Iran Election Boycott Acknowledged by SSN

The Iranian presidential election will be held on Friday, June 18, but more Iranians are vowing to boycott them, as part of a campaign led by the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) and it has reached such a peak that the candidates and state-run media are admitting that turnout will be low.

This campaign, that began in April, continues in May and June 2021. And the MEK Resistance Units have been widely spreading the call, but over the past few days, the media has been acknowledging that the MEK is popular across the country, which shows that the regime’s attempts to demonize the MEK has failed.

The Students News Network (SSN), which is affiliated with Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s faction, said Saturday that young Iranians are joining the MEK, and it’s not clear what the regime can do about it.

They wrote: “Not by using the State Security Forces, neither by spreading awareness through the State TV about the MEK and its mixed ideology, not even with the Ministry of Intelligence and Security [MOIS] efforts abroad to use the MEK defectors to feed the media and cyberspace about the nature of the MEK [has the regime been able to prevent people joining the MEK].”

Then, the SSN advised that the regime has increased the divide between the mullahs and the people ever of the past eight years, which is why the people have joined the MEK. (The MEK have always been the enemies of the regime because of its abuse of the people and is proud to support the overthrow of the regime, even though they have paid a major price for this.)

The SSN wrote: “If the [government] had paid attention to these youths and were not frustrated if the economic cycle was based on the domestic capabilities, we were not witnessing groups of two to three-person of the youth operating under the MEK’s command. The efforts of the security agencies around the clock and even the large number of arrests have not been able to stop the spread of the MEK’s activities.”

Speaking of the Resistance Units activities, in May alone the MEK popularized the election boycott in 310 areas, while in April, they carried out activities in over 250 places.

The Iranian Resistance wrote: “Due to the MEK’s popularity and the society’s restiveness, the regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has decided to pull Ebrahim Raisi out of the ballot box to face the mullahs’ ‘sworn enemy’ and the explosive society. Raisi has played a major role in the 1988 massacre of 30,000 political prisoners, mainly the MEK members. But increasing oppression will further add to people’s enthusiasm to join the MEK’s call for a free and democratic Iran, which has terrified the regime.”
