How MEK’s founders defied the Shah’s regime and inspired Iran’s freedom movement

 

2023

 

This week marked the 51st anniversary of the execution of Mohammad Hanifnejad, Saeid Mohsen, and Ali Asghar Badizadegan, the founders of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK). These courageous individuals, whose crime was to desire freedom in their country, were executed by the Shah regime on May 25, 1972, after months of resistance under brutal torture.

 

Hanifnejad, Mohsen, and Badizadegan founded the PMOI/MEK on September 6, 1965, amidst an era fraught with relentless repression against dissidents and political activists. Iran’s despotic ruler, Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, ruthlessly compelled all opposition groups and movements to cower in silence and subservience. Under the iron grip of his savage secret police, the SAVAK , Pahlavi imposed a draconian regime, leaving no room for dissent.

 

The audacious choice made by the trio defied the prevailing odds and shattered societal norms, prevailing against the backdrop of an era steeped in despair due to the disappointments of previous freedom movements. Undeterred by the immense challenge, their objective remained resolute: to topple the oppressive Shah regime and forge a path toward freedom and democracy in Iran. With unwavering determination, the founders of the MEK embarked on an arduous and treacherous voyage guided by principles that broke new ground in Iranian history.

 

Over the years, the MEK founders diligently cultivated the organization’s ranks, recruiting influential intellectuals and elites from Iranian society. They imparted upon them the organization’s core principles, which would later shape Iran’s foremost opposition movement. However, the burgeoning freedom movement caught the attention of the SAVAK, which arrested the founders in 1971 and tortured them brutally.

 

During an interview with Iran National Television (INTV), Mohammad Hayati, a member of the MEK and former political prisoner during the oppressive rule of the Shah, recounted the harrowing tortures endured by the MEK founders at the hands of SAVAK. Hayati revealed the brutal torture inflicted upon them, providing a chilling testament to the atrocities committed by the regime’s enforcers.

 

“The operatives of the SAVAK and Police Intelligence Unit used the most ruthless torture against regime opponents,” Hayati said.

 

Hayati was arrested along with Mohammad Hanifnejad. “Hosseini, one of the savage torturers, was there with several other torturers,” Hayati said. “Hosseini started beating Mohammad with the end of his pistol, breaking his nose and splattering blood all over his face. This was even before we were taken to Evin. Inside Evin prison, I endured and witnessed even more torture.”

 

Hayati further bore witness to the unspeakable torment inflicted upon Ali Asghar Badizadegan, a fellow co-founder of the MEK. Badizadegan was apprehended a few months before Hanifnejad’s arrest. The merciless SAVAK subjected him to unimaginable brutality in a desperate attempt to extract information regarding the whereabouts of Hanifnejad and other prominent MEK leaders.

 

“They tortured him for one month, and he didn’t give them any information. They burned him so badly that his skin and flesh were disfigured. He had to undergo surgery three times before he could walk again. And he couldn’t even stand anymore,” Hayati said. “When they brought Badizadegan to our cell, he couldn’t stand. It was typical savagery of the Savak.”

 

However, the MEK founders refused to yield in their fight for the people’s freedom. Not having been able to break their will, the Shah regime eventually executed them on May 25, 1972, along with Mahmood Asgarizadeh and Abdol Rasool Mesginfam, two members of the MEK Central Committee. They paid the ultimate price, sacrificing their lives to safeguard the rights of their fellow citizens, ensuring that the flame of resistance burned brightly. Following their martyrdom, Massoud Rajavi assumed leadership of the MEK, carrying the torch of their unwavering dedication forward.

 

The sacrifices made by the MEK founders remain an enduring testament to their unwavering determination and unwavering loyalty, continuing to inspire Iranians worldwide even today. The activities of the Resistance Units serve as a powerful testament to their enduring influence, serving as a wellspring of inspiration for the Iranian people and the younger generation alike.

 

Particularly the MEK Resistance Units stand as a groundbreaking force, shining as a guiding light for uprisings and the pursuit of freedom. They serve as an extension of the dedicated MEK members and 120,000 martyrs who selflessly sacrificed their lives over the span of five decades in the name of liberty. These units embody the spirit of a rebellious and unwavering generation, playing a pivotal role in igniting and driving nationwide uprisings.

