The Iranian Resistance calls for adoption of binding decision by the UN Security Council to provide security for the residents of Camp Liberty until they are all resettled in third countries<\/p>\n
A chain of hysterical reactions by the mullahs\u2019 regime and its operatives to the introduction of a Special Adviser to the UN Secretary General for the relocation of Camp Hurriya residents outside of Iraq, reaffirms the fact that the Iranian regime not only has no desire for the transfer of Camp Liberty residents to third countries, but stops at nothing to stonewall the process.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mrs Maryam Rajavi has repeatedly declared that mullahs\u2019 true objective is not to have PMOI members depart from Ashraf or Iraq, but rather to physically annihilate them or have them surrender. There is no third option. (Speech by Maryam Rajavi at Grand Gathering of Iranians in Paris on 22 June 2013; Speech by Maryam Rajavi at a conference at the UN Headquarters in Geneva on 19 September 2013; Speech by Maryam Rajavi at an international conference in Paris on 19 October 2013)<\/p>\n
1. In a replica story, the Iranian regime\u2019s media angrily re-published the report on the Secretary General\u2019s Special Advisor, writing: \u201cBy appointing the former deputy U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security as his special advisor on issues regarding the relocation of PMOI members, Ban Ki-moon has, in effect, disregarded all crimes committed by this group in Iran and Iraq. He has tasked Jane Holl Lute with finding new places to relocate the PMOI.\u201d (Fars, IRGC news agency and JomhouryEslami daily – January 7)<\/p>\n
2. The regime\u2019s media wrote elsewhere: \u201cThis measure by the UN was immediately adopted after the most recent attack on Camp Liberty. Given that third countries are not willing to accept this cult, it seems that convincing the UN and Western countries to pay attention to the situation of this grouplet in Camp Liberty, and the acceleration of their acceptance by third countries, will require the leaders of this group to follow a strategy of trying to atrract sympathy. In this regard, the PMOI would not at all dislike being attacked in Camp Liberty, and to sacrifice a few PMOI members so that the pictures and news can be widely broadcasted to help convince Europe and U.S. to remove PMOI members from Iraq and resettle them in Europe and US.\u201d (Bulletin News and Jam News – January 7) This is an obvious scenario to increase the criminal attacks against Camp Liberty residents.
3. Speaking on the same subject, Nozar Shafiee, a member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of the mullahs\u2019 Majlis, said: “This measure by the UN to protect the PMOI will encourage them to increase terrorist activities. As such, this is contrary to the United Nations\u2019 general objective to preserve international peace and security. The presence of \u2018Monafeqin\u2019 (PMOI) in third countries will definitely be a mistake. Countries must refrain from accepting this terrorist group in order to strengthen their relations with Tehran.” (Iranian regime\u2019s parliament news agency – 13 January 2013)<\/p>\n
4. A lengthy article published on the website of a state-run News Network TV wrote on January 14: “Ban Ki-moon has mandated Ms. Jane Holl Lute to find a new place to resettle the PMOI. The UN was established to help preserve international peace and security and to counter anything that might challenge the order and security of the international community, not to find shelter for a gangsters and terrorists. Siding with this group will tarnish the reputation of this organization and the UN Secretary-General.”
5. As reiterated by regime\u2019s media, among the main objectives of regime\u2019s Foreign Minister\u2019s trip to countries in the region was to prevent acceptance of Camp Liberty residents. Speaking on the subject, National Security and Foreign Relations parliamentary committee member Mohammad Hassan Asfari, who accompanied the Foreign Minister, said: “In his meeting with the Jordanian authorities, Zarif stated Iran\u2019s position regarding the acceptance of PMOI members.” (Iranian Intelligence Ministry\u2019s Mehr news agency – January 17)<\/p>\n
He also emphasized: \u201cIn the trip to Oman, a meeting was held with the monarch, the foreign minister, and the prime minister. In this meeting, the Islamic Republic stressed that Oman ought not to accept the presence of \u2018Monafeqin\u2019 in its country.\u201d (Khan-e Mellat website, affiliated with the regime\u2019s Majlis \u2013 January 19)<\/p>\n
The mullahs\u2019 regime’s media also wrote that in his trip to Baghdad, one of the most important tasks of the Foreign Minister had to do with \u201cthe PMOI and settling the issue of this cult\u201d (Bulletin News, January 14).<\/p>\n
6. The Iranian regime has tasked its ambassadors and representatives in different countries \u2013 especially in Europe \u2013 to warn the authorities of countries they are in against accepting the PMOI members of Camp Liberty and to warn them that such measures would endanger political and economic relations with the Iranian regime. Through passing false and misleading information to the authorities of these countries, they depict the transfer of PMOI members to these countries as cause for insecurity, disturbance and terrorist activities.<\/p>\n
7. Last October the Iranian regime\u2019s media wrote: “Following the news about the admission of 97 by Germany, groups formed by deserters of this organization wrote letters to the Koln authorities and German officials reminding them of violent activities by members of this group and the need to control them, and informed these officials about the names of some of the organizations in Germany \u2018that are active as front organizations for Monafeqin\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is clear that the authors of these acts are the intelligence agents who shed crocodile tears for Liberty residents and accuse \u201cPMOI leadership\u201d of stalling their transfer to outside of Iraq.
