Anderson further adds: "probably no other ruler ln the world would welcome a spy chief as the American ambassador." The process of strengthening the Shah's dictatorial rule began more than 20 years ago. First in order was Ihe Implementation of supposedly massive land reform programs which came to be known as the "White Revolution." The White Revolution did not accomplish what tt set out to do. That is. It did not Improve the appalling living conditions or the Iranian peasants (over 70 per cent of the population), and worsened the living conditions of the Iranian workers, whosenum- ncrease. The main purpose of the "revolution from the top," was to break up the stronghold of certain power¬ ful feudal landlords who posed as a potential threat to the Shah's regime, and consequently pose a threat to the aspirations of the advocates of the Nixon Doctrine. In conjunction with the White Revolution, the U.S. Government launched a major military- assistance program which was to arm the Shah's corrupt and dictatorial regime to Its teeth. Included In this program was creation of the Shah's secret ser¬ vice apparatus, better known as'- SAVAK. Throughout the years, SAVAK has gained the well deserved reputation of being one of the most sophisticated (meaning In case the most barbarous) world, I likened to The f Shah's by the U.N. Human Rights Com¬ mission, and Amnesty Interna¬ tional for torture of political prisoners whose number ts re¬ ported to be over 25 thousand, . Philip Jacobson, author of a recent article published ln the January 19, 1975 Issue ofLondon Sunday Times, based on a one- torture prae reports: 'the secret police have Invented an Iron frame covered with a wire mesh which Is heated up to toast Its victims." Following the 1971 departure of British forces from Persian Gulf, the policy to arm the Shah's military with the most advanced weaponry was accelerated. Brit¬ ish withdrawal gave the advocates of the Nixon Doctrine more rea¬ son to Justify militarily strong regional power. In the past two years alone, some $7.6 billion worth of military equipment has been sold to the Shah. This week's Time magazine, reports: Iran, by far the world's major arms Importer, ts buying six fast spru- ance-class destroyers from U.S.'a where ls tlut bdom ln arms sales more apparent than In the Persian Gulf. There ls very little on the outer reaches of military tech¬ nology that Is not coming Into this area..* Times article on arms further reports:'"what Is prob¬ ably the world's biggest hell- _copter-tralnlng facility has been constructed at Isfahan In Central Iran, and Is staffed by U.S. ex¬ perts who. with their families, form a colony of 5,000." According to recent U.S. gov¬ ernment reports, the U.S. mili¬ ary experts, hired through private companies such as Ray¬ theon and Vlnnel Corporations, have been training the Shah's military for the past several years (according to N.Y. Times, Thursday, February 20, 1975, Raytheon Corporation hasa$32.5 million contract to train Iranian personnel ln the use and main¬ tenance of HAWK anti-aircraft missiles). For the past two years, the Shah's U.S.-mllltary-tralned and equipped forces have been di¬ rectly Involved ln aiding the gov¬ ernment of Oman In Its effort to suppress a national uprising In Ihe province of Dhofar. A recent Associated Press report con¬ firmed that more than 2,000, Iranian troops are currently* fighting on Ihe side of the Omant government in Dhofar,. The same AP article reports:' "military experts rrom the U.S. are teach¬ ing Oman's Air Force how to fire wire guided antl tank mis¬ siles — purchased from U.S. -" to be used agalnstOmanl citizens In the province of Dhofar.

In his recent trip to Egypt and Jordon, the Shah had the audacity to-support Arab demands ln the present Arab-Israeli conflict,. and/even had some kind words fdVthe PLO, while at the same time he was assuring Israel that Iran will provide 50 per cent of Israel's oil loss, if Israel agrees to return the Egyptian oil fields in the Slnal to Egypt. The Shah's regime Is already providing the other 50 per cent oil require¬ ments of Israel. As far back as LOOKING FOR A CHANGE? NOW--.-the mellow and sophisticated sounds of E2S5IASP two years ago, tha Shah of Iran was aiding the Ethiopian regime to suppress the national uprising ln Eritrea. A brief examination ofthe cur¬ rent events that are taking place In the Persian Gulf region strongly supports the contention that nothing has changed since tha days American civilian military advisors were sent toSouth Viet¬ nam and Laos. The lessons that everyone agreed should be learned from the Vietnam experi¬ ence never materialized. The same political mentality that brought horrors ln Vietnam are. hard at work Indeed. As long as the American people choose, to be bullied by those In power, they too have chosen to Ignore the lessons of Vietnam. The current economic crisis In the U.S. Is partly due to the policies that were pursued In Indochina.Com¬ mon sense tells us that the way out of this crisis should not be sought for tn another Vietnam In the Persian Gulf region. Sen. Ed¬ ward Kennedy has recently pro¬ posed a moratorium on further shipment ot arms to tha Persian Gulf states for a period of six months. Aa a first step, we urge you to write to your senators and con¬ gressmen to vote In favor of Kennedy's proposal. In recant years, tha struggle of Iranian people against repressive regime of the Shah and its number one supporter, U.S. Imperialism,has intensified and continues to.
