His seminal teaching often focused on the importance of religion to
practical social and political issues of the day, and he worked against
secularism in the 1940s. His first book, Kashf al-Asrar (Uncovering of
Secrets)[43][44] published in 1942, was a point-by-point refutation of
Asrar-e hazar salih (Secrets of a Thousand Years), a tract written by a
disciple of Iran's leading anti-clerical historian, Ahmad Kasravi.[45]
In addition, he went from Qom to Tehran to listen to Ayatullah Hasan
Mudarris, the leader of the opposition majority in Iran's parliament
during the 1920s. Khomeini became a marja in 1963, following the death
of Grand Ayatollah Seyyed Husayn Borujerdi.
On November 29, 1911, the Russian empire, which exerted great influence in Iran, sent troops into Iranian territory and delivered an ultimatum to the Iranian government which was supported by Britain. The ultimatum called for the dismissal of the American advisory group led by Morgan Shuster; a guarantee that no foreign adviser would be hired in future without the consent of Russia and Britain; and payment of an indemnity to the Russian troops in Iran. The ultimatum was discussed in a meeting of the Second National Assembly on December 1, 1911 and was met with strong opposition from Ayatullah Mudarris and other members of Parliament

Ingrid Rimland writes: In many parts of the world, this is "Holocaust
Remembrance Week" where the Jews wail about their real and imagined
suffering. I want to take this opportunity to remember a "small"
holocaust visited very recently by Israelis and Jews on others.
There will be other stories about holocausts in days and weeks to come, such as the crimes of Deir Yassin, the massacres of Egyptian prisoners of war etc. For now, look at this one - summarized by Ali Baghdadi :
On April 18, 1996 to be exact, 155 mm Israeli shells donated by Uncle Sam rained down on Lebanese men, women, and children taking refuge in a UN peace-keeping compound in Qana, southern Lebanon, to escape Israeli air, sea, and land bombardment of their towns and villages, and as a result, the bodies of 102 Arab civilians were shattered to pieces.
Leading up to the Qana massacre, 17 villages had been flattened, over a half million people had been rendered homeless, more than 200 had been murdered, and hundreds were wounded, in what was named as operation "Grapes of Wrath". Israeli Prime Minister Peres, who was granted the Nobel Prize for Peace, ordered the bombing blitz. The entire world, with the exception of the White House, condemned this barbaric attack conducted intentionally against defenseless civilians.
The UN compound in Qana has become a holocaust memorial to remind the world what Zionist Jews are capable of. The hangar where the lives of 102 victims were shattered to pieces has been left as it was. Bits of shrapnel, broken furniture, twisted metal, burned blankets, bloody toys are scattered on the floor. Nearby, the mass graves of these victims have been covered in black marble and decorated with portraits of the martyrs. Arabs and Muslims from every corner of the globe visit the site and promise the dead this ugly crime will never be forgotten. The time will come when the war criminals will be brought to justice and punished.
Butros Butros Ghali, (married to a Jewish woman), though he was an obedient servant of (the New World Order crowd), lost his job as a UN Secretary General. He was sacrificed at the altar of the Zionist masters who control the Oval Office. His only crime during his four years of service was the issuing of a mild UN report putting the blame for the Qana massacre on the Israeli government.
The UN commander, General Stanislaw Wozniak, rejected the Israeli lies and called the attack unacceptable. "Simply, you do not attack civilians. You do not attack UN positions," he emphasized.
The massacre was an act of deliberate terror aimed at punishing civilians for Tel-Aviv's failure to bring an end to Lebanese resistance and determination to liberate their lands from Israeli occupation.
Israeli military men who participated in the slaughter of Lebanese civilians said that the attack was justified; that they have no regrets; and that those who were killed were just "a bunch of Arabs" who lives are not important.
The Israeli military commander who led these men declared that this was a war and (they) must continue to fight like real fighters.
"We did our duty. They deserve to die because they are only Arabs." An Israeli soldier told "Kol Ha'Irr", an Israeli magazine, "I obeyed the orders. My conscience does not bother me at all. We should have fired more shells to kill more Arabs . . . One Arab more, one Arab less, you know.
Even the battery commander said that to us, "Any way, there are millions of Arabs."
Munira Taqi, who fled with her family to the UN compound in Qana from their home in Jebal Buttum a few miles away, lost her husband and an 8-year-old daughter. The mother, who was shielded by her husband, was wounded in the legs. While sitting beneath photos of her slain loved ones, she told newsmen who came to visit her:
"My child was on my lap and then she vanished. Shreds of her pajamas were all that was left."
Her surviving 7-year-old daughter walks with a limp and rarely speaks. Her left leg and arm are crippled.
In the town of Nabateya, a family of nine, including a mother and 7 children (one a 4-day-old baby), were wiped out by a so-called surgical Israeli strike. The father had left two days earlier to perform pilgrimage in the Holy City of Mecca. The father now has no wife, no children and no home to which to return. American technology, as shown over Lebanon, Iraq and Libya, does work!
Earlier an ambulance with two women and four children received a direct hit. . . American weapons over Muslim and Arab have proven to be effective!
The questions that puzzle every decent human being anywhere on earth are the following:
How can anyone find (this) acceptable for a people, who had themselves experienced many calamities because these refugees chose to remain close to their homes and villages?! How can anyone imagine that people, who had (allegedly) suffered centuries of oppression, are able to target innocent civilians taking shelter in a camp belonging to a UN peace-keeping unit, despite repeated UN personnel's appeals to stop the shelling?!
How can any man or woman comprehend how Jews, who build memorials to remind people of the "holocaust," have the power to drop "smart" bombs over towns and villages inhabited by real people?! How can any individual understand how Jews, who continue to complain (about) Nazi atrocities, have the strength and will to force the evacuation of 100 towns and villages and render the peaceful inhabitants homeless with no food, water, clothing or shelter?!
The Qana is only one in a series of massacres that Israel committed since its illegal creation by the West on Palestinian soil. Israel has shown the entire world that it is always capable, with plenty of American help, of acquiring and using the most sophisticated technology to kill and maim, to orphan and widow, and to destroy and burn people who have done them no harm!

Human Rights Watch, an independently funded organization that conducts investigations worldwide, issued a report on the Israeli "Operation Grapes of Wrath" in Lebanon. According to the May, 1996 report, the Israeli military's war crimes in Lebanon included:
Bombing whole villages without specific military objectives and without regard for civilian casualties;
Specifically targeting the civilians as well as civilian infrastructure, including power stations and water reservoirs;
Deliberately targeting ambulances and civilian vehicles.

The U.S. State Department has refused to classify the 1996 Qana massacre
as an act of Israeli state terrorism. Instead, "Palestinian attacks
against Israelis accounted for the second deadliest spate of
international terrorism in 1996, behind Sri Lankan terrorism, according
to the State Department's annual Patterns of Global Terrorism report.
More than 50 people died at the hands of Hamas terrorists, including
five Americans. The report's findings require the United States to
continue barring assistance to seven nations deemed state sponsors of
terror, including Syria, Iran, Libya and Sudan. "
