How Imam Khomeini-led Islamic Revolution influenced me as Muslim convert

By Ali Salaam

Born in the United States into a non-Muslim family, the first time I heard of Islam in anything other than a passive mention was in the days following the events of September 11, 2001.

The image I had of Islam in my head previously was that of evil and bloodshed.

I was oblivious to the fact that the Western media is controlled by Zionists and big corporations, and colludes with intelligence agencies, such as the infamous CIA Operation Mockingbird.

I had no idea that everything I thought was true about my reality was one big lie, and that I was being intentionally removed from my purpose in life, which is to recognize the ultimate reality.

Instead, I was taught that drug-addicted Satanists like George W. Bush were heroes for blowing up West Asia following the attacks of 9/11.

Bush and most other American presidents were total puppets. Bush's cabinet was primarily led by Zionist Jews and pseudo-Christian neoconservatives. He was easy to manipulate due to the blackmail that exists on them due to their participation in secretive fraternities like the Skull and Bones Society.

The media did not tell me the truth that this so-called “statesman,” Bush Jr., was involved in orchestrating the false flag attack of 9/11, as was later revealed.

This “hero” was actually the terrorist! Although he was not at the top of the pyramid. Powerful Zionist Jews like Larry Silverstein, Dov Zakheim (part of the Bush cabinet), Robert Lauder, and more have connections to the 9/11 attacks.

Additionally, several Mossad agents were arrested on 9/11 in connection with the attacks and the mainstream media reported on these stories, before burying them permanently and portraying the so-called “Axis of Evil” as the perpetrators.

I had no idea that the real terrorists are the very “statesmen” who, through their corrupted Rockefeller education system, kept me and millions of other American children blind from the reality of their Creator, leading us into a life of sin, arrogance, corruption, and hedonism, which does not fulfill the human heart, and instead makes us zombies to blindly support their terrorist empire and not feel any remorse for the trail of blood it has left behind in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Palestine.

As Malcolm X famously said, the media has the power to make us love the oppressor and hate the oppressed. That was my reality. I thought these evil people were good, and the people they massacred, pillaged and spread corruption throughout the lands they conquered were the evil ones.

I was also unaware that the godless lifestyle of hedonism was also oppressing me by keeping me from my life's true potential – of a dignified, upright, mature, and selfless life in service of my Creator.

The lives of these mass murdering criminals were deemed so precious. Many movies and TV shows portray protecting the American president as the most important thing, psychologically conditioning us to see the elites as a special class of people worthy of more rights than us.

Islamic Revolution ended Pahlavi rule and dismantled Western hegemony

Understanding the Islamic Republic and the Islamic Revolution means comprehending the rejection of Western language and the need to articulate independent political vision devoid of Western grammar.

While the stability of the state and the security of its officials is a globally recognized standard, the US itself does not recognize this standard and has constantly toppled the duly elected leaders of countries across the world in bloody coups.

When I finally woke up to realize that my government was the real terrorist entity, my heart subconsciously yearned to find a true statesman who deserves his position of leadership, yet doesn't abuse it.

Is it even possible, I asked myself. For Americans who aren't brainwashed by their deep state and the Zionist media, it may be hard to imagine.

When many American leaders are on the black book of Jeffrey Epstein, a Mossad agent notorious for a child sex trafficking ring that he used to blackmail powerful figures into blind and total support for the Zionist cause, it is hard to even fathom that a real statesman could even exist when American leaders are all a bunch of liars, mass murderers, and some of them even vile pedophiles.

When I converted to Islam, it was even more important that aside from being politically righteous and just, this statesman must also adhere to divine standards and meet all the standards in the spiritual dimensions as well.

This statesman existed and returned to His Lord before I was born. I didn't even know he was the breath of fresh air I was looking for. For most of my life, I was told that Imam Khomeini (ra) is a villain who seeks to kill Americans aimlessly.

Once I realized that the real terrorists were the American and Zionist regime officials, military, and intelligence agencies, I began to be able to view and assess independent nations with clearer eyes.

I never became an anarchist or a reductionist. Anarchism has always been a tool in the hands of the CIA, which is why they supported the Trotskyite branch of leftism in the US in order to counter “authoritarian” socialist nations, and why anarchists were fighting for the US-backed Kurdish rebels against the democratically-elected Syrian government.

Human beings will always gravitate towards leadership and governance, even if it is under the auspices of “private contracts” as some of these anarcho-capitalist libertarians advocate for.

Government is but a tool, and it can be used for both good and evil. When people only see corruption in government, it is easy to become jaded and get fooled by controlled opposition ideologies like anarchism.

With a fair assessment, it is not hard to admire and respect the Islamic Revolution and Imam Khomeini.

This is a nation that has principles based on divine morals, a nation that does not oppress people, and in fact stands up for the oppressed. It exposes the terrorism of the US and the Israeli regime and even tells the truth that the real killers of 3,000 Americans on 9/11 were the Mossad and the American deep state themselves!

Resistance rooted in Imam Khomeini's anti-Zionist vision: Yemen PM

Even more impressive is Imam Khomeini's spiritual acumen. At a young age, he became an ordained cleric as well as a gnostic. Despite becoming the leader of one of the wealthiest nations, he chose to live a very simple lifestyle, compared to the mansions and palaces of the deposed Pahlavi dynasty ruler

He presented the world with an alternative to the godless liberal capitalism of the West and the godless Marxism of the East: a divine political ideology that attends to both the material and spiritual well-being of mankind.

A man of God who sincerely wished to rid the world of corruption and pave the way for the return of Imam Mahdi (aj) and Jesus Christ (as) so that all bloodshed and wickedness may disappear from this earth, especially on the systemic level of governance, Imam Khomeini was in a league of his own.

He is also one of the most misunderstood figures in the West. It is a crime within a crime that the slander of his life and character has prevented people around the world from seeing the true beauty of Islam and the Islamic Revolution.

The fact that spirituality still exists on this earth and has not been consumed by godless materialism is due to personalities such as Imam Khomeini. The fact that independent countries still exist, and have not been devoured by the US and the Zionists is due to leaders like him.

The fact that oppressed peoples have the military means to stand up for themselves and resist bloodthirsty Zionists and Americans is due to humble and righteous statesmen like him. The fact that Daesh was defeated at the hands of Iran and its allies is due to the foundation set by this godly leader.

All people, from East to West, must learn the truth about this noble statesman because he is unlike any other statesman the world has seen.

His politics was not that of personal enrichment, seeing himself as superior to the people, and using his platform to murder and pillage countless innocent people around the globe. His politics was the politics of Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, and Imam Ali, peace be upon them. For them, politics was only a means of serving the Creator and His creation, because if people aren't ruled by servants of God, they will automatically be ruled by servants of the devil.

When the people learn the truth about Imam Khomeini and his divine politics, in contrast to the murky politics they have become accustomed to knowing, then the choice becomes easy as to who they will respect and side with.

Do they side with the mass murdering pedophiles that make up the US and Israeli regimes, or side with a humble, righteous servant of God who practices what he preaches?

Do they side with politicians who spend their time on Epstein Island or someone who stands up for the rights of oppressed children around the world, including Palestine?

The choice is clear. Anyone who still has the spark of humanity in his heart will automatically choose Imam Khomeini as a true statesman to respect and emulate in letter and spirit.

Instead of demonizing the Islamic Revolution and its founder leader, people of the world could benefit by learning from his life and supporting political leaders who share similar traits of sincerity and humility.

Those who grew up in the West like me, who woke up from their brainwashing and found them to be thirsty for righteous political leaders, will have their thirst quenched if they know Imam Khomeini.
