Return of the ... One True King (part IX)
Iran is on the block.
The Bush regime has just declared that the 3,800 or so surviving members of the Mujahedeen e Khalq (MEK or MKO) or National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) or People's Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI) that it held at Camp Ashraf, after having bombed them during the invasion of Iraq, and having declared them status terrorists, and having declared a cease-fire with them (so there was firing to cease), and having found the MEK to be a terrorist organization (since 1997) that has previously carried out armed opperations against US targets is ... cordially welcomed to the status of protected persons (non-belligerents) under the Fourth Geneva Protocol, ending the risk of collective punishment or forced deportation.