8. On September 12, Haghighatpour, Deputy Chair of the Security and Foreign Policy Committee of parliament, said: \u201cI hope the whole world will be cleansed of the PMOI contamination.\u201d (Tasnim news agency, affiliated with the Qods Force)<\/p>\n
9. On September 13, Asfari, a member of this committee said: \u201cIran will break off relations with any country that gives residence to the PMOI.\u201d (Iran\u2019s state-run TV)<\/p>\n
10. On September 14, IRGC Brigadier General Esmail Koathari, another member of this committee said: \u201cNo country is allowed to accept them as a whole that would enable them to maintain their solid organization. We shall follow this up in parliament so that they will all be handed over to Iran\u201d (Mehr news agency).<\/p>\n
11. On September 16, committee spokesman Hossein Naghavi announced: \u201cIran will reconsider its relations with countries that accept the Monafeqin.\u201d (Reporters\u2019 Club, affiliated with IRGC). On September 14, Friday prayer Imams of many cities who commended the Iraqi government for its attack on Ashraf, said: \u201cNo country should accept PMOI members as refugees; rather, they should hand them over to the Islamic Republic.\u201d<\/p>\n
12. On September 21, Khamenei\u2019s mouthpiece the Kayhan daily unveiled the regime\u2019s double-aspect policy of increasing suppression at Camp Liberty while preventing residents\u2019 resettlement. It wrote: \u201cThe government must work incessantly with Iraqi officials for the complete expulsion of the Monafeqin from that country\u2019s soil and the closure of Camp Liberty. Considering that the current government in Iraq has close relations with Iran, this matter of importance is not too hard to achieve.\u201d Khamenei\u2019s mouthpiece then adds: “The president and the foreign minister of our country should send this explicit and firm message to the governments worldwide, particularly to the countries in the region, that the Islamic Republic will never allow any country to station this terrorist grouplet on its soil, otherwise, it has to face political, economic and may be security consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n
13. Previously too, the mullahs\u2019 regime was deeply involved in obstructing the admission of PMOI members in other countries. On 18 March 2013, Mansour Haghighatpour, Deputy Chair of Security Committee of the parliament, said: \u201cIf Albania accepts the PMOI, its Ambassador will be summoned to the foreign ministry.\u201d He stressed: \u201cThis move will affect the level of trade between the two countries\u201d (Regime\u2019s parliament news agency).<\/p>\n
14. Following the transfer of the first group to Albania, the threats by mullahs\u2019 regime assumed an added dimension:
On May 18, the state-run News Network TV threatened: \u201cExperts believe with the presence of these people in Albania, in future, the Balkans will witness bombings and sabotages that would benefit the U.S. and the Zionist regime.\u201d On the same day, the state-run Qods daily threatened the Albanian Prime Minister and wrote: \u201cOur diplomatic apparatus should make clear to Sali Berisha the consequences of his dangerous behavior regarding his country and people and its bilateral relations with Tehran.\u201d<\/p>\n
Seyyed Bagher Hossieni, a member of regime\u2019s parliament, told the Albanian government that the PMOI \u201care not only dangerous to their national interests but could present a danger to the whole region.\u201d (Regime\u2019s parliament\u2019s news agency – May 19, 2013)<\/p>\n
Mohammadreza Thani, Chair of the parliament\u2019s Security Committee, said: \u201cAccepting the PMOI not only brings no prestige to Albania, but will have security consequences for the country in the long-run. (Khan-e Mellat website, affiliated with parliament – June 24, 2013)<\/p>\n
15. Sabotage in the transfer of PMOI to other countries is being carried out by the Iranian regime while at the same time it is planning via its puppet government and its agents and hirelings in Iraq for further suppressive measures and missile attacks against Camp Liberty residents. In a statement by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) on 20 December 2013, it is noted that Maliki, in his visit to Iran, agreed to all conditions set by the Iranian regime to acquire the regime\u2019s support for his third term as Prime Minster; including the following:<\/p>\n
