Defending Iran
Since the 1979 revolution, the ruling establishment of Iran has developed and articulated a defense strategy reflective of the country’s Iran–Iraq War experience and its international isolation. Its asymmetrical warfare doctrine, use of irregular forces in military campaigns, deployment of ballistic missiles, use of fast naval vessels to harass and confuse adversaries, and finally its development of a sophisticated cyber warfare capability are all features of this unique defense strategy. Based on a wide range of primary sources in Persian, Arabic, and English, Gawdat Bahgat and Anoushiravan Ehteshami offer a detailed and authoritative analysis of Iran’s defense strategy. Additionally, this book provides a comparative analysis of the Islamic Republic’s capabilities in relation to Israel and Saudi Arabia, its main regional adversaries. Framing Tehran’s threat perceptions following the revolution within a wider historical context, this book will facilitate further analytical reflections on the country’s changing role in the region, and its relations further afield, with the United States, Europe, Russia, and China. gawdat bahgat is Professor of National Security in the Near East South Asia Center for Strategic Studies at the National Defense University. He is the author of twelve books, including Alternative Energy in the Middle East (2013), Energy Security (2011), and Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons in the Middle East (2007)
Ahmad Shahab, born in 1919 is one of the first and active members of the devotees of Islam and is considered among the close friends of Sayyed Mojtaba Mir Lohi [Navab Safavi]. He has witnessed many of this group’s political and military actions and he has actively participated in a few cases such as the murder of Ahmad Kasravi (1945) and assassination of Hassan Ali Mansour (1964). He was jailed several times and spent many years of his life in prison. There are no inscribed memories from the members of the devotees of Islam up to now except in rare cases; what’s more most of them are no more. In 1994 the oral history unit of Institute for the study of Iran contemporary history was able to record his memories in several sessions after obtaining his agreement, what follows is part of the memories of the above mentioned.
□ It seems that Navab Safavi had met Kasravi and talked with him once and had tried to assassinate him one before he was murdered. Explain this.
In a meeting held at Kasravi’s house where a group of people including several army officers were present, Navab participated too. There he mentioned his beliefs to Kasravi but they threw him out. When Navab realized talking with Kasravi is of no use, he attacked Kasravi a while later in Ab Sardar with a knife and injured his shoulder. Kasravi was hospitalized and brigadier Saffari, then police chief, arrested Navab and sent him to prison.1 Once more Navab told Kasravi: “do something to shorten your life or you will trouble us.” In this way Navab did not give up and met with Ibrahim Daryani to obtain a pistol and said I have 3000 Rls bu
