Is the U.S. supporting the terrorist group known as the "MEK" to overthrow the Iranian Government? (http://ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/featured-articles/2018/may/11/that-time-john-bolton-promised-regime-change-in-iran-before-2019/)
Sure looks like it...
"So the US president has just authorized aggressive sanctions against Iran after a highly dishonest speech to the American people, and now there's a well-funded extremist group (the MEK) all set and groomed to become the "viable opposition" to the government of that country with the blessings of the CIA and the president's bloodthirsty National Security Advisor.
Who is the MEK? The "People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran", also known as the "Mojahedin-e Khalq" or "MEK" is a group of a few thousand people who are widely considered a cult, using very cult-like methods of indoctrination including exerting control over the personal and sex lives of its members and forcing them to go through weekly "ideological cleansings".
Previously listed as a terrorist organization by the US government because it has killed Americans and has an extensive history of committing acts of terrorism, in 2012 the MEK was taken off the State Department's terrorist list by Secretary of State and virulent Iran hawk Hillary Clinton. Clinton's job, incidentally, is currently occupied by another notorious Iran hawk in Mike Pompeo. As noted in 2012 by the New York Times, a bizarre amount of lobbying went into getting MEK taken off the terror list. Among those lobbying for the move was former CIA Director James "Ha ha, of course we meddle in foreign democracies" Woolsey and other CIA affiliates. Rudy Giuliani, currently one of President Trump's attorneys, led a "regime change" chant at an MEK event in March.
Sound familiar? Maybe sorta kinda exactly the same as what we've seen in the buildups to staged coups on Syria, Libya and Ukraine?
Americans have been reluctant to consent to boots on the ground in the Middle East since Iraq, which is why the US war machine has been switching its emphasis to psyops, armed regional militant groups, and airstrikes/drone warfare. But just because there are no flag-draped coffins flying home doesn't mean that America will be any less culpable if violence erupts in Iran in the wake of crushing, destabilizing Iran sanctions. It will have been deliberate, and the bloodshed, suffering and chaos caused will be on this administration's hands."
