The Iraqi Government’s plan to disperse the residents of Camp Ashraf inside Iraq is prelude to a massacre. The residents will never agree to forcible relocation and reject what amounts to a license to murder them. The Iranian regime, which views Ashraf residents as an existential threat, will not stop until the complete annihilation of the residents. The Tehran regime wants to finish what it failed to do in 1988, when it massacred 30,000 MEK members and sympathizers. The United States is legally and morally obligated to ensure the safety and security of Camp Ashraf residents since it signed an agreement with each resident to protect them. As such, the U.S. bears direct responsibility for any bloodshed in Ashraf and must do all that is necessary to stop another carnage.
