Why do you think anyone who doesn't think like others must have lost it? Is that all your argument?
Dear Daniel
I posed a question, not an argument. Do you have an answer?
Unfortunately, I don't read Persian, so can only read the summary. It would be great if an English translation of the whole article were made available. Can you help?
From my experience, anti-colonialism is not necessarily the first thing that comes to many people's minds when they think of Khomeini. As for creating "the only true post-colonial state" in the world, what of Algeria, Brazil, Cuba, China, India, Indonesia, Libya, Malaysia, Pakistan, South Africa, Syria, Vietnam, Venezuela, Zimbabwe or, indeed, North Korea?
