Historical Background Of

The Revolutionary Khabat* Organization Of Iranian Kurdistan

  After winning victory of the great revolution of the Iranian people against the tyrannical royalty regime, a proper situation was appeared in Iran generally and especially in Kurdistan which helped the minority ethnic groups to breath in free atmosphere. Also it caused forming many political organizations with different believes.

  In those conditions a group of Kurdish faithful, loyal and trustful religious men who felt that there were great vacancies in the political domain of Kurdistan, rolled their sleeves up to form and establish a political strong organization on the bases of essential Islamic and nationalistic programs.

  As a result on August 27th 1980, after lots of arguments, counseling and accurate discussions they decided to establish (Organization of the Nationalistic and Islamic Khabat of the Iranian Kurdistan).

  Khabat from the beginning of establishment faced the generosity of the Kurdish people. Besides the faithful and mu'men   (Peshmarga) guerillas began to support and protect their religion and motherland. Those peaceful conditions didn't take a long time. While the Khomaini forces( Iranian forces)  commenced military targets on Kurdistan; the unique option for Kurdish people was defense. So the Khabat's Peshmargas and members resisted those attacks and a lot of them were martyred or injured.

  Other wise the Revolutionary Khabat always has ensured that the press and communication were too important and useful items to realize the Khabat's aims; therefore after awhile Khabat issued (Tekoshan), a monthly paper which is the organ of the Central Council. Also they issued variety of booklets, newsletters and announcements.

Moreover in April 1985 the Khabat's Radio Station started broadcasting it's programs. So Khabat stepped into a new period of resistance. Furthermore in recent years they issued (Bestan) which was a literary quarterly. There were many problems, difficulties and strong barriers in front of Khabat's steps, but fortunately the brave members of Khabat were able to get rid of all problems.

  On the other hand, trustfulness in Allah, trustfulness in our people, tirelessness, bravery and deciding independently are the most highlight achievements of the Revolutionary Khabat which we always feel proud of them.

  Now, after so many years the revolutionary Khabat makes certain that is continuing resistance and struggle against the Iranian regime and protects the Kurds' Muslim people. Also Khabat promises to be available in the domain of struggle to offer more and more services to the Kurd's religion and country.

Furthermore, the Revolutionary Khabat defends the Kurds' political, social and cultural rights nationwide and worldwide. All in all, Khabat is carrying on their effecting through every adjustable way until will obtain their holiest goals.
