Aside from Frence, which countries helped the Ayatollah?
I don't know about yous... but, we inside the military camps used to tune in to BBC Persian for the news, messages from Khomeini, and upcoming demonstrations... things like that...
That is precisely what I am implying. The "revolution" was planned and paid for by those who wanted the Shah out.
@GR
I have often wondered about why a secular country, such as France, would accept to let in and shield someone like Khomeini.
From what I heard, it was upon the Shah's own request that France took Khomeini in. Namely, the Shah believed that getting Khomeini as far away as possible from Iran was somehow going to lessen Khomeini's influence on the Iranian population.
Apparently, the Shah was wrong. And so was France.
