This is a book of memoirs by an Iranian soldier, serving with the
Ground Forces of the Iranian Army during the period 24 Tir-29 Esfand 
1366 in the southern sector of the warfront near the Karkheh river.
The book is very realistic and portrays the everyday life of the
average soldier in touching, sad, and at times funny ways. From
occasional skirmishes with Iraqi forces, to preparations for an
offensive, to the never ending battle against the desert rats, the
heat, lack of water, instances of "friendly fire", and the hobbies
of the soldiers living in small trenches dug in the ground, games
they play on each other, their relationship to superior officers,
the situation of civilians living in villages close to the front,
and the reality of living in fear ... it's all there and makes for
interesting reading, free from the rhetoric of war and interspersed
with the author's thoughts and poems of Moshiri and Sepehri ...

The book is in a series of war memoirs by Iranian combatants
and released POW's and is by far the most readable. Other books
in the series include:

ramlhA-ye teshneh / jafar rabii.

Salam:

Here is some Soccer news from Iran (courtesy of a friend):

News of KV (38th year anniversary, # 1969):

    Piroozi will face Nissan of Japan for the Cup-Winners-Cup of Asia some
time in the near future.  Nissan has five national team players and a
Brazilian player and are well organized.  This will be the third round.  The
first cup was won by Piroozi and the second one by Nissan last year. 
The bad weather in Iran and Japan might postpone this until next spring.

    Piroozi beat Paas (last year's champ) 3-0 few days ago and
heads the B group of the Iranian League.  Two group each with eight teams
form the Iranian League.  Tractor-Saazi of Tabriz ???? heads group
A, followed by Keshavarz (Ministry of Agriculture team) of Tehran. 
Esteghlal of Tehran (Taj) is fourth.  In Group B, Malavan of Anzali
(Bandar Pahlavi) follows Piroozi ahead of Paas.  The semi-finals should be
finished by now.  The top two team will play for the championship in
home-away format.

    Anzali will have another team in the First Divison next year, which is
Chouka of Anzali).  Chooka stands  for CHOOb va KAghaz of Iran.  They won
the second division and go to first division along with Sepahan of Isfahan. 
The coach is Ghafoor Jahani.

    The Iran's WC quals will take place in late June (starting 8 of TEER),
starting with games in Tehran.  Oman, Syria and Taiwan will play six games
in five days in Tehran and then they all go to Damascus, Syria for the final
games.  Burma (Myanmar) has decided not to take part.  Iran vs. Syria games
are scheduled for the last days in both cities.

    Paas will present Iran in the Asian Clubs Cup in Bahrain starting
January 10, 1993.  Two groups (4 teams in each) will play and the winners of
each group battle for the Asian championship.  Esteghlal won it last year.

    Asia's soccer federation, after watching the tape of the Iran-Japan
match, had decided to have two players sit out only one international match.
 The three others (Peevas, Kermani-Moghadmam and ???) still are banned
from playing club and international matches for ONE YEAR.  Iran has asked
for reconsideration.

If you think that Mojahedin's goals are to be the "spearhead
in the struggle against the world imperialism", then your
understanding of Mojahedin is very much questionable.
Mojahedin's objective have always been to bring peace and
democracy to Iran. To get the job done, it is necessary (but
not sufficient) to;

	1) isolate the regime from the international body.
	2) Get the resistance recognized as a legitimate
	   force against the current regime.

Date: Wed, 30 Dec 1992 11:23:18 GMT

	TOKYO (UPI) -- Japan will chair the United Nations Security Council
during January in a period of uncertainty and conflict, government
officials said Wednesday.
	It is Japan's first chairmanship during its current two-year term as
a non-permanent member.
	The Security Council seats five permanent members -- the United
States, China, Britain, France and Russia, and 10 non-permanent members.
	Chairmanship of the Security Council rotates among the 15 members on
a one-month basis.
	Japan will take the chair at a time when deliberations are continuing
on the how to end the violence in Yugoslavia, restore stability to
Somalia and order to Cambodia.
	The need to designate replacements for U.S.-led multi-national forces
in Somalia may come up in January, the Kyodo News Service said.
	On the U.N.-sponsored peace effort in Cambodia, some council members
may demand sanctions against the Khmer Rouge, a guerrilla group under
the leadership of the deposed leader Pol Pot that killed more than 1
million Cambodians in the late 1970s.
	The Khmer Rouge refused to join the U.N.-guided peace process in
Cambodia that began with the signing of a peace accord in Paris with
three other poltical groups in October, 1991.
	The guerrilla group has repeatedly detained U.N. peacekeeping
personnel recently.
	The Security Council also faces other problems, including the
deportations from Israel of over 400 Palestinians, and the planned
dispatch of U.N. peacekeeping forces to Macedonia in former Yugolslavia,
the government said.

