Call for adoption of binding decision by UN Security Council to
provide security to Camp Liberty until resettlement
Chain of hysteric reactions by mullahs’ regime and its operatives
to the introduction of Special Adviser to UN Secretary General for Relocation
of Camp Hurriya Residents Outside of Iraq, reapproves the fact that the Iranian
regime not only has no desire for transfer of Camp Liberty residents to third
countries but stops at nothing to stonewall the process. Time and again Mrs.
Rajavi has declared that mullahs’ true objective is not to have PMOI members
depart from Ashraf or Iraq; rather, they are looking to physically annihilate
them or have them surrender; there is no third option. (Iranians’ great
gathering of June 22; conference at UN Headquarters on September 19; conference
in Paris on October 19, 2013)
1. Iranian regime’s media, in a replica story, published the report
on the Secretary General’s Special Advisor with rage and anger: “By appointing
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.” (Fars, IRGC news
agency and Jomhoury Eslami daily - January 7)
2. Still other regime’s media wrote: “This measure by UN was
immediately adopted after the most recent attack on Camp Liberty. Given that
third countries are not willing to accept this cult… therefore 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 drawing
sympathy. In this regard, PMOI would not at all dislike being attack 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.” (Bulletin News and Jam News -
January 7) This is an unambiguous scenario to increase the criminal attacks
against Camp Liberty residents.
3. Speaking on the subject, Nozar Shafiee, member of the National
Security and Foreign Policy Committee of the mullahs’ Majlis, said, “This
measure by UN to protect the PMOI will encourage them to increase terrorist
activities… as such, this is contrary to United Nations’ general objective to
preserve international peace and security… presence of ‘Monafeqin’ in third
country will definitely be a mistake. Countries must refrain from accepting
this terrorist group in order to strengthen their relations with Tehran.”
(Iranian regime’s parliament news agency - January 13)
4. In a long article, the state-run News Network TV wrote in its
website: “Ban Ki-moon has mandated Ms. Jane Holl Lute to find a new place to
resettle the PMOI… 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 gangster and terrorist
group… siding with this group will tarnish the reputation of this organization
and the UN Secretary-General.” (News Network TV website – January 14)
5.
As reiterated by regime’s media, among main objectives of regime’s Foreign
Minister’s trip to the countries in the region was to prevent acceptance of
Liberty residents. Speaking on the subject, member of the National Security and
Foreign Relations parliamentary committee Mohammad Hassan Asfari who
accompanied the Foreign Minister, said: “In his meeting with Jordanian
authorities, Zarif declared Iran’s position regarding acceptance of PMOI
members.” (Iranian Intelligence Ministry’s Mehr news agency - January 17)
He
also emphasized: “In 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 ‘Monafeqin’ in its
country.” (Khan-e Mellat website, affiliated with the regime’s Majlis – January
19)
Mullahs’ regime media also wrote that in his trip to Baghdad, one
of the most important tasks of the Foreign Minister had to do with “PMOI and
settling the issue of this cult” (Bulletin News, January 14).
6. The Iranian regime has tasked its ambassadors and
representatives in different countries – especially in Europe – to warn the
authorities of countries they are in against accepting the PMOI members of Camp
Liberty and to threaten 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
transfer of PMOI members to these countries cause for insecurity, disturbance
and terrorist activities.
7.
Last October the Iranian regime’s 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 precisely control
them... and informed these officials about the names of some of the
organizations in Germany ‘that are active as front organizations for
Monafeqin’.”
It is clear that authors of these issues are the intelligent agents
who shed crocodile tears for Liberty residents and accuse “PMOI leadership” 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: “I hope the whole earth will be
cleansed of the PMOI contamination.” (Tasnim news agency, affiliated with the
Qods Force)
9. On September 13, Asfari, member of this committee said: “Iran
will break off relations with any country that would give residence to the
PMOI.” (Iran’s state-run TV)
10. On September 14, IRGC Brigadier General Esmail Koathari,
another member of this committee said, “No country is allowed to accept them as
a whole that would enable them to maintain their solid organization. We shall
follow this up in the parliament so that they will all be handed over to Iran”
(Mehr news agency).
