Just before Christmas,
The Washington Post reported that former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani, former secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge and two other former Bush officials took a trip to France, home of the cheese eating surrender monkeys, to demand President Obama take the MEK (Mujaheddin) off the FTO list. The MEK supported Saddam Hussein in Iraq, killed U.S. soldiers in the 70s in Iran and
has been known to routinely aim its attacks at government buildings in crowded cities. Rudy, Tom and friends want the MEK cleared off the list because they wish to depose the current Iranian regime. In other words, the MEK engaged in terroristic activities some in support of Americas enemies and some which killed American soldiers but thats water under the bridge because the hard right needs someone to do the dirty work.
Hard Right Wants Support for Terrorist Organization
I don't fully trust this story;

As Glenn Greenwald at Salon points out, even the Bush administration declared the group to
maintain the capacity and will to commit terrorist acts. Now officials from that administration are doing exactly what they criticized non-conservatives from doing. Worse yet, this is exactly the type of behavior which has endangered U.S. citizens and servicemen and women in the past, from our support of the Afghan Mujahideen to Manuel Noriega and beyond.
All the quotes are taken out of context, thus none of them start with capital letters. the blue is just an assumption based accusation.
Salon is a very far left site, and proud of it.
I'll need links from a seperate source before I buy any of this.
