The Mujahideen, specifically the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), opposed the government of Ayatollah Khomeini by advocating for secularism, democracy, and human rights, in stark contrast to Khomeini's theocratic regime. They initially supported the 1979 Iranian Revolution but soon became disillusioned due to Khomeini's authoritarian policies and repression of dissent. The MEK engaged in armed resistance, advocating for the overthrow of Khomeini's government, which they viewed as oppressive and dictatorial. Their opposition culminated in violent clashes and a sustained campaign against the regime throughout the 1980s and beyond.
