GOP Lawmaker: Securing Iranian Dissidents in Iraq Will Allow US to ‘Reclaim Some of Our Honor’
May 19, 2016- Published on Cnsnews.com
Securing the safe resettlement of some 2,000 Iranian dissidents housed at Baghdad’s Camp Liberty would allow the United States to “reclaim some of our honor as a country,” Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) said Wednesday, alluding to the way the U.S.-backed, Iran-friendly Iraqi government has treated them.
“It has been a black mark on our country on several – on many occasions, when we did not stick with the people who stuck with us,” Rohrabacher said during a House Foreign Affairs Committee markup of a bipartisan resolution providing for the safety of the camp’s residents.

IACNT Protests the Attack on Camp Liberty
IACNT, November 2nd, 2015- On October 29, 2015, 7:40 PM local time, Camp Liberty, home to the Iranian regime's largest opposition group, the PMOI, was attacked by 80 rockets, resulting in 24 deaths and dozens with critical injuries. This is the fourth rocket attack on the Camp since 2012. Amnesty International reported: “The attack caused widespread destruction as it hit the camp’s electricity generators, while hundreds of residents have been left homeless after at least 200 trailers were destroyed.” It is without a doubt that the Iranian regime is behind this attack, as the Regime considers Camp Liberty and its residents to be its most direct threat to power.
