The '''Basij''' (Basij Resistance Force) is a volunteer paramilitary organization - gang under [[Iran]]'s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps ([[IRGC]]), formed in 1979 to enforce religious, political, and internal "security." Operating across Iran, they act as so-called "moral" police, repress political dissent, and support the Islamic fascist regime, often engaging in "crowd control" street thuggery during protests.


Key details regarding the Basij include:
Purpose: Founded by [[Ayatollah Khomeini]] to defend the Islamic Republic against perceived domestic and international threats.


Role: Key functions include "morals policing," suppressing demonstrations, controlling public gatherings, and acting as an ideological propaganda machine.


Organization: Formally integrated into the IRGC in 1981, they operate as an auxiliary force for internal security and are present in cities and towns nationwide.
Membership: Comprises volunteers (men, women, and historically children) who may receive perks like university spots, jobs, or social status.

Actions: Often involved in violent crackdowns on protesters, including chasing, clubbing, and shooting demonstrators.
The Basij has become a key tool for Supreme Leader Ayatollah [[Ali Khamenei]] to maintain oppressive regime stability through surveillance and repression.
