The widely discussed MEK is the most feared by the religious fundamentalists ruling Iran and yet it is being shackled by the US in a bid to leash the ayatollahs in the nuclear battlefield.
The irony of it is that vacuous fear for the ayatollahs has blinded the counterparts in the battlefield to the irrefutable reality: the MEK is the anti-thesis to the clerical fascists and the only pathway to Peace and Democracy in the region. It has the most experience of the irrational mullahs, the best capability and structure; a steadfast support around the world. Simply speaking: the MEK has worn-out all Iranian-run smear campaigns, saved its members from annihilation and geared the crisis in Iran for a complete internecine of the clerical fascists.
This is where the Administration cagey policy makers missed the mark completely and left out the best interests of world peace while aiding the worst: the Ayatollahs.
The litmus test has always been the MEK, when policy towards a ferocious, mediaeval, sly and warmongering clerical fascism is concerned.
Logic and sense are the ultimate landmark to distinguish “friend” from “foe,” “hero” from “villain” and “self-destruction” destruction” from “self-preservation” preservation”
The world has been engaged in a “third world war” for the past 35 years, with its superman or the hero being always mistrusted, while the Villain cleverly posed as the savior. The difference between fiction and fact this time has been marginalized by a bitter struggle of a resistance that has been focused to stand against a religious tyranny for the sake of the world.
The best reflection on this struggle has been mainly portrayed by the Iranian state run press.
Not a day goes by without tens of mud-sliding articles, interviews, speeches, programs and television series against the group.
The irony is the reverse effects the anti-MEK obsession of clerics in Iran, and their pundits in Washington has had on readers: who is the MEK and why are they feared by the ayatollahs?
If the group is so miserably a terrorist one:
Why spend one-third of the budget on smearing its public image? Why hire multi-million dollar contractors as lobbyists and why risk diplomatic incentives on rogue Qods force commanders posing as “ambassadors” to bully Iraqi leaders into heated attacks against the group in Iraq? Why does Tehran risk tarnishing its “reformist” image by openly trying to assassinate a Saudi diplomat and blame it on the group? Why resort to terrorism and political sham to gain a concession on controlling the group?
There is a famous Chinese expression which best explains the dilemma: The vicious circle of attacks by your enemy is only proof to the righteous path you are on and the serious threat you pose your enemy.
If we imagine for a while that we are in a battlefield over human existence, and our objective is to prevent the reign of a mediaeval fascism that plays God for not only human beings but the creation, we would realise that our survival would depend on our mastering the art of war.
While reminding ourselves that we never chose to be in that battlefield and was confronted with a situation, unless we make a list of “to do’s”, the animosity and complexity of our enemy would outweigh our wit and courage and thus leave us shattered.
The first set of rules involve; distinguishing the villain from the hero; trusting mutual interests within the hero realm and confiding in “unity” as the source of strength not short term tempting interests; recognizing strategic opportunities to use the unity against the main enemy; and responding with dynamism to shifting circumstances.
The only non-changeable principle among the rules is keeping a clear-cut distinction between friend and foe.
You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means, he uses to frighten you.
To appreciate this Achilles point, one can only surf through the huge capital Tehran has invested in its psychological war against the group.
So far, the religious tyrants in Iran, as God fathers to terrorism, have used government propaganda; it serves to deflect attention from the tyrants’ animosity toward a mostly imagined, highly dangerous outside enemy; MEK
How ever the presence of a very important ingredient on this battlefield is almost crucial for success; stay on the right side of riotousness and side with the “heroes and not the villain.”
Every dictator is an enemy of freedom, an opponent of law and Justice. If the Obama Administration was to prove its grandeur before the elections, it must take the ultimate leap and draw a strong and permanent red line with the Tyrants: De-list the main opposition to the religious fascism in Iran, MEK, unleash the Heroes.
