Rise and Fall of the Mojahedin Khalq, 1987-1997

The Mojahedin Khalq Organisation is an Iranian political party that helped Khomeini's religious sect in Iran bring about the Islamic revolution of 1979, after being at the forefront of opposition to the rule of the Shah. However, as the revolution got underway the Mojahedin were sidelined by the religious clerics and were expelled from the political arena.
