@isjcommittee: There are hundreds of reports and witness accounts by Western personalities who the regime’s covert agents have approached under the guise of opposition activists, experts, journalists and ordinary Iranians who have parroted the regime’s narrative about the #MEK
@isjcommittee@steve_mccabe in a letter to colleagues 2011: You might be contacted by people purporting to be ordinary Iranians living in the UK and warning you not to support the PMOI. You might also receive a barrage of emails as well as an expensive booklet produced by the Iranian Embassy.
@isjcommittee@steve_mccabe Lord Corbett 2008: Whenever an MP or Peer expresses support for the goals of the Resistance, they are bombarded with misinformation about it, either by the Iranian Embassy in London or front organisations and individuals who pose as disaffected former members of the PMOI.
@isjcommittee@paulocasaca1 2006: I have come across, as you might have been, with a well‐orchestrated propaganda and disinformation campaign by the Iranian regime primarily aimed at tarnishing the image of the main Iranian resistance movement ... and its affiliated organizations such as #MEK
@isjcommittee@paulocasaca1 This campaign inevitably reminds me of what Hitlerʹs propaganda minister, Josef Goebbles, said once, ʺTell a lie that is big enough and repeat it often enough and the whole world will believe it.ʺ
@isjcommittee@TheTorontoSun July 5, 2010: John Thompson from MacKenzie Institute says he was offered $80,000 by a man tied to Iranʹs mission in Canada. ʺThey wanted me to publish a piece on the #MEK. Iran is trying to get other countries to label it as a terrorist cult.ʺ
