my dear

a group (mek) that collaborates with the enemy and attacks his own land in time of war has no place in my resistance against the regime. many of my school friends and cousins died fighting saddam and the west and now you claim they should be trusted in power. not for me thank you. we will defeat the mullahs from within the country. anyone who thinks otherwise is very confused and directionless.

Daniel Pipes replies:

I said nothing about trusting the MEK in power, just working with it against a common foe.
