140 Orthodox Khomeinists

The IISH aims to document the different political movements within Iran. Ya-Lesarat al-Hossein (Hossein’s Avengers, the issue is dated 2 September 1999) is the weekly of Ansar-e Hezbollah (Helpers of the Party of God), one of the most orthodox-Khomeinist organizations in the country, which has been described as the paramilitary branch of the less structured Hezbollah movement. During the Revolution of 1979 and afterwards Hezbollah members formed unregulated units that intimidated Khomeini’s opponents and purged institutions.
