Abstract The 1979 Islamic Revolution of Iran was based and formed upon the concept of Khomeinism, the religious, political, and social ideas of Ayatullah Ruhollah Khomeini. While the Iranian revolution was carried out with the slogans of independence, freedom, and Islamic Republic, Khomeini's framework gave it a specific impetus for the unity of people, religious culture, and leadership. Khomeinism was not just an effort, on a religious basis, to alter a national system. It included and was dependent upon the projection of a clash beyond a “national” struggle, including was a clash of ideology with that associated with the United States. Analysing the Iran-US relationship over the past century and Khomeini’s interpretation of it, this thesis attempts to show how the Ayatullah projected "America" versus Iranian national freedom and religious pride.

  • TAKING BACK the NEIGHBORHOOD the IRGC Provincial Guard’S Mission to Re-Islamize Iran
    THE WASHINGTON INSTITUTE FOR NEAR EAST POLICY n JUNE 2020 n PN81 Saeid Golkar TAKING BACK THE NEIGHBORHOOD The IRGC Provincial Guard’s Mission to Re-Islamize Iran During 2019, the Islamic Republic of Iran erupted in nearly simultaneous public protests in cities across the country. Thousands of citizens stopped traffic along major highways, marched, and shouted complaints about the gasoline price hike that had ostensibly sparked the demonstrations in the first place. They also aired their broader complaints against the leadership. Indeed, more than forty years after the country’s Islamic Revolution, the Iranian regime has become more repressive than ever, with an apparatus that attempts to reach into every facet of life and society. The protests, for their part, were brutally quelled through force. This was a familiar experience for Iranians seeking to express their displeasure. Scholars and journalists have produced a growing body of literature on political repression in Iran and the regime’s oppressive tools, including the police and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in general.1 © 2020 THE WASHINGTON INSTITUTE FOR NEAR EAST POLICY.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs' if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Nemesis: Oil and Missiles in the 21St Century (Part 1)
    ! 1! ! NEMESIS: OIL AND MISSILES IN THE 21st CENTURY PART 1 of 3 SERIALIZED STUDY BY – CAPT. David L.O. Hayward Australian Army Reserve (Retd.) ! ! ! ! ! 2! NEMESIS: OIL AND MISSILES IN THE 21st CENTURY “The country that faced down the tyranny of fascism and communism is now called to challenge the tyranny of oil”, Barack Obama, Detroit Economic Club, May 2007. Introduction Strangulation of the ‘umbilical cord’, our essential global oil supply conduit from the Arabian Gulf to major oil-consuming nations in SE Asia, could gradually choke out our life on our vulnerable planet. Are we already doomed? This paper undertakes a brief historical analysis as to how oil supply contingency was initially perceived, mentions the Oil Tanker War, and discusses the global oil supply chain. The paper focuses on the increasing militarism amongst those oil consumer nations dependent largely upon Middle East hydrocarbons supply. The “Arab Spring” is highlighted together with a cursory analysis of the civil war in Syria. The paper reviews the missile and anti-missile shield arms race, and the geopolitical, economic and military implications for the West before the end of the 21st Century. Chinese perspectives are stated, analysed and broadly critiqued. Cursory findings and conclusions are advanced including suggested reforms to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). Recent history has portrayed the never ending struggle for oil supply. In earlier times, the battle for oil supply amongst competing oil-consumer nations was often backed up by intrusive gunboat diplomacy and naval blockade. Today, it is under a much greater threat from missile deployments, and from high speed offshore patrol vessels (OPV) armed with limited-theatre anti-ship missiles (ASBM) and other sophisticated weapons.
