TEHRAN - There is a saying in Persian that tells people to observe morality even in enmity
Throughout history, the Iranian society has always been unforgiving towards corrupt and decadent acts, with perhaps the most frowned upon of
them all being treason.There are engrained cultural and historical notions in Iran that put the motherland on a high pedestal and regard it
of an unquenchable thirst for powerThe Mojahedin-e-Khalq Organization (MKO/ME), known as Monafeqin (Hypocrites) in Iran, was founded in 1965
by leftist Iranian university students who sought to overthrow the monarchy
The power thirsty group began a lifelong of treason and betrayal during the 1979 Iranian constitutional referendum when they realized that
they were not nearly as popular as the late Imam Khomeini
The new Islamic constitution was approved by more than 99-percent of voters and the MKO resorted to terrorist acts in hopes of gaining
power.With the establishment of the Islamic Republic, the MKO launched assassinations and terror operations
The group was responsible for the death of about 12,000 out of a total of 17,000 killed in terrorist attacks in the 1980s
MKO shifted to the orbit of Saddam Hussein during his invasion of Iran in the 1980s
Tehran and Baghdad accepted United Nations Security Council resolution 598 on July 20, 1988, which would end the war the next month on
The MKO decided to make use of the remaining time and orchestrate an operation dubbed eternal light to topple the Islamic Republic
system.The group used its forces deployed inside Iraq to carry out the offensive
On July 26, 1988 the MKO began an incursion into Iran through western borders while it received support from Iraqi airpower
During the fight about 4,500 of MKO operatives were killed, including many of its senior members

The terrorists who were now more prone to getting killed began to look for a new master to move on from the one that had ended up selling
them.In 2016, the MKO group was relocated to Albania under a U.S
brokered deal and from there it continued its anti-Iran operations many of which ended up getting neutralized by Iran.But soon it was time
for these traitors to get tossed around one more time
On June 20, 2023, Albanian police lunched an operation on the MKOs camp on the orders of the Albanian judiciary due to the "violation of
The raid led to the death of at least one MKO member and the arrest of 70 others
Some media outlets have claimed that Tirana has turned in some documents collected during the raid to Tehran and there has been little to no
condemnation of the act so far.Infamous even among anti-Iran campaignersDuring the riots in the fall of 2022 which first began in Tehran,
But even during this time when the enemies of Iran were getting united, the MKO was getting excluded from public activities
Even the so-called opposition group knows that the vast majority of Iranian people would not be accepting of a group they see as traitors
This shows traitors in fact betray themselves first, before betraying their country.
