How the 1979 revolution under Imam's leadership freed Iran from great power tutelage

More than four decades of Resistance against global arrogance

The triple events of November the 4th began in 1964, when Imam Khomeini, leader of the Islamic revolution of Iran was exiled to Turkey for accusing the King, Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi of affiliation with the US.
