Has anyone CREDIBLE shared the information about MEK with the White House? Certainly the REAL identity and purpose of this organization and its history should be relevant to keeping it listed as a terrorist entity.
I’d say Khomeini was smart enough to recognize his own kind, use MeK & the Rajavis to help bring him to power in Iran, but later not share power with them.
A main problem with MeK & the Rajavis, apart from their violent history, is that they are also Stupid.
Ideologically, it will always be much easier for the Mullahs’ regime (regardless of their violent history & atrocious human rights records) to be accepted by (mainstream) Iranians, at least those who are religious, than MeK, because MeK are not simply Islamists, but “Marxist-Islamists”.
As far as I’m aware, initially, many Western countries added MeK to their list of terrorist organizations based on pressure from & demands by IRI (Khomeinist regime). So, it begs the questions: Why list one as a terrorist group, and not the other (IRI)? Is it because IRI is actually in charge of a country & MeK is not?