Deciphering Iran:The Political Evolution of the Islamic Republic and U.S. Foreign Policy After September 11

 

2024

 

In the aftermath of 9/11, the Bush administration has pursued a robust and aggressive foreign policy. The invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq have not only placed the Bush administration in conflict with longstanding U. S. allies and the majority of global public opinion, but it has also found itself in an awkward position vis-à-vis the Islamic Republic of Iran, the dominant regional power in Southwest Asia and nemesis of the United States following the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Since the Revolution, U. S.-Iranian relations have been suspicious, hostile, and at times violent. From a historical perspective, it is increasingly evident that the unseating of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the U. S.'s close ally of more than three decades, was a watershed event with ramifications that continue to affect Iran, Southwest Asia, and the United States. Today, the pursuit of U. S. interests and the quest for regional stability—in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Persian Gulf, the Caspian Sea, and Central Asia—leads in numerous and overlapping paths squarely back to Iran.

 

The Bush Doctrine is defined by an emphasis on the right of the United States to use preemptive force against terrorists and their state sponsors; it has at its core a moral worldview that starkly contrasts good versus evil, and it makes no distinction between those who carry out acts of terrorism and those who harbor terrorists.1 The consequences in U. S. foreign policy have included an aversion to nuance in favor of "moral clarity," and President Bush's message to the rest of the world that "either you are either with us, or you are with the terrorists."2 In this context, it is no surprise that the Bush administration's approach to Iran has shown little appreciation for the impact of its actions upon the competition for political power in Iran today between radical and modernist Islamists—two prominent factions within the ruling clergy that disagree profoundly on the role of Islam in society.

 

The significance of the differences between radical and modernist Islamists is crucial due to the de facto compression of all political interaction in Iran after 1979 into the only remaining framework and discourse: Islamism, or the use of the religion of Islam as a basis for political mobilization. Political agendas and policymaking among the clerical elite in contemporary Iran are therefore shaped by factional differences rooted in Islamist ideology, which are of great relevance to U. S.-Iranian relations. The radical Islamists are widely referred to in the West as "conservatives" because of their adherence to dogmatic Islamic extremism, and they maintain a hold on the Islamic Republic's unelected but dominant centers of power. They also generally oppose normalized relations with the U. S. The modernist Islamists are widely referred to in the West as "reformists" due to their opposition to the monopoly on religious interpretation and political power claimed by the radicals. They favor greater democratization and the restoration of normal ties with the United States as part of a broader reversal of Iran's post-1979 isolation. However, the factionalization of Islamists in Iran transcends this simplified explanation. A more comprehensive understanding of the evolution of Islamism in Iran—one that accounts for the roots of the radicals and modernists as well as subgroups within those factions—is warranted and will be offered in the following analysis.

 

Despite clear indications that the continued political viability of the modernists benefits U. S. interests directly, the Bush administration's hardline posture toward Iran since 2002 has helped to erode the ability of the modernists to argue for transparency and moderation in Iran's foreign and domestic policies. Inflammatory U. S. actions in recent years, such as the notorious "axis of evil" accusation during Bush's 2003 State of the Union address, have provided the radical Islamists with a powerful political weapon to use against their modernist rivals. By increasing its pressure on Iran to the point where all factions of the Iranian regime perceive an immediate national security threat, the Bush administration has facilitated the reversal of the fortunes of the modernists [End Page 159] and the seizing of the political initiative—and Iran's foreign policy—by the very radical Islamists it seeks to sideline.

 

U. S.-Iranian relations today are not unlike the proverbial elephant in the room. Most aspects of U. S. interests in Southwest Asia are affected by it, but the question has been effectively ignored by the Bush administration. Addressing the U. S.-Iranian relationship to more effectively achieve post-9/11 U. S. foreign policy goals is a process that transcends the trite framework of containing Iranian radicals or engaging Iranian reformers. Rather, it requires the development of a coherent conceptual and strategic framework by U. S. policymakers upon which to base any future interaction with Iran. For policymakers and interested observers, this implies a sustained effort to appreciate the historical importance of Iran's ongoing political evolution and its consequences for Iranian foreign policy and U. S. interests in Southwest Asia.This article will seek to shed light upon the connections between these dimensions by tracing the foundations and evolution of Iran's internal political dynamics along with the impact and outcomes of the Bush administration's policy regarding Iran since 9/11.