– \u201cComplete freedom of action against PMOI for Ministry of Intelligence and Qods Force in Iraq<\/p>\n
– \u201cEstablishment of a Qods Force headquarters near Camp Liberty<\/p>\n
– \u201cIntensification of pressures and suppressive measures against PMOI in Camp Liberty\u201d.<\/p>\n
16. In NCRI statements of 7, 8 and 9 January, plans by the clerical regime and Maliki to attack and slaughter in Camp Liberty were disclosed. These statements explicitly state that the Qods Force, in coordination with Government of Iraq, is poised to carry out further and heavier missile attacks on Camp Liberty. A considerable number of Qods Force officers have arrived at Baghdad Airport with heat-seeking missiles and the coordination for transfer of the new missiles and their launch pads is being worked out by Maliki\u2019s National Security Advisor\u2019s organ. Maliki has ordered SWAT and Dirty Division forces to be deployed near Camp Liberty and to act against PMOI if the situation turns critical.<\/p>\n
17. On January 8, the mullahs\u2019 Ministry of Intelligence declared that the present situation in Iraq is \u201can exceptional opportunity to concurrently destroy Daesh and PMOI\u201d. Habilian, a well-known branch of Ministry of Intelligence, put together fabrications such as the PMOI \u201chave always supported terrorist groups like Daesh\u201d to conclude that \u201cit is necessary for Government of Iraq that concurrent with efforts to annihilate al-Qaeda terrorists, seriously think about this important opportunity to dry out the root of support of PMOI for these terrorists\u201d (Ministry of Intelligence website of \u201cHabilian\u201d).<\/p>\n
18. The NCRI\u2019s Security and Anti-Terrorism Committee declared on January 3: \u201cFollowing the fourth missile attack on Camp Liberty, the Nejat Association, a branch of mullahs\u2019 Ministry of Intelligence, and its paid hands, under the pretext of residents\u2019 families who want to learn about the names of those injured, attempted to collect detailed tactical and operational information on the outcome of the December 26 attack for more accurate planning of the next attacks. Following an attack, Ministry of Intelligence tasked its agents to send correspondence to international organizations and express their concern for the safety of their relatives in Camp Liberty and request \u201cputting pressure on the PMOI leadership to announce the names of the injured\u201d.<\/p>\n
19. At the same time, through the dispatch of its agents to European countries, the clerical regime not only attempts to spy on and disseminate bogus information and conduct a demonizing campaign, but tries to block the transfer of PMOI members to these countries.<\/p>\n
20. A statement by the NCRI Security and Anti-Terrorism Committee on 2 December 2013 revealed that one such element by the name of Ehsan Bidi had entered Albania on 16 October, 2013, with an Iranian passport with serial number 16359072 under the pretext of being a refugee and \u201cformer member of the PMOI\u201d. This passport, issued on 27 January 2013 by the Ministry of Intelligence and valid for five years, clearly shows the irrelevancy of the status of asylum for this individual. There are many other examples where people, other than those in Camp Liberty, with no risk against their lives, have been sent to European countries under pretext of \u201cformer PMOI members\u201d while they are the residents of Camp Liberty who should have priority because their lives are continuously threatened by missile barrages and may lose their lives at any time.<\/p>\n
Since the abovementioned facts leave not a shred of doubt about the mullahs\u2019 regime ominous intentions and that of its puppet government in Iraq to annihilate Camp Liberty residents or compel them to surrender, the Iranian Resistance calls for the immediate intervention by United States and the United Nations for the referral of the case to the Security Council for the adoption of binding decisions to provide safety and security to the residents until all of them are transferred to Europe or United States.<\/p>\n