Hello Everybody:
	This is a requst for help. A much needed help. First the Story:
About 45 days ago, a helicopter carrying 13 Iranian professionals (Most
were employees of MAHAB Company, a mining company in Iran, and some Uni-
versity Professors) was disappeared around Khoozestan. Since then, Iran 
has only broadcast the above news without much detail. The efforts on 
finding the remains of the helicopter (in case of a crash) has not been
successful. It seems for whatever reason extensive efforts have been 
concentrated on finding the remains of the chopper. At the same time 
families of the people in the helicopter are on the verge of nervous
break down (can you imagine what they are going through?). They had been
told by friends, that "Voice of America"(VOA) and "Radio Israel"(RI)
have reported (sometime around same date) that an Iranian helicopter
has been sighted to land on Iraqi land. This was some relief for the 
families (It meant they are still alive). In a contact with Farsi
section of (VOA) they denied ever reporting such matter. Efforts 
to contact (RI) has not been successful. Efforts to get some help
from Associated Press (AP) was not successful either. AP will not help
those who are not subscribers, and one can not subscribe unless he/she 
is a journalist. AP told me that I might be able to look at the news
that was on the wire at those days if I have access to "dialog" which
is a commercial computer network.  Since then I have not been able to 
get any lead on how to get access to "dialog". 
	So DEAR FRIENDS,  on behalf of the families of the victoms
of this incident, I would like to beg your cooperation in finding
any information on this matter. You may send your replies to :
shahab@petrocom.comer.wvu.wvnet.edu   or post it here, that I will
regularly check. Any Info., no matter how small and unimportant
it may seem to you, might help, PLEASE Dd bring all of us together,
                THANK ALL OF YOU>>>>this might be an effort that
                                    couldto bring all of us together
                                    and make this news group a

   DEATH PENALTY NEWS DECEMBER 1992              AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL

   A SUMMARY OF EVENTS ON THE DEATH PENALTY AND MOVES TOWARDS WORLDWIDE
   ABOLITION

   IRAN: Seventeen prisoners convicted of drug smuggling by Iranian
   revolutionary courts were executed in Tehran on 18 October 1992, according
   to a report released by the Jomhuri Eslami newspaper on 20 October.

   According to an AI report "IRAN: Executions of prisoners continue unabated"
   (AI Index: MDE 13/18/92), the number of executions carried out in Iran for
   criminal offences, especially for drug trafficking offences, increased
   sharply from January 1989 onwards. In 1989 AI recorded over 1500 executions
   announced for criminal offences, more than 1000 of them for drug-
   trafficking offences. In 1990 at least 750 prisoners were executed, 441 of
   them for drug-related offences. In 1991 AI recorded at least 775
   executions. The total figure in each year is expected to be considerably
   higher. According to Iranian press reports in 1991, the majority of death
   sentences were passed for drug-smuggling offences. AI is deeply concerned
   that the nationwide anti-drug campaign, launched in 1989, has led to
   increasingly arbitrary arrest and summary trial procedures rapidly followed
   by executions.

Question: what is the source of Amnetsy International?
                 
If it is MKO, quite a few people in SCI alone have questioned their reliability
and intentions.
         
If not, what is the source? Do they have their own, "unbiased" sources stationed
in various parts of Iran? I apologize if I seem paranoid and doubt the
correctness of AI's figures. I know AI is supposed to be beyond doubt but
I don't have a lot of faith in human nature and AI is run by humans!

Saied, you should get them to do a balance story on the Saudi's waste of
money on U.S. arms, the waste of U.S. taxpayers' dollars to feed the
Israeli war machine which includes atomic weapons, etc.. You might also
get them to mention that if it were not for U.S. sanctions, Boeing Corp.
could go ahead with the proposed deal to sell over $1 billion in
passenger planes to Iran Air, thus providing jobs to American plane
workers which are for peace rather than for manufacturing warplanes. 

You might also get them to point out that Iran is naturally endowed with
uranium ore and that it is normal for a country to seek to utilize its
resources. You might also get them to mention that unlike Israel or
Iraq, Iran allows international inspection of nuclear projects in
accordance with the dictates of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and
the mandate of the International Atomic Energy Agency (which has
declared that, from what it has seen, Iran is only seeking peaceful uses
of nuclear resources). 

Well, we can only hope that the story will be balanced. Thanks anyway
for informing us.

you know, i have been reading this long and arduous argument between the
mogahid supporter and the mugahid haters and a lot of accusations have been
hurled one way and another. however have never seen any evidence that the
mugahid (mojahid, whatever) are the saviours to iran? could the pro-mko's
please present some evidence please? and could the anti-mko's please present
their own? no accusations, evidence.
