Welcome back to Part 2 of Forgiven and Forgotten: MEK.

In Part 1, we focused solely on the years 1972 to 1976, when the Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) murdered three American military personnel and three American contractors in Iran, all under the banner of “fighting the Shah” and launching their own revolution.

Now, we dig deeper.

Part 2 will focus entirely on the year 1972, the beginning of MEK’s violent campaign, when they planted bombs across Tehran, targeted American officials, and killed Iranian civilians.

This is the first layer that MEK seeks to erase: the true nature of the Mojahedin.

Don’t fall for the “freedom fighter” myth. The MEK wasn’t resisting oppression; they were resisting modernity itself.

The MEK has spent decades trying to erase this history. These names, these faces, these headlines, nearly all vanished from the public record. There was no internet in 1972. No cloud backups. And the MEK’s long game has been to bury what it once proudly claimed.

At the time, he was serving as Chief of the Air Force Section of the Military Assistance Advisory Group (MAAG) in Iran, a senior post he had held since July 1969.
