Himdad Mustafa

In his writings, Mr. Mustafa stresses that the international community must realize that the fall of the Islamic Republic of Iran can only come through the creation of a coalition of Iran's non-Persian ethnic groups, which include the Kurds. These ethnic groups are ready to coordinate and fight together to end the Islamist regime. They do not need the U.S. military on the ground; they want to and can wage their own independent fight for liberation. Within six months, they can establish an army hundreds of thousands strong.
