The National Council of Resistance in Iran has their headquarters in France, with Maryam Rajavi as the President-Elect of the Transitional Government of a free Iran.
In addition, there are local supporter groups, established in Britain and many other countries, who are tireless in their efforts to procure the safety and well-being of the people of Ashraf and Liberty. They seek to promote awareness of the human rights violations taking place on a daily basis in Iran, the Iranian regime’s bid to become a nuclear power, and its activities and influence worldwide as a major exporter of terrorism.

It contains good information related to all the court actions to remove the PMOI/MEK from the various terrorist lists it was placed on for political reasons.
Includes a brief debunking of the Human Rights Watch (2005) and Rand (2009) reports with links to the first reports to counter them.
Also the Proscribed Organisations Committee report, November 2007, which resulted in the delisting of the PMOI by the UK government in 2008.

Simay Azadi - Live Iran National TV station showing real news and views, historical and satirical. Sadly only in Farsi although the website
Www.iranntv.com does have an English translation facility for the text items. Well worth a look.This is a lifeline for the people in Iran as it is their window to a world of hope and inspiration, where they can see the truth of what is happening in the wider world, especially news of the people of Ashraf and Camp Liberty, and all the efforts being made on their behalf by their Iranian family in exile and the growing brother and sisterhood of the International community..
It is also the source of information about what is really going on in the world, especially with regard to the Middle East, for millions of Iranians in exile around the world and for us non-Iranians also. It opens the doors of perception of the world and enables us to see only too clearly, regardless of the language barrier, how little real news is reported to us via the normal newspaper and television channels.
It receives no official funding, is very expensive to run and is an essential organ of the resistance movement. In Iran, it is an offence punishable by death to own a satellite dish which can receive this broadcast and the regime is always trying to find ways to block the signal, or disrupt the service. This is especially true in the run up to the elections of 14th June. Despite these challenges, it is estimated that over 40% of the population of Iran regularly watches simay azadi.
