And I would thank you more if you would have followed my example and provide us 
with a few sources/books/articles/speaches by various people, 
etc. etc. etc so that me, along with others, can figure out how you came 
to such a "strange" [I did my best not to use the word "ridiculous"] idea ?
Still the question remains the same:
While you were busy executing thousands of Army officers and force
retiring more than 8000 army personnels, what was "supposed" to protect
Iranian borders against "a possible" Iraqi attack in the absence of such Army ?
And assuming that you are correct, please explain to us ignorant students
of history, the "thing" that Iran's army was created to protect ?

And while you are thinking about the answers, I use this opportunity
to add a few words about the Mojahedin's organization:

I know that most of the Mojahedin's supporters secretly wish that
their "Mojahede Kabir", Mr. Masood Rajavi, would stay quite more
often and they did not have to resort to their bag of "rationals"
trying to explain away his quotes. Or at least he would not throw away
the old "Nameye Mojahed" and other publications and would refer to
his old sayings before he opens his mouth.

You see,  what one says BEFORE he has the power in his hands often is completly
different from what he will do when he actually HAS the power. Iran paid dearly
to learn this lesson. A textbook example is Khomeni himself. Another example
is Mr. Rajavi. It is like Hafez said this poem for today and for Mr. Rajavi
and his idol and role model of the time,  Khomeni:

	ei khosh An rooz ke mahake tajrobe Ayad be miAn
		tA siah roo shavad har ke dar eu ghash bAshad.

Now let us see what "mahake tajrobe" can provide for us..
Here is a brief insight into the mind of this recently
became "democtratic" Mojahede Kabir, Mr. Masood Rajavi:

     "Oh Great MojAhed [ mojAhede Aazam ] Hazrate Ayatollah
      Khomeni: By this Revolutinary order you have shown yet another light
      of Islamic justice(!) to the world....
      We congradulate you and anxiously hoping that, without
      paying slightest attention to some of anti-revolutionary
      make-friends [ pAdarmiAnihA ] and suspicioous passive 
      [ sAzeshkAr ] elemnets, kill all of them as fast as you can
      to the last person".                 

      [ Masood Rajavi, EtelAat newspaper, 27 Bahman 1357,  
	In a letter of congradulations to Khomeini for issuing
	the infamous order to set up Revolutionary Courts,  
	issued Thursday 26 Bahman 1357. This order started 
	the most savage waves of executions, following trials
	that lasted a few minutes for each defendant.]

This is the same "creature", who according to his courageous
and yet anonymous(!) supporter on this net, has indeed reserved the God given
right of being the one to:

	"...remind the foreign governments that it is not in their
	interest to support this terrorist regime and ignore Iranian
			         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	people's fundamental rights namely freedom and democracy... "
	         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	[Excerpts from "Re: Resistance's rep meet President" signed
	 by "Asghar", 16 Dec 1992 ]

Well ..seems like "due process in a just court" is not part of 
Iranian people's "fundamental rights" ..or at least Mr. Rajavi 
recently discovered it (Over a game of backgammon with Sadam Hosein, 
I suppose !).

Now let us see who helped to bring such a "terrorist regime" to power:

	"..according to the released CIA reports of that time,
	 before the downfall of the country almost all the terrible
	 murders, among them the cutting in pieces of several policemen
	 in Mashhad and savage murders of several civilians in
	 Rasht were done by members of an organization called Mojahedin 
	 Khalgh.  This organization was also responsible for the majority of 
	 the arsons, robberies, lootings, attacks on civilian houses,
	 attacks on many government agencies and false propaganda, through
	 their personnels who were trained in Lybia and various PLO 
	 training camps. During the revolution many people
	 were assasinated by this group and many houses were looted.
	 Those who attacked army headquarters, police stations and
	 banks were almost all members of Mojahedin Khalgh".

	 [ Dr. Robert L. Anderson, "The Rise of Khomeini", printed
	   in London, 1985, pp: 109-110 ]. 
 

I am sure that we will receive several mails from several Mojahede Saghirs
who will tell us in essence "By gones are by gones ! That was then. This
is now ! That was Mr. Rajavi, release 1.0. Why don't you refer to 
Mr. Rajavi, relese 2.0 ? ".

To that I must say:

	"Fool me once, shame on you ! Fool me twice, shame on me !"

or

	"Azmoode rA dobAre Azmoodan khatAst".

More on Mojahedin later ...
