Open Letter to Prime Minister Gordon Brown
January 4, 2010An open letter to Prime Minister Gordon Brown, today asked his government to stop incitement to violence being broadcast into Iran by a terrorist group from London. Massoud Khodabandeh, of Leeds-based Middle East Strategy Consultants, said, "The Iranian people's courageous, peaceful demonstrations to achieve their natural freedoms and rights are being fatally undermined from within the U.K." Khodabandeh said the Mojahedin-e Khalq (aka MKO, MEK, NCRI, PMOI, Rajavi cult) is broadcasting incitement to violence from London through its satellite programme Sima-ye Azadi. The group is also known to be financed through British-based banks. "Britain, following Washington's lead, has put herself in a position where she is seen to support terrorism. This is not in our interests," said Khodabandeh. Hardliners in the Iranian government yesterday imposed zero tolerance on street protests after it was found that members of the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq cult had been dispatched to Iran to foment violence among the ordinary protestors. In August 2009, Massoud Khodabandeh published a second report following consultation with the Iraqi government on plans to expel the cult from Iraq. An Iraqi government official stressed that terror teams could not have been sent from Camp Ashraf after American forces handed over control of the terrorist base to Iraq in January 2009. Full release.
