Summary
In the 1960s, a group of student intellectuals formed to oppose the Shah of Iran and became an enemy of the clerical regime of Ayatollah Khomeini following the 1979 Revolution. U.S. officials twisted the students' story in a misguided attempt to appease the Iranian government. In "The Ayatollahs and the MEK: Iran's Crumbling Influence Operation," Ambassador, Lincoln P. Bloomfield, Jr., a former senior defense and foreign policy official who served three presidents over five administrations in the Pentagon, the White House and the U.S. State Department, presents breaking revelations and documents compelling evidence that the Islamic Republic of Iran's organized opposition, the Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), and its parliament-in-exile, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), have been falsely portrayed in Washington and around the world for years
