... Imam Khomeini (RA) is a great man. He is nothing like the tyrant Stalin. He never punished people because they had something to say, unless it was against Islam. Executions were against killers and rapists etc... America only hated the blessed Imam because he wanted Iranian natural oil and gas to belong to the country and the people, not to America, Russia and Britain who tried to abuse this oil supply. He gave women many rights. They had the same rights as men did. You know nothing. See this 10-part documentary on the life of the blessed Imam Khomeini (RA) to see the truth about him: al-masumeen.com/series/biography/documentary-on-the-life-of-imam-ruhollah-khomeini.html You are a hateful person who has no knowledge and are ignorant of the truth.
