Khomeini’s ‘Mein Kampf’
demonstrates fanaticism
by David Friedman
NEW YORK (JT A) — A
paperback English translation of
Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's
“Islamic Government," which has
just been published, clearly shows
the Iranian ruler to be anti-Semitic
as well as anti-Christian.
The book is based on a series of
lectures Khomeini gave in 1969 on
what an Islamic government
should be. It was translated by the
Central Intelligence Agency last
year and was declassified just two
weeks before the Ayatollah
returned to Teheran last Feb. I. It
is published by the Manor Press in
New York which calls it
“Ayatollah Khomeini's Mein
Kampf."
Khomeini's anti-Jewish atAtude
is displayed in the opening
paragraphs of the foreword to the
book. "Since its inception, the
Islamic government was afflicted
with the Jews when they started
their counter-activity by distorting
the reputation of Islam, by
assaulting it and by slandering," he
wrote. “This has continued to our
present day."
Khomeini then goes on to attack
his i>est villains, the “colonialists”
who, he said, “can be considered
more evil than the devil and his
troops.” He is apparently referring
to the West European countries
and the United States and their
activities' in the Middle East. ""
When the Ayatollah was
questioned about his anti-
Semitism while he was still in exile
in France last January, reporters
cited i his reference to Jewish
“counter-activity." He reportedly
denied to Western journalists that
he was anti-Semitic. While
stressing that all ties to Israel
would be cut, he said Jews wwuld
“enjoy all rights and full religious
freedom” in an Islamic republic.
But in his book he frequently
attacks both Jews and Christians.
“Christian, Jewish and Baha'i
missionary centers are spread in
Teheran to deceive people and to
lead them away from the teachings
and principles of religion," he
wrote at one point. “Isn’t it a duty
to destroy these centers?” He goes
on to call on the young people to
help save Islam. “Here they
(Christians and Jews) are killing
Islam in the name of religion and in
the name of the prophets."
At one point Khomeini attacks
the Shah for helping to restore the
A1 Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem
which was set ablaze by a deranged
nonrjc^vish Australian, “The Shah
opens a subscription in banks to
repair the A1 AqSa Mosque,"
Khomeini wrdce. “In this manner
he fills his pockets and coffers and
increases his assets. After the
Mosque is repaired, he will have
covered all traces of the Zionist
crimes." At another point, in
urging the rule of Islam, he
exhorts: “We must try to liberate
the lands of the Moslems in
Palestine and other places.”
Khomeini’s anti-Zionism is.also
linked with TS^ntPwestenusm." -
particularly ghti-fts. feelings.
Denouncing Iranians who seek to
separate religion from govern
ment, he declares: “We must first
advise such people to abandon
their erroneous way, must draw
their attention to the danger
surrounding Islam and the
Moslems and must open their eyes
wide to the Zionist danger and to
Anglo-American (colonialism)
that supplies the Israeli entity with
the mainstays of life." ,
The Ayatollah's fanaticism is
demonstrated throughout the
book. He writes: “If we attain
power, we should not be content
with improving, the economy and
ruling justly among the people but
must make these traitors taste the
worst torture for what they have
done."
