“The MEK had fully entered the scene. They sought to take advantage of the victims and use their full media potential. Unfortunately, some naïve people fell into this trap, and the system received major blows,” Mohammad Dehgan, Ebrahim Raisi’s legal advisor, said on November 28, according to the state-run Mehr News Agency.
Protests continue to erupt across Iran, despite numerous attempts by authorities to put an end to them. The persistence of what many regards as Iran’s new democratic “revolution” disproves the notion that these protests are all unorganized or leaderless. Indeed, as the uprising continues, officials, including top military commanders and the regime’s president, Ebrahim Raisi, recognize the role of Iran’s organized opposition group, the People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), particularly the recognizable pattern of courageous confrontation with security forces by the MEK’s “Resistance Units.”
For more than four decades, Iran’s theocratic dictatorship has justified its rule in part with a narrative that says it is the only viable option for the governance of an Iranian nation.
For more than four decades, Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and state media have sought to demonize the leading pro-democracy Resistance group, the People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), claiming the MEK lacks internal support. But when the regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei chose Ebrahim Raisi as the regime’s president last year, the regime gave plenty of grounds to doubt the sincerity of that assertion.
