::Technically, it came from WP. I had written a more coherent version there, but it got hacked considerably by partisans, and I had hoped to get it cleaned up here. Articles such [[Iranian nuclear program]] and [[Iranian Security Forces]] are CZ-original. Perhaps this needs to be split into smaller articles and cleaned up. While I renamed the "general guerilla actions", the subject is important, and it's probably worth noting that the Baluchi groups operate in Pakistan and possibly Afghanistan. [[User:Howard C.

Iran 2006

It looks like this section has become muddled and doesn't appear to make sense. David Finn 08:59, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

Actually, it started out muddled - this text was lifted directly from Wikipedia, yes? David Finn 09:03, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

Fixed now. David Finn 09:08, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

There is nothing in this article to say it came from Wikipedia, but there should be - the quality is extremely poor. The section General guerrilla actions in Iran by ethnic minorities is so incomprehensible that I am tempted to delete it. David Finn 09:17, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
