Mission to Tehran
The translation division of the Islamic Revolution Documents Center has provided a new Persian translation of the Mission to Tehran by General Robert Huyser. The book will be published within a few months.
IBNA: In an interview with IBNA, Nematollah Ameli, the book's translator, said Mohammad Hussein Adeli at Rasa Cultural Services Institute published the first Persian version of the book in Etela'at Daily as a footnote story back in 1986.
As he said, the former rendition was defective for many reasons like many instances of misinterpretations, omitted parts and poor proofreading which were compelled the provision of a better translation.
The book is arranged in three chapters: Shah's final days, Awaiting Khomeini and Khomeini's Return. In his book, Huyser unfolds US policies regarding Iran's developments in the final months of the Shah regime.
During the Islamic Revolution, Huyser was the assistant commander of the joint American forces in Europe that was dispatched to Tehran in 1979 as part of his effort to forestall the demise of the shah's regime. Mission to Tehran is Huyser's dramatic recounting of how that undertaking was doomed to failure, not least by an administration in Washington divided on policy and preoccupied with other foreign policy issues.

Another event that happened in Khuzestan Province and I followed up was the Arab People Committee. One day, we were informed that the Arabs had set up a committee special for themselves.