11. On September 16, spokesman for the committee Hossein Naghavi
announced: “Iran will reconsider its relations with countries that accept the
Monafeqin.” (Reporters’ Club, affiliated with IRGC). On September 14, Friday
prayer Imams of many cities who commended the Iraqi government for its attack
on Ashraf, said: “No country should accept PMOI members as refugees; rather,
they should hand them over to the Islamic Republic.”
12.
On September 21, Khamenei’s mouthpiece of Kayhan daily
with utter frankness unveiled mullahs’ regime’s two-aspect policy of increasing
pressures and suppression at Camp Liberty while preventing residents’
resettlement, and wrote: “The government must incessantly work with the Iraqi
officials for complete expulsion of the Monafeqin from that country’s soil and
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.” Khamenei’s 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 its political, economic and may
be security consequences.”
13. Previously too, the mullahs’ regime was deeply involved in
obstructing admission of PMOI members in other countries. On 18 March 2013,
Mansour Haghighatpour, Deputy Chair of Security Committee of the parliament,
said: “If Albania accepts the PMOI, its Ambassador will be summoned to the
foreign ministry.” He stressed, “This move will affect the level of trade
between the two countries” (Regime’s parliament news agency).
14.
Following transfer of the first group to Albania, the threats by mullahs’
regime assumed added dimension:
-
On May 18, the state-run News
Network TV threatened: “Experts believe with the presence of these people in
Albania, in future, the Balkans will witness bombings and sabotages that would
benefit U.S. and the Zionist regime.”
-
On the same day, the state-run
Qods daily threatened the Albanian Prime Minister and wrote: “Our 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.”
-
Seyyed Bagher Hossieni, member of
regime’s parliament, addressing the Albanian government on the same day said
that the PMOI “are not only dangerous to their national interests but could
cause danger to the whole region.” (Regime’s parliament’s news agency - May 19,
2013)
-
Mohammadreza Thani, Chair of
parliament’s Security Committee said, “Accepting 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)
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 reminded that Maliki,
in his visit to Iran, has agreed to all conditions set by the Iranian regime to
acquire regime’s support for his third term as Prime Minster; including the
following:
- “Complete freedom of action
against PMOI for Ministry of Intelligence and Qods Force in Iraq;
- “Establishment of a Qods Force
headquarters near Camp Liberty; and
- “Intensification of pressures and suppressive measures
against PMOI in Camp Liberty”.
16. In
NCRI statements of 7, 8 and 9 January, plans by the clerical regime and Maliki
to attack and slaughter in Camp Liberty have been disclosed. These statements
explicitly state that the Qods Force, in coordination with Government of Iraq,
is poised to carry out further attacks on Camp Liberty by more missiles in
number and strength. 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’s
National Security Advisor’s 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.
17. On
January 8, mullahs’ Ministry of Intelligence declared that the present
situation in Iraq is “an exceptional opportunity to concurrently destroy Daesh
and PMOI”. Habilian, a well-known branch of Ministry of Intelligence, put
together a bunch of fabrications such as PMOI “have always supported terrorist
groups like Daesh” to conclude that “it 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” (Ministry of Intelligence website of “Habilian”).
18. NCRI’s
Security and Anti-Terrorism Committee declared on January 3: “Following the
fourth missile attack on Camp Liberty, Nejat Association, a branch of mullahs’
Ministry of Intelligence, and its paid hands, under the pretext of residents’
families who want to learn about the names of those injured, attempted to
collect detailed tactical and operations 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 correspondences to
international organizations and express their concern for safety of their
relatives in Camp Liberty and request “bringing pressure on PMOI leadership to
announce the names of the injured”.
19. At the
same time, through dispatch of its elements 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 transfer of PMOI members to
these countries.
20. A
statement by NCRI Security and Anti-Terrorism Committee on 2 December 2013
revealed that one such element by the name of Ehsan Bidi has entered Albania on
16 October 2013 with an Iranian passport with serial number 16359072 under the
pretext of refugee and “former member of PMOI”. 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
“former PMOI members” while they are the residents of Camp Liberty who should
have priority because their lives are continuously threatened by missile
barrages and may losetheir lives at any time.
Since the
abovementioned facts leave not a shred of doubt about mullahs’ 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
immediate intervention by United States and the United Nations for referral of
the case to the Security Council for adoption of binding decisions to provide
safety and security to the residents until all of them are transferred to
Europe or United States.
