Mossad Admits Collusion With MKO Terrorists
TEL AVIV (Dispatches) – The occupying regime of Israel’s Mossad spy agency has openly acknowledged that it cooperated with MKO terrorists over a plot to implicate Iran in an alleged bomb attack in Paris last month.
The plot coincided with President Hassan Rouhani’s visit to Austria and Switzerland and those allegedly arrested on suspicion of links to the Islamic Republic turned out to be MKO members.
Mossad said it had worked with its Belgian, French and German counterparts to uncover an alleged cell that was planning to bomb a June 30 rally in the French capital organized by the MKO, Israeli website Headshot reported on Thursday.
The MKO event went ahead as planned and was attended by some of the former U.S., European and Saudi officials, including former Saudi spy chief, Prince Turki al-Faisal, who also delivered a speech.
The Mossad claim puts the occupying regime of Israel next to Saudi Arabia, which Tehran says has been colluding with the MKO and providing it with financial support since the Iraqi-imposed war on Iran in the 1980s.
Iran has called the scenario a "sinister false flag ploy," timed to overshadow President Rouhani’s visit to Europe.
"How convenient: Just as we embark on a presidential visit to Europe, an alleged Iranian operation and its 'plotters' arrested," Foreign Minister Muhammad Javad Zarif wrote last month.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry said it had evidence showing the suspects arrested in Belgium were among MKO members. It also announced Iran's readiness to work to clarify the real aspects of what he described as a "pre-planned scenario" against the Islamic Republic.
