After a month of fighting, the National Liberation Army of Iran foiled the Khomeini regime's plot and repelled all enemy forces, while because of the geography of the battlefield, only 20% of the NLA forces had been deployed for the fighting.
In Operation Pearl, the National Liberation Army of Iran again demonstrated its military might and proficiency, combat capability and fire power. The operation dealt a significant military setback to the regime's devastated war machine.
Yet beyond the military aspect, the defeat was both fundamental and strategic
because of its political repercussions in the balance of power between the
Iranian Resistance and the Khomeini regime on the regional and international
levels.
The Khomeini regime supposedly had an ideal regional and international situation in which to destroy the National Liberation Army. The political implications of its decisive defeat enhanced the status of the Mojahedin and the NLA, adding to the international credibility of the Iranian Resistance as the powerful alternative to the faltering Khomeini regime.
The NLAs victory in the major Pearl operation has made it plain that any investment in the future of the Khomeini regime will bring only loss. Until a democratic regime governs in Iran, peace, stability and good neighborly relations in the region are inconceivable.
