They are the People\u2019s Mujahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK).<\/p>\n<p>When Ali Larijni, the Iranian regime House Speaker, <a href=\"http:\/\/irannewsupdate.com\/blog\/3919-iranian-regime-s-fear-of-mek-why.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">said<\/a> after the MEK was removed from the U.S. list of terrorist groups, \u201cNow it\u2019s you (the United States) who are sponsor of terrorism and even mother of terrorism, yet you accuse the Iranian regime of sponsoring terrorism. Your accusations are shameful\u2026Today, the Americans removed the MEK from their list of terrorist groups.\u201d His remarks came during a speech on June 23.<\/p>\n<p>Fars agency, with alleged affiliations with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), has voiced concerns of the regime over what they see as a dangerous turn of events, now that Camp Liberty\u2019s residents have been relocated to Europe. Fars reported on June 20 that the move was a reminder of (MEK\u2019s) declaring war against the regime. the news agency adds, \u201cThe group\u2019s (MEK\u2019s) increased activities and their efforts for creating chaos and making a creeping coup was so intense over a period of time that many thought it was over for the regime on July 9, 1999. Their coordination was even further revealed during the 2009 uprising.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The regime controls the press in Iran, but with satellite television, the opposition is able to shed light on the regime\u2019s activities and inform the Iranian people of such things as exposing of bankrupt institutions belonging to state entities, like the IRGC. \u201cSome satellite channels linked to MEK have released a clip showing that Samen institution has gone bankrupt, scaring investors into rushing to Samen Bank branches,\u201d said a regime official.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, families with loved ones killed in the efforts of various families to receive for their loved ones killed in the <a href=\"http:\/\/ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/human-rights\/20932-the-1988-massacre-in-iran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">1988 massacre<\/a> have sought justice. However, supreme leader Ali Khamenei <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/ncri-statements\/iran-resistance\/22954-khamenei-s-fear-of-the-rise-of-the-justice-movement-and-spreading-the-slogan-of-no-to-executioner-no-to-imposter-in-sham-elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">has spoken<\/a> out against this movement, which focuses on justice for those MEK members executed. Khamenei stated, \u201cWe\u2019ve recently been hearing some tribunes attacking regime\u2019s records during the 80\u2019s. I recommend those who are thoughtful not to mistake executioners for martyrs when judging the 80s events. Iranian people were oppressed at the time. Terrorists, MEK, their supporters and those who raised them and constantly blew them persecuted the Iranian people. They did bad things. The Iranian people were forced to take a defensive position.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Khamenei\u2019s speech, a rush of state-run media outlets attacked and made false accusations against the MEK. Things escalated following Khamenei\u2019s fire-at-will order. Supporters of the Iranian regime called MEK the killers, and claimed that the order from Khomeini was meant to protect the country by killing anyone, including MEK members and supporters, who still stood their ground and supported the MEK.<\/p>\n<p>In the Shiraz Friday prayer show, Assadollah Imani said, \u201cIf MEK had not been repressed in 1988, you were faced with such plights everyday over the past 20 years. Khomeini knew well how to deal with MEK.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The attacks aren&#8217;t limited to the MEK. The Friday Prayer Imam Alamolhoda in Mashhad attacked Rouhani for the increased popularity of the MEK and the movement seeking justice for victims of the 1988 massacre. \u201cToday, we are faced with such a problem. To gain power and push away their rivals, they defend (MEK) so much that the supreme leader is forced to shout not to mistake executioner for martyr. Those claiming to run the regime are actually defending the MEK.\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The release of the Hassanali Montazeri <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=73fO6rDFqvY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">audio tape<\/a> detailing the roles of the death commissions in the 1988 massacre has sent shockwaves through Iran.<\/p>\n<p>The Judiciary\u2019s Mizan news agency reported, \u201cThe audio file was released right when counter-revolutionary elements and media had prepared their same old programs against the Iranian regime to mark the anniversary of the execution of MEK members. Besides, MEK was holding a gathering in Paris at the time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another gathering is being held in Paris on July 1st. There, the opposition will lay out their case for a Free Iran, one that doesn\u2019t include the fundamentalism and repression of the regime. Speakers from various leadership bodies in the international community will show their support for the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), a coalition of opposition movements determined to create a peaceful regime change.<\/p>\n<p>The President-elect of the NCRI, Maryam Rajavi, has called for the formation of the movement to obtain justice for the victims of the 1988 massacre. \u201cThis is a very important document attesting to several basic realities. First, the audio clip contains explicit confessions by those responsible for the massacre regarding their participation in an ongoing genocide. It shows that Khomeini and his entourage contravened even their own procedures and routines and were directly involved in the massacre. It also indicates that the religious tyranny solidified the foundations of the next repugnant Velayat-e-Faqih (absolute clerical rule) as a result of this genocide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Khomeini feared the MEK\u2019s deep roots and strength in Iranian society. In a letter to Montazeri, Khomeini explained the reason for the latter\u2019s ouster as heir to the supreme leader, \u201cIt has now become clear that after me, you will give up this country and the dear Islamic revolution of Iran\u2019s Muslim nation to liberals and through them to the (Mojahedin).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The increasing popularity of the MEK is a dangerous development, according to the regime. And now, the NCRI and their supporters have called on the international community to support the people of Iran in their demand for the prosecution of the Iranian regime\u2019s leaders.<\/p>\n<p>Human rights advocates and international bodies have continued to report on Iran\u2019s record of repression. The United Nations and the UN Security Council have been called upon to adopt political and legal arrangements for the international prosecution of leaders of this regime on the charge of committing crimes against humanity.<\/p>\n<p>A necessary step toward ending mass executions within Iran, such as the recent execution of 25 Sunni prisoners, would be a formal international condemnation of the 1988 massacre, and would help the movement to obtain justice by the supporters of the Iranian Resistance, holding Khamenei and other regime leaders accountable for crimes against humanity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Mahmoud Hakamian Although the Iranian regime oppresses all those who challenge their rule, one organization has been the target of
