Enemies
of the Ayatollahs Published in 2004 after the fall of Saddam Hussein, this book, written by Mohammad Mohaddessin, an early and respected member of the PMOI, tells the story of the PMOI and its struggle against the religious fundamentalism of the Mullhas who seized power in Iran in 1979. It also highlights the dangers to the Western world of appeasing the current regime with its nuclear ambitions and aim of spreading its brand of Islamic fundamentalism throughout the region. |

Shackled by a Twisted History Written by Lincoln Bloomfield Jr and published in 2013 this monograph rebuts many of the damaging allegations made against the Mujaheddin by the Iranian regime and its agents. Lincoln Bloomfield Jr. first assessed these allegations when asked to produce an objective report as part of the MEK de-listing campaign. His findings, published in August 2011, showed that there was very little credible evidence to support the allegations. After visiting the NCRI headquarters in Paris, he was further convinced in favour of the Mujaheddin and reported this in no uncertain terms to Congress on 7 December 2011. |
