Since this new system is secret, we know about it only insofar as parts of the plan have already been implemented. Thierry Meyssan explores this world of violence.

From revolutionnaries to mercenaries

The Moudjahidins that lost their way

The Moudjahidins that lost their way

Paris (France) | 17 February 2004
The Moudjahidin of the People (hereinafter “the MDP”) was the progeny of an armed resistance to the dictatorship of Iran’s shah. Its raison d’etre was to bring about an Islamic and social revolution. However, Ayatollah Khomeiny, shoved it, sine nolente, to a side.
From objective alliances to shady agreements, followed by clear acts of betrayal, the MDP becomes a prosthetic of Washington. Washington weaponizes it to destroy the Iranian people - the MDP’s own people - and by doing so, makes it self-destruct.
Responsible for attacks in 15 countries against Iranian interests and for participating in the worst acts of the Saddam Hussein regime, today the MDP is considered a terrorist organization, yet one supported by US hawks.
