A Look at Iran Regime’s Huge Terror Financing Scandal in Europe
By Abdolrahman

A
clear and explicit look at Iranian regime’s recent failed terrorist attempt
could help clearly understand why the regime decided to move forward with its
plot despite being faced with such unfavorable conditions. Wasn’t the regime
aware of the heavy price it had to pay even if the attempt succeeded? The
answer is definitely ‘Yes’, and the regime was fully aware of that.
The religious
dictatorship ruling Iran knows quite well that, unlike the past 40 years, the
world’s cameras are zooming in on the regime, with no sign of the past golden
era’s mystical rescuers to help the regime survive while turning a blind eye on
its crimes.
With the start of
Iranian people’s nationwide uprising, Tehran rulers were clearly aware that the
Iranian annual gathering held on June 30 in Paris would
put a head on the body of Iranian people’s uprising, calling on the world to
stand by the Iranian people. That’s why regime officials at the highest levels
of decision making, including Ali Khamenei, Hassan Rouhani, Foreign and
Intelligence ministers and high-ranking commanders of the Revolutionary Guards’
Quds Force, were planning for months to hit the driving force of the Iranian
opposition while investing on this specific recent terrorist attempt to prevent
the gathering from being held.
On January 9, 2018,
in early days of Iranian people’s uprising, Ali Khamenei pointed his finger at
his only serious adversary, namely the People'sMojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), saying the organization
had been behind the uprising and had planned for it from months before. A
little while later, planning the biggest terrorist act against the PMOI (MEK)
kicked off in the spider’s nest of the vilayat-e-faqih regime. Referring to the
plot, secretary of regime’s Supreme National Security Council ‘Ali Shamkhani’
officially announced that the regime would hit the PMOI (MEK) in such a
way that they would never know where they’d been hit from.
At noon on Saturday
June 30, 2018, a few hours before the Iranian Grand Gathering with more than
100,000 participants officially kicked off in Paris, Belgian police captured as
part of an extensive operation an Iranian regime’s terrorist group that were
carrying a powerful bomb due to go off in the grand gathering. Preliminary
investigations showed that third secretary of regime’s embassy in Vienna had
been in charge of the terror plot and had personally delivered the explosives
to the terrorist team in Luxemburg. With the terrorist diplomat and his
accomplices arrested, Khamenei and the entire mullahs’ regime were quick to try
their best to release Assadi from German police custody and help him escape to
Iran through Austria. Organizing numerous terrorist attacks against regime
dissidents in the past, the mullahs’ embassy in Austria is regime’s most
important terrorist cell in Europe.
It should also be
pointed out that on July 12, 1989, only 40 days after Khomeini’s death,
regime’s new terror strategy officially kicked off when Tehran-dispatched
Guardsmen opened fire in a Vienna apartment, assassinating Dr. Abdolrahman
Ghassemloo, former Secretary General of Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran,
while he was negotiating with Rafsnajani’s representatives. The assassination
was carried out by the Revolutionary Guardsman ‘Jafari Sahraroudi’. A few
months later, on April 24, 1990, mullahs’ regime linked terrorists assassinated
Dr. Kazem Rajavi on his way home in the outskirts of Geneva, Switzerland. Yet
the list doesn’t stop here: on August 6, 1991, Shahpoor Bakhtiar was
assassinated in Paris; on September 17, 1992, Dr. Sadegh Sharafkandi, also a
former Secretary General of Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran, was
assassinated in Berlin, Germany; and on March 15, 1993, Mohammad-Hossein
Naghdi, NCRI’s representative in Italy was
assassinated in Rome.
Although thanks to
the West’s appeasement policy toward the bloodthirsty Iranian regime the
mullahs’ all previous state terrorism cases were archived unopened, but
regime’s recent terror attempt case will not only remain open until fully
investigated, but will also help unarchive regime’s previous terrorist acts
across the world. With the start of Iranian people’s uprising, domestic and
international conditions have seriously turned against the mullahs; an
irreversible situation that’s going to remain in place until an imminent regime
collapse.
Had the recent
terrorist act succeeded, it could definitely turn into a huge disaster not only
for Iranian people, but for the international community as well, as prominent
figures and delegations from every country in the world had attended the
gathering to express their support for the Iranian people’s uprising and the
NCRI.
Considering a number
of prominent US figures and former office-holders present in Paris gathering
could potentially be victims of an explosion and Iranian regime’s terrorism, US
Department of State quickly announced that it will pursue the case to the end.
Department of State quickly announced that it will pursue the case to the end.
What’s more
necessary now than ever, however, is to shut down Iranian terrorist regime’s
embassies across the world, in European countries in particular, along with its
diplomatic, press and propaganda centers, as well as its so-called literary,
cultural and trade associations, all of which are involved in espionage and
terrorist activities.
Although there’s a
long history of regime’s terrorist acts, especially the ones carried out during
Hashemi Rafsanjani’s term in office, but failure of the recent terrorist
attempt not only demonstrated to the public opinion the place and importance of
the only democratic alternative to the Iranian regime, but once again drew the
world’s attention to the state terrorism of the mullahs’ regime and the huge
dimensions of its efforts to hit the NCRI.
A look at the record
of Iran’s ruling dictatorship makes it quite clear that the policy of
repression at home and terrorism abroad is essential to regime’s survival, as
regime’s historical, political, social and cultural capacities is in sharp
contrast with freedom and co-existence among nations, and that regime’s
repression and terrorism will continue to extend until it’s overthrown. That’s
the reason why Iran’s ruling mullahs were going to bring a huge humanitarian
disaster upon the international community at a time when the Iranian people’s
nationwide uprising against the regime keeps going on.
So, in line with
Iranian people’s continued uprising and as the end of mullahs’ dominance gets
closer, it won’t be unexpected to see the state terrorism of the wounded
poisonous snake of an Iranian regime attempt even more terrorist acts. That’s
why it’s necessary to double down the support and protection for Iranian
people’s only true democratic alternative.
