Sunday, 18 November 2007

NCRI - In an article by Iraqi author and journalist, Safi Al-Yaseri, in the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Siyasa, the terrorist meddling of the Iranian regime in Iraq as well as the conspiracies against People's Mojahedin Orgnization of Iran (PMOI aka Mek) were condemned. He wrote, "Mojahedin’s presence in Iraq is legal and in accordance with International treaties."

"The Iraqi government is not allowed to move them within Iraq, let alone giving in to the demands and pressures by the Iranian regime to expel or hand them over. They are considered protected persons under the 4th Geneva Convention."

The article continued, "The nonsense coming from the rulers in Tehran has no bearing but to add to the Iraqi peoples’ anger. Our doors are open to all the residents of Ashraf. We welcome them because we want to express our appreciation to their revelations of detailed plans by the Iranian regime to annex Iraq, their attempt to join Iraqi people to expose the mercenaries of the Iranian regime among Iraqis whose days are numbered."
