Maybe a White House invitation is coming like Reagan afforded Mujahideen fighters in the 1980s. They and Contra killers were called freedom fighters. Perhaps MKO assassins will be described the same way.
Press TV said MKO operatives "murdered over 17,000 Iranians since" the 1979 revolution. In the 1980s, they operated from Iraq near Iran's border. They cooperated with Saddam in massacring Kurds.
Tehran "repeatedly called on the Iraqi government to expel the group." US pressure keeps them there.
