    In Shiraz: "Monafeq, could you assassinate 35 million Hezbollahis?"
    Members of the Mojahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) are described (mostly in official circles) as Monafeqs (hypocrites). This picture was taken around 1982, when the MKO had launched a widespread campaign to assassinate senior officials as well as civilian supporters of the Islamic Republic. At the time, Iran's population was about 35 million.
