Iranian Secular Society (ISS) Manifesto Events ISS Latest Sponsors ... Home Manifesto Experience of the last twenty 25 years in Iran and the Middle East has proven once again the destructive nature of religion in the Public domain. Islamic laws have intruded in all aspects of life in Iran. All public functions are now designed, based and enforced by Islamic law. Iranian Society has been segregated based on sexual apartheid. Men and women are segregated in public space and women are treated as second-class citizen in all manners of life. Schools in Iran and the education system have been redefined and any subject not compatible with Islamic definitions has been eradicated. Women have been forced to veil. Marriage has to follow Islamic codes of conduct. Any voluntary sexual relationship outside marriage is punishable by flogging, imprisonment and by stoning to death. Over the last twenty three years in Iran, any criticism of religion or any policies handed down by the representatives of god on earth has been treated with the harshest response under the laws of blasphemy and critics silenced by imprisonment and death.

You are here allRefer Reference Iran History ... Iran Iran Government and Politics THE IRANIAN ISLAMIC REVOLUTION of 1979 resulted in the replacement of the monarchy by the Islamic Republic of Iran. The inspiration for the new government came from Ayatollah Sayyid Ruhollah Musavi Khomeini, who first began formulating his concept of an Islamic government in the early 1970s, while in exile in the Shia Islam learning and pilgrimage center of An Najaf in Iraq. Khomeini's principal objective was that government should be entrusted to Islamic clergy (see Glossary) who had been appropriately trained in Islamic theology and jurisprudence. He referred to this ideal government as a velayat-e faqih, or the guardianship of the religious jurist. Khomeini did not, however, elaborate concrete ideas about the institutions and functions of this ideal Islamic government. The translation of his ideas into a structure of interrelated governmental institutions was undertaken by the special Assembly of Experts, which drafted the Constitution of the Islamic Republic during the summer and fall of 1979. Subsequently, this Constitution was ratified by popular vote in December 1979. The political institutions established under the Constitution have been in the process of consolidation since 1980. These institutions have withstood serious challenges, such as the impeachment and removal from office of the first elected president and the assassination of the second one; the assassination of a prime minister, several members of the cabinet, and deputies of the parliament, or Majlis (see Glossary); an effort to overthrow the government by armed opposition; and a major foreign war. By 1987 the constitutional government's demonstrated ability to survive these numerous crises inspired confidence among the political elite.

Home A 'great venture': overthrowing the government of Iran by Mark Curtis From Lobster 30 This is a slightly abridged version of part of chapter four of Mark Curtis's book The Ambiguities of Power: British Foreign Policy since 1945 (Zed Press, 1995). In August 1953 a coup overthrew Iran's nationalist government of Mohammed Musaddiq and installed the Shah in power. The Shah subsequently used widespread repression and torture in a dictatorship that lasted until the 1979 Islamic revolution. The 1953 coup is conventionally regarded primarily as a CIA operation, yet the planning record reveals not only that Britain was the prime mover in the initial project to overthrow the government but also that British resources contributed significantly to the eventual success of the operation. Two first-hand accounts of the Anglo-American sponsorship of the coup - by the MI6 and CIA officers primarily responsible for it - are useful in reconstructing events. Many of the secret planning documents that reveal the British role have been removed from public access and some of them remain closed until the next century - for reasons of 'national security'. Nevertheless, a fairly clear picture still emerges. Churchill later told the CIA officer responsible for the operation that he 'would have loved nothing better than to have served under your command in this great venture'. In the 1950s the Anglo Iranian Oil Company (AIOC) - later renamed British Petroleum - which was managed from London and owned by the British government and British private citizens, controlled Iran's main source of income: oil. According to one British official, the AIOC 'has become in effect an

Speaking on condition of anonymity, the sources said Iran did not reply through those same channels, but U.S. officials viewed Khatami's moderate statements about respect for the American people, made last month and again in a CNN interview this week, as the answer to the U.S. overture. Washington severed ties with Tehran after radicals there took 52 Americans hostage in 1979, holding them for 444 days. The letter to Iran, sources said, contained no provisos and simply asked the Iranians if they were ready to conduct talks with the United States. The sources said such a letter would have been signed by U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. It was written, they said, after a long administration debate in which one camp argued that Washington should wait for Iran to make the first approach.

The Iran hostage crisis was a 444-day period during which the new government of Iran after the Iranian Revolution held hostage diplomats and citizens of the United States .

In , emerging democracy led to the election of reformist Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh ; under Operation Ajax , the CIA helped the Shah and conservative elements in Iran remove Mossadegh in what was widely seen as a coup d'etat . Eight U.S. presidents provided the shah with military and economic aid in exchange for a continuous oil supply and a strategic presence in the Middle East . Those opposed to the Shah, because he did not grant them freedoms and reforms he promised in the early 1960s, greatly resented this behaviour by the Americans.
