“Since Khomeini's death, the popular appeal of an Islamic state - and of fundamentalism - has surely dimmed. Thinkers still debate and warriors kill, but no country seems prepared to emulate Iran. Perhaps revolutions happen only under majestic leaders, and no one like Khomeini has since appeared.” StillsCountryStatesSeemsHappensLeaderRevolutionPreparedDebateWarriorAppealsIslamicIranThinkerFundamentalismEmulateMajesticIslamic StateKhomeini Author:Ruhollah Khomeini
“Having lost faith in all else, zealots have nothing left but a holy cause to please a warrior God. They win if we become holy warriors, too; if we kill the innocent as they do; strike first at those who had not struck us; allow our leaders to use the fear of terrorism to make us afraid of the truth; cease to think and reason together, allowing others to tell what's in God's mind.” IfsThinkingMindFirstsReasonUseTogetherWinningLostLeftCausesLeaderHolyPleaseTerrorismStrikesCeaseInnocentWarriorAllowingZealotLost Faith Author:Bill Moyers
“Fear is not an emotion, it is a disease. It spreads from the leader to his followers and vice-versa. Nothing has killed more men in war than fear. What should a warrior fear? Death?

Thinking will clear such doubts.” ThinkingMenShouldImportantWarEmotionLeaderClearDoubtBloodAchieveVictoryDiseaseVicesSpreadWoundsWarriorFollowersFear Of DeathVice VersaPintsNectar Author:Anand Neelakantan
