We were told it was from Mashhad. <br />Do you know what division that was, and if it actually played a role in stopping the advance of the Iraqi tanks?<br /><br />Ps. The situation in those days was so desperate that the government was issuing old weapons, like Brno guns, to old veterans in cities and villages in khuzestan, so that they can be the last line of defense without needing any training.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665812073292288344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-51733639393838437492012-06-07T20:59:10.139-04:002012-06-07T20:59:10.139-04:00Anon 4:29 PM

Wow, what a logic!! you have a way to twist words. Just standing for the principle of Freedom does not mean and equate I am for any government, including any dictatorship. Your argument is to make sure anyone with a different opinion must support theocracy. That is dishonest. You can not even for a minute accept that One can be against Theocracy but for the principles of freedom of speech, which means all sides have the right to express their opinions.<br />You can not ask for freedom but at the same time act as to deny it from your opposition; That is hypocrisy!<br /><br />This is a problem in most cultures including Iranian; that is accepting the right of any opposition to express, speak, assemble, and take part in any form of political forum. Once any nation or majority can accept these principles then they can live free and form free governments elected by the people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-1069724207744933132012-06-07T12:39:24.002-04:002012-06-07T12:39:24.002-04:00Anon 10:52 AM
