Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Original illustrated wraps titled in Farsi and English 15x22cm. (1), 57pp official US classified documents in facsimile; (5), 123pp translations and commentaries in Farsi. Wraps good with a patch of scuffing to the English panel, interiors very good. Undated c1986 (based on Vols 8 and 54). Numbered Volume 51 in the overall series of 77, this is also Section 3-1 in a sub-series of 7 volumes on the USSR. This one contains a Confidential paper with its original covering letters in its entirety: "Soviet Intelligence Operations against Americans and US Installations Abroad - An Analysis of Soviet Doctrine and Practice", July 1968. Chapters include Introduction (the Soviet Operational Program, Soviet Services, KGB and GRU overseas, KGB and East European Bloc Services abroad); US targets abroad (goals; categories: code and communications personnel, military personnel, Marine guards, secretaries and clerks, diplomatic staff, non-official Americans, businessmen and students); Soviet assets abroad (Soviet nationals, Communist Bloc IOs, Other foreign nationals); Soviet electronic penetration of US installations in the West; Review of operational techniques and gambits (Soviet views of targets, material incentives, direct social approach, compromise, sexual and homosexual approaches, trips to the Communist Bloc, false flag, gambits for contact); with an Index of Names. Photos show individuals, installations, and equipment, including a page from a Top Secret KGB training manual concerning the recruitment of Americans. These documents were translated and arranged by the Muslim Students Following the Line of the Imam, a pro-Khomeini group drawn from Tehran's major universities. At Khomeini's urging, they occupied the US Embassy on 4 November 1979 taking over 50 hostages to be exchanged for the Shah, then in the US. The US Press Attache recalled one of the students telling him "I'm a part of the Students Following the Line of the Imam. You’re in the nest of spies. You are part of US imperialism, and you're the corruptors of the Earth. You are our prisoner". The Students acquired a huge stack of classified material that Embassy staff were in the process of shredding, and reconstituted them with the help of local carpet weavers. To embarrass the US and its allies, many were published c1979-95 in a 77 volume series called "Documents from the US Espionage Den", and sold in a shop in front of the former Embassy. At least half covered Iran in sub-series relating to US interventions, the Shah, military support, political parties, key figures, useful contacts, the Kurds etc. The rest covered other countries, groupings or topics (Afghanistan, Egypt, Kuwait, Pakistan, Turkey, Palestine, Israel / Qods, Arabian Peninsula, OPEC, USSR, Communist countries, Non-Aligned countries, US agents in Paris, US policy, etc). The Federation of American Scientists assessed their significance as follows: "Along with voluminous embassy cable traffic, CIA intelligence assessments and estimates that remain classified in the US, some of the documents in the Iranian collection are of a sort that would never be released by the CIA, since they contain detailed information on sensitive sources. Indeed, at least one execution of a CIA source is directly attributable to the capture of these records. The collection offers a unique window on diplomatic and intelligence activity that is completely unobscured by classification constraints. The Iranian records cannot replace the CIA records of the 1953 coup in Iran that have been destroyed, since they originate overwhelmingly from the late 1970s. But they could add considerably to the history of that later period" (FAS Secrecy & Government Bulletin, n70, Sept 1997). Rare in commerce.
