Presentation of the movement

At the 1st May 2002 demonstration in Munich there were Iranians of the Organisation of the Iranian People's Fedayee Guerrillas. This seems to be an Iranian left-wing militant organisation, mainly in exile. Recently, this has been added by the European Union to the list of terrorist organizations.

Description of the flag

The movement use a logo showing a globe with the outlined map of Iran, charged with hammer and sickle and an arm with a Kalashnikov; at the top a star, at the bottom an inscription (the name of the organisation, probably).

This inscription, however, comes in two variants in the flags seen in Munich:

The inscription of both flags reads the same (it is only written in a different style). It reads Sāzmān-e CHarik-hā-ye Fedā`i-e KHalq-e Irān; double capital letters denote one
original letter in Arabo-Persian alphabet)
Translation: Organization of the Fedā`i-Militias of the Iranian People.
