''Imam Khomeini leaded the Islamic revolution of Iran with his fate.''

On the other hand, it confirmed that along with the cultural role of politicians, we shouldn't forget that not seeing the effects of religious features, believes and traditions of nations on structuring a culture would cause disasters.
