refWrite...page2: How Ruhollah Khomeini went from returning ...

[refWrite...page2] In the decade between Khomeini's return to Tehran and the imposition of his fatwa on Salman Rushdie's novel The Satanic Verses -- and it was almost 10 years to the day that the one followed the other -- Islamism mutated from being a minor irritant to nationalist regimes in Muslim countries into a major threat to the West. The Rushdie affair, and the fatwa in particular, seemed like a warning that the seeds of the Iranian revolution were being successfully scattered across the globe, not least into the heart of the secular West.

Quote of the day: Khomeini spits on those who say Islam is ...

[Jihad Watch] For instance, amidst all the battling over ideas and policy along the years, sometimes at the highest levels -- which is continuing -- I have become convinced that I have done absolutely nothing, inasmuch as I am still alive while so many good men, women and children have died under the most horrific circumstances of Islamic oppression. But I’d like to do what I can: write a little commentary on bits and pieces of the Qur'an which plumb the depths of why Islam is essentially violent, and not a religion at all.

Harry's Place » Stephen Sizer and the Khomeini Family

Lots of stories are reported about Khomeini’s ruthlessness in dealing with his opponents and those who worked for the Shah, but his supporters refute these claims.

Political Pistachio: Khomeini Class Destroyers

[Political Pistachio] The impact of the Khomeini Class (the Kidd Class Destroyers are also sometimes called the Ayatollah Class) remains with the Navy. Whenever I find myself in a discussion with a Navy vet, or active duty Navy servicemember, even those that began to serve after the Kidd Class was long gone, and I tell the person I served aboard a Khomeini Class ship, they always smile in recognition.

Khomeini Had Failed in His Specific Goal of Eliminating Rushdie

[Haber Siyaset | Türkiye'de ve dünyada geliÅŸen güncel haberler] It attacked the Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles for portraying Ayatollah Khomeini as a Hitler-like enemy of Jews, and it went after the Reader’s Digest for documenting the repression of Christians in several Muslim countries. When James Jatras, a Senate aide, published in his private capacity a stinging critique of Islam (”a self-evident outgrowth not of the Old and New Covenants but of the darkness of heathen Araby”), CAIR took out a full-page newspaper ad in the Washington Times calling for his dismissal.
