage world leaders to do the same. Currently, Iran is experiencing dire floods that, as of writing, have killed almost 300, but the Iranian Regime has failed to send in rescue workers with aid. Instead, they sent in the suppressive security forces with guns. People have been shot dead for trying to protect their families, homes, and businesses from a natural disaster. Many more have died because ...

Iran news in brief, February 5, 2018 1- EU to Iran Regime: Stop Missile Tests, Assassination Attempts on European Soil The European Union on Monday urged Iran Regime to put an "immediate end" to "unacceptable behavior," including refraining from any further ballistic missiles tests or attempts to assassinate Iranian dissidents on European soil.

The bloc also expressed concern at Iran Regime's role in growing Middle East tensions, including support for groups in Lebanon and Syria and Iran's own forces in Syria. The bloc was also critical of Iran's human rights record, highlighting i...

Khomeini’s evil precedents in Iran 40 year legacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran

Khomeini’s evil precedents in Iran 40 year legacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran The founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ruhollah Khomeini, has set many cruel precedents in Iran. Many of his so-called teachings are still being carried out today and according to one scholar, staying faithful to Khomeini’s ideology has been the litmus test for all political activity in Iran in the last 40 years. Therefore, despite dying only ten years after the founding of his tyrannical regime, one can draw the conclusion that the 40 years of death, destruction and corruption are his legacy. Before the revolution Sayyid Ruhollah Mūsavi Khomeini was born on September 24, 1902 and died on June 1989 at the age of 87. Known as a religious leader or marjah before the revolution, Khomeini refused to use his religious authority to oppose the coup against the pro-democracy government of Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh or the Shah’s crackdown on dissent which led to co...
