Interestingly it was Mossad,who with the CIA of course,who helped to build up the feared SAVAK security apparatus that undergirded the Shah’s rule.

This together with other factors such as Iran’s being a favoured location for CIA drug-running (an interest they shared with elements of the Iranian leadership)and Israel’s natural affinity for states dominated by racial or religious minorities within the region as a whole,helps explain why President Gerald Ford happily endorsed Iran’s decision to pursue the nuclear option in 1975.

Israel didn’t bat an eyelid at the time either.

Re, MeK, NCIR and other neo-con funded/minded Iranian groups operating outside Iran, they deserve far more contempt than AIPAC and BushCo together.

In my youth, I considered myself an MeK sympathizer (perhaps because a few of my MEK relatives were on the death row, and some already executed!), until they joined Iraqis in fighting against Iran in Mersaad operation!

These groups are sickening traitors; living in a dreamland; and willing to sell their country (no wonder they had no problem selling their families either) in pursuit of revenge, and a debunked ideology that no one inside Iran is interested in.

They have been on the US congress “terrorist list” since the 70s (they are not only Communists but also Islamists of the worst kind, so it’s like two US-enemies in one!); and it is quite ironic that they have become the sources of information about the clandestine operations of the IRI!
