[Blog site of iVarta.com] Making a Sense out of Crisis in Arab countries: While facing unrest in Iran in 1978-79, he was asked to step down by the President Jimmy Carter, as today Hillary Clinton is saying to Gaddafi. When the popular leader of Iran Bani Sadr tried to create a democratic system in Iran, France has sent in a special Air-France aircraft Ayatollah Khomeni, who was kept in the suburb of Paris in great luxury.

[Grendel Report] Egypt gets its Khomeini: Up until now, the Egyptian revolution generally, and the Brotherhood in particular, has lacked a charismatic thinker, someone who could really mobilize the masses. Qaradawi is that man.

[Dr. Michael D. Evans] Another Noble Peace Prize for Obama: The Empress Farah Pahlavi, widow of the Shah, told me that this all happened because of Carter’s obsession with human rights and his grave resentment of a Muslim leader who was greatly loved by the Republican Party. I was also told by Iranian cabinet ministers that America’s Foreign Assistance Act, Section 502B made it possible for the President of the United States to suspend security assistance to any country or government which engages in a consistent pattern of gross violation of internationally recognized human rights.

[Israpundit] Israpundit » Blog Archive » Qaradawi is Egypt's Khomeini: That word is “hypocrites.” In the Islamist lexicon, hypocrites means Muslims who do not practice “true” Islam according to the radicals. To take Egypt out of the hands of “hypocrites” is to put it onto the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood - or at least similarly minded people - which, contrary to the best and the brightest policy makers, intelligence analysts, experts and journalists, is not a moderate organization.

[Rabid Republican Blog] Bin Laden Is Remaking The Map: In 1979, tape cassettes were the means the fundamentalists used to spread 'the message' of the Ayatollah Khomeini in Iran, resulting in the Shah being overthrown. Today the video-enabled cell phone, .

[The TexasFred Blog] History is Repeating Itself in Islamic Nations: The Shah left Iran for exile in mid-January 1979, and in the resulting power vacuum two weeks later Ayatollah Khomeini returned to Tehran to a greeting by several million Iranians. The royal regime collapsed shortly after on February 11 when guerrillas and rebel troops overwhelmed troops loyal to the Shah in armed street fighting.

[StephenKMackSD's Blog] The archaeology of Iran's regime | openDemocracy: An interesting comparison arises here between the unintended consequences of Jimmy Carter's election for the overthrow of the Shah, Barack Obama's on the Iranian revolt of June 2009.

[Canary In The Coal Mine] Obama's Muslim Brotherhood Romance: It was evident, after all, that Khomeini was not planning to set up Jeffersonian institutions based on respect for individual liberty and the right to dissent. Khomeini's violent and intolerant attitude toward non-Muslim minorities (especially Baha'is and Jews), secularists, women and all dissenters from the Islamist line was no secret.

[Joel C. Rosenberg's Blog] INSIDE THE EGYPTIAN REVOLUTION: VIOLENCE IS RISING BECAUSE THE ...: These followers of Jesus Christ in the Islamic world tend to be apolitical and are focused on evangelism, discipleship, church planting, pastor training and spiritual renewal. By using dual strategies of an air war (satellite TV, radio and the Internet) and a ground war (especially the house church movement), their numbers have swelled into the millions since 1979, despite widespread (and recently intensifying) persecution. I profile a number of their leaders in the book, though few of them are known by name in the West.

[World Blog] World Blog - Minder 'thanks God!' spotlight is off Libya: You lament the return of Khomeini while ignoring completely the CIA- and MI5-orchestrated ouster of the democratically elected Iranian secularist Mossadegh in 1953, which enabled the exiled Shah to return to power in Iran, whereupon he wreaked havoc and torture on his own people until he was kicked out again by Khomeini's kids in the 1979 Revolution. The Sandinistas didn't arise directly from intervention by the United States but rather as a reaction to our decades-long support of another dictatorial family named Somoza, and then we tried to overturn Sandinista rule by dimbulb Reagan's/Oliver North's funding of the Contras with money earned by selling guns to Iran in its fight with Iraq (we wound up funding both sides of that 9-10 year war), and Bautista was on our government's dole, using Cuba as a personal playground for American tourists in Havana before being overthrown by Castro's rebels.

[OBRL-News Blog] Letter on Modern Jew Hatred, the Holocaust, and the Egyptian Revolt: narrative is challenged, the committed Muslim who is already saturated with vile propaganda from the homeland or as what they get in the West, and who is also resistant or contemptuous against the greater sexual freedom and freedoms for women in secular Western democratic societies, they are going to become quite upset… and specifically for young males in Western classrooms, they are frequently encouraged to be confrontational on a whole variety of Islamic issues by the adults.

The Iranian diplomats were captured by Christian militia forces, the Samir Jaja faction, in South Lebanon in 1982.
