Imam Khomeini Art Festival was held in Tehran today.
This blogger is not joking. I would have thought that Imam Khomeini and art
festival did not belong in the same sentence, as in oxymoron. But the
government did hold the festival today, called “The Image of Imam Khomeini.” (Press TV, 2 June)
Some 36 posters and 45 photos, displaying personality and life of Imam
Khomeini, were exhibited at the event. I wonder what the founder of the Islamic
Republic would have thought of an art festival in his honor! I guess if you
live long enough, you could see stranger things!
The photo is a picture of Ayatollah Khomeini in Neauphle-le-Chateau, a Parisian
suburb, praying under the now-famous apple tree (or The Apple Tree as is called
in Iran)

and he was a strange thing that lived a little too long
But his legacy will last till eternity!
As a liar and fraud.
the nasty old man will certainly have a place in the history books and some small percentage of mention of him will be favorable.
but in the final balance he was little more than malign and reactionary.
