Komalah (Komełe), also known as KŞZK (Komełey Şorrişgêrrî Zehmetkêşanî Kurdistan) or its full name Komełey Şorrişgêrrî Zehmetkêşanî Kurdistanî Êran (Society of Revolutionary Toilers of Iranian Kurdistan) is a left-wing Kurdish nationalist political party based in Iranian and Iraqi Kurdistan. Komala has their own guerrilla force who's called "Peshmerga" and they've been active as most in the 80s and 90s until they were forced to lay down arms after suffering from heavy resistance from Iraqi Kurdish forces. Komala has been in the terrorist list of Iran since the formation of the new regime.
Komala was founded in Tehran, Iran by a group of Kurdish university students led by Foad Mostafa Soltani (Kak Foad). The Kurdish university students started to arrange secret meetings and discussed marxist and socialist ideas who led to the formation of a clandestine Kurdish organization called Komala
During the end of the second world war, Russia had a strong influence within the kurdistan region of Iran. Because there was a lot of mismanagement by the IRANIAN AS WELL AS THE russian regime, the kurds were allowed to start their own republic at the end of WW2, which was called the Republic of Mahabad. Unfortunately, the Republic of Mahabad was very short lived and lasted for 11 months, because the Russians no longer expressed their support and the Shah of Iran invaded the area. Foad Mostafa Soltani also known as (Kak Foad) graduated from High School in Sanandaj and went on to study Electrical Engineering in Irans capital city, Tehran. Kak Foad went to Aryamehr University and met many Kurdish students who later inspired him with their leftist ideas and thinking. During these years, Kak Foad spent most of the times studying different Marxist books and learning himself about the leftist ideas. Foad started to organize top secret meetings with the Kurdish students and started to discuss communism who later led to the formation of the leftist, Kurdish nationalist organisation called Komala, now a socialist political party.
