Both were U.S.-educated Last month Khomeini attacked those who want to rebuild links with the West and ‘denounced flagging revolutionary fervor Montazeri’s resignation came after Khomeini sent him a letter March 26 asking him to step down, Iran's official Tehran Radio, monitored in Cyprus, reported. “1 see myself compelled to obey your orders, because the survival and stability of the Islamic republic rests on obeying your command,”’ the radio quoted the 64-year-old Montazeri saying The immediate cause of Montazeri's ouster appears to be his critical assessment of the revolution’s accom- plishments. Montazeri said last month that Iranian leaders made many mistakes in the first 10 years of the revolution that isolated the fledgling republic from much of the world. After the speech, Khomeini blasted the man he personally selected as his successor, without mentioning Mon- tazeri’sname, “How short-sighted are those who think that because we did not reach final victory at the front, that martyr- dom and self-sacrifice are worthless,”” he said Immediately after the ceasefire in the eight-year Iran-Iraq war last August, Khomeini apparently gave free rein to pragmatists.
