(FILES) In this file photo taken on September 26, 1980, the late founder of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini salutes his followers in the Iranian capital Tehnan. – Khomeini was an austere and charismatic cleric who became an icon of the 20th century for standing against the West and bringing down Iran’s monarchy, but also for his revolutionary ideas about Islams role in politics. The black-turbaned Shiite scholar spent more than 14 years in exile before returning to his homeland at the age of 76, two weeks after mounting protests forced the shah to flee into his own exile.
