Iran spying on PMOI (MEK) and NCRI – German intelligence

Germany’s internal security service has exposed Iran’s fundamentalist regime of spying on Iran’s largest democratic opposition group, the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran, PMOI (Mujahedin-e Khalq, MEK), and the main opposition coalition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI).

Germany’s domestic intelligence service, the Office for the Protection of the Constitution (Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz, or ‘BfV’), said in its annual report, dated July 2015, that the PMOI (MEK) and NCRI are the primary targets of spying activity by Iran’s notorious Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS).

More than 200 protesting teachers arrested in Iran: NCRI

More than 200 teachers were arrested on Wednesday during a protest outside the parliament in Tehran demanding the release of their colleagues from jail, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) said on Wednesday

Don’t repeat history’s mistake in Iran deal

The fundamentalist regime in Iran came to the negotiating table from a position of utter weakness and not due to a change of heart by Tehran’s leadership over its nuclear project, Ambassador Ken Blackwell rightly points out today.

“It had its back against the wall.” 

Over-stretched by three regional wars, with a restive population, particularly among the young and the women, and an economy on the verge of collapse, the regime in Iran was not in any position to seek concessions, he said.

West should push for a solution for Iran’s destabilizing role in the region

The role of the West now is to push toward a solution not only to the “one particular problem” of Iran’s nuclear program, but also to the overall problem of Iran’s destabilizing effect on the Middle East and the world, Prof. Raymond Tanter says.

“Iran has always avoided revealing the details of its nuclear program until the weight of intelligence from foreign agencies and domestic dissidents made it impossible to keep up its denials. The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) revealed sites that Iran has shielded from foreign scrutiny over the past 13 years. And it took years of UN resolutions and economic sanctions before Iran would concede to negotiate on restrictions to even a fraction of these sites,” he wrote in Daily Caller.

Khamenei vows to continue export of terror to cover up his retreat from nuclear red lines

Four days after reaching a nuclear deal with the world powers, the Iranian regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei attempted to “cloak his retreat from his nuclear red lines” by saying that the nuclear accord will not affect the regime’s policy of export of terrorism and fundamentalism throughout the region, according to Iran’s major opposition coalition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI).

Maryam Rajavi: Iran nuclear deal neither prevents mullahs bomb nor ends their deception

Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran says the Iran nuclear agreement with six world powers that is circumventing six UN Security Council resolutions will not close the mullahs’ path to deception and access to nuclear bomb.

However she said that the Iranian regime’s supreme leader’s retreat from his redlines will shatter his hegemony and undermine the entire regime

Despite many shortages and illegitimate concessions to the mullahs, the nuclear deal struck by P5+1 and the Iranian regime forces Khamenei to retreat and violate the declared redlines he had repeatedly insisted on over the past 12 years, including in recent weeks, said the Iranian Resistance’s President-elect Maryam Rajavi.

Heed Maryam Rajavi’s call to defeat Islamic fundamentalism

Iranian opposition leader Mrs. Maryam Rajavi has for more than three decades urged the world community to take a firm stance against Islamic fundamentalism.

The main Iranian opposition group, the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI, or the MEK), which firmly believes in Islam’s democratic principles, poses the greatest challenge to the fundamentalist mullahs’ ruling Iran.

PARIS: Ramadan conference held in support of a democratic Iran

NCRI considered a viable alternative to Iran’s tyrants by Patrick J. Kennedy

Former Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy considers the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), a coalition of Iranian opposition groups and personalities, as “a viable alternative to Iran’s tyrants,” as expressed in his post on Thehill.com, earlier today.

Describing the NCRI’s annual Iran Freedom convention in Paris, Kennedy said: “Looking at images of the June 13 rally, it’s fitting to describe the gathering as a microcosm of Iranian society. Young and old, rich and poor, and people of all religious beliefs attended the event from all walks of life, although the majority are educated, urban, middle-class Iranians.”
