The Honorable John Kerry
Secretary of State
U.S. Department of State
2201 C Street, NW
Washington, D.C. 20520
Dear Secretary Kerry:
I write to share my concerns regarding the rocket attack on Camp Liberty, Iraq, that occurred on October 29, 2015.
According to the reports I received, more than 20 members of the Iranian dissident group Mujahedeen-e-Khalq were killed and many more were injured. The reports also indicate that Iraqi police have confirmed that at least 16 Iranian-made rockets targeted Camp Liberty, which houses approximately 2,200 members of MEK – a group that has been given refugee status and is protected by the United Nations High Commission on Refugees.
I urge the State Department to investigate the facts of this senseless act of terrorism, and make every effort to ensure the safety of the inhabitants of Camp Liberty in the future.
Thank you for your attention.
Sincerely,
Tom McClintock
