The Extermination Edict

The provisional government has decided to take decisive action in order to eliminate the degenerative elements of Iranian society. The Party has decreed that this Republic shall be the dawning of a new age for Iran and the beginning of our national resurgence. In order for our nation to resurge, we must first destroy those who would hold our nation back. We have seen in the Russian Revolution how Red and White terror have been used to great effect to eliminate potential enemies of the state, we must take inspiration from this. The most successful concept Iran has domestically is the Terror Committee that was created by Haydar Khan Amo-oghli. In order to continue this legacy, we will enlist the aid of Haydar Khan Amo-oghli and his terror committee veterans as well as the Gendarmerie militant Colonel Pessian. Together they will form the leadership committee for the Iranian internal security forces. This organization will be known as VEVAK the Ministry for Intelligence and Security. They will begin an immediate campaign to eliminate all Warlords, Bandit Lords, Feudal Lords and landlords that have abused the people, undermined Iran or in some way committed treasonous acts against the Iranian state and its people.

The following bodies will be created

• Local chapters of VEVAK will be formed for investigation and counterintelligence operations, they will also establish local informant networks by providing special privileges to those who choose to uphold their patriotic duty

• Re-education and Prison Camp command will oversee political prisons under VEVAK

• The Terror Organization will be part of VEVAK and will oversee special internal detachments who will carry out special missions to eliminate political opponents too dangerous to apprehend, it will have an authorized size of 5,000 and act as a partisan paramilitary force

• The National Revolutionary Army will act as the military force loyal to the revolution and party, it has an authorized strength of up to 60,000 and will hopefully integrate the Gendarmerie and Cossacks and remaining regular army divisions into its structure. The government will launch a recruitment drive to get closer to reach the 60,000 mark
