Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini (1902–1989)

Medium: A4 Paper, H,HB,B2

Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini (1902–1989) was the leader of the 1979 Iranian Revolution that overthrew the Shah of Iran and established the Islamic Republic. He became the country’s first Supreme Leader, the highest political and religious authority in Iran. Khomeini strongly opposed Western influence in Iran, especially policies that gave U.S. military personnel legal immunity under the Shah’s government.

After Khomeini’s death in 1989, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei succeeded him as Supreme Leader, a position he still holds today. Iran’s leadership has continued to express strong opposition to U.S. involvement in the Middle East, reflecting long-standing political tensions between the two countries.
