There was no third option. They wanted to wipe out the MEK at the prison-like Camp Liberty by missiles or if necessary by ground assaults, or force the residents towards betrayal by intimidating them.<\/p>\n<p>During a well-organized, great and historic relocation, which is considered a victorious turning point in the 52-year history of the organization, the MEK broke the hostile siege, maintaining its organization\u2019s integrity intact. The successful relocation has changed the position of Iran\u2019s resistance from a defensive stance to an aggressive one and has paved the way for preparing for the final steps to free Iran from dictatorship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The \u201cGreat exodus\u201d: A displacement from the focal point of danger to fulfill the strategy of \u201cA thousand Ashrafs\u201d and the \u201cResistance units\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When we speak of the resistance units, this means that the regime has reached to its final days. The resistance units are the Liberation Army\u2019s units that are scattered throughout Iran. We are at the phase of regime change and there are protests and uprisings in various cities every day. The question is what the role of the resistance units is in all these.<\/p>\n<p>The role of the resistance units is to encourage, organize, and direct the uprisings. They lead the uprisings and push them forward.<\/p>\n<p>The fact is that there is an organized resistance, the Liberation Army of Iran and its resistance units guarantee the continuation of the uprisings and the overthrow of the clerical regime.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the reason that the further we advance, the more the uprisings deepen, and get stronger, and the forces of the uprisings become tougher and more intrepid. And all these are the result of the magnificent changes in the circumstances since the transfer of the MEK members from Iraq to Albania. A change so undeniable that even the mullah regime\u2019s authorities and leaders admit to the role of the MEK in the development and spread of the resistance units.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7448\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7448\" style=\"width: 511px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7448\" src=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/1-min-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"MEK\" width=\"511\" height=\"288\" onerror=\"this.src='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';this.srcset='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/1-min-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/1-min.jpg 466w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 511px) 100vw, 511px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7448\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">MEK supporters celebrating the safe relocation of all MEK members to Albania<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The MEK \u2019s \u2018Great exodus\u2019 from Iraq, the source of strategic development Introduction, The first week of September recalls several important events in the history of the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK), the main Iranian opposition group; the foundation of the organization, the election of the organization\u2019s Secretary-General, and the departure of the last [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":7453,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[199,59,52,58,71],"class_list":["post-7447","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articles","tag-1988-massacre","tag-iranian-opposition","tag-iranian-resistance","tag-pmoi-mek","tag-regime-change"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
