Book Review:
Author: Jalil Amjadi
Publishing Date: December, 2004, 1st Edition
When the leaders and members of the organization of the People's Mujahedin of Iran manifested signs of pro-Marxist tendencies, and there was a subsequent official ideological shift among them from Islam; the Islamic militants reacted to this turn about by founding secret organizations for armed struggle against the Pahlavi regime in different cities and regions in an attempt to uphold their religious beliefs and continue with their struggle. The most notable of these groups are Ommat-e Vāhedeh (The Unified Nation), Badr, Fallāh, Tohidi-ye Saf, Falaq, Mansouroun, and Movvahedin.
The members of the above mentioned seven groups were most significantly active in locating and destroying the military and security bases of the Pahlavi regime. Many of these groups were tracked down and dissolved during the final years of the Pahlavi regime; however, on the eve of the Islamic Revolution, their surviving members took an active role in organizing the demonstrations.
This book entails an analysis of the history of struggles, formation, and the fate of these groups.

Operation Beit al-Moqaddas and Liberation of Khorramshahr
After Operation Fat’h al-Mobin, we traveled to Kermanshah and visited Sar-e-Pol-e-Zahab before heading to Ilam. During Operation Beit al-Moqaddas, the 27th Brigade was still receiving support from the West. We maintained contact with individuals who had previously worked in Area 7 and were now leading the brigade. It was through these connections that I learned about Operation Beit al-Moqaddas.Memoirs of Hujjat al-Islam Reza Motalebi
Hujjat al-Islam Reza Motalebi is a cleric from Isfahan. Before the revolution, he was the imam of the Fallah Mosque – which was later renamed Abuzar Mosque. By his presence and efforts, Abuzar Mosque soon became a base for supporters of the Imam and the revolution. After the victory of the revolution, he played a role in uniting forces and maintaining political vitality in southwest Tehran.The Necessity of Receiving Feedback in Oral History
Whenever we engage in a task, we naturally seek ways to evaluate our performance — to correct shortcomings and enhance strengths. Such refinement is only possible through the feedback we receive from others. Consider, for instance, a basketball player whose shots are consistently accurate; should he begin shooting blindfolded, his success rate would rapidly decline, as he would be deprived of essential feedback from each attempt.Sir Saeed
