Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – January 4, 1984

I was at home until noon. I read the reports. The arrogant propaganda of the world has targeted the Islamic Republic as a terrorist, adventurer, and warmonger. They are afraid of us and Islam, and they don't have the power to confront them directly, so they entered through these ways. They are worried about our victory in the war with Iraq. I went to my library a bit. Saeed [Lahoti] came as a leave from the army and went to their home with Fati. Chastity also went there as a walk.

Before noon Mr. [Abd al-Majid] Maadikhah came and presented and consulted on the work plan of the History Compilation Foundation. We had lunch with Mr. Ahmad and the Supreme Judicial Council as guests of Mr. Tausli. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Tahmasabi came from Isfahan and explained the problems in implementing the half-tank invention. Making excuses, but his work is important, we should work with him. He is a student with an innovative spirit.

In the evening, I attended the board meeting and stayed in my office at night. I read the reports. Today, Israel attacked the positions of Islamic forces in Baalbek with sixteen planes. Reports have said that the number of martyrs of Baalbek people is high; We were guests of the Prime Minister for dinner. Before the dinner, a meeting of the Board of Trustees of Islamic Azad University was held. We had approvals about the budget and single lesson meetings and selection. Then we had a meeting with the presence of Dr. [Goders] Iftikhar [Jahrami] and Dr. [Mahmood] Kashani and Dr. [Hamid] Bahrami and the heads of the three powers about the Hague Arbitration; We decided to ask Algeria to pay attention to the problems of the rulings before paying and not to pay the rulings automatically.
