Abstract
A clandestine group, symbolically called after the 9th century Iranian historical figure, "Babak Khorramdin Organisation", appeared after the Islamic Revolution with the aim of overthrowing the Islamic government and restoring the Iranian nationalism at the expense of what they consider to be an overcultivation of the Muslim and Shi'a identity. The article describes the organisation's structure, character and methods, its political and national agenda, its vision and its struggle against the Islamic regime.
