Anti-Khomeini speaker
enrages Iranian students
(Continued from Page 1)

Several Iranian students were
allowed into the meeting, but most left
before the discussion period of the
forum. Some Iranians said they were
intimidated by the marshals and felt
they could not effectively protest.
KHALIL, WHO SAID she was raised
in a Muslim household, claimed
Khomeini and other Muslim
revolutionaries are oppressing Iranian
women, homosexuals, and Iranian
minority groups.
"They (the Islamic revolutionaries)
oppose the Shah because they lost the
social power they had in Iran before,"
Khalil said.
"Of course, they have to wear the
veil," she said of many Iranian women.
"They are very scared. They have
heard stories from Koran about wht
happens if they don't wear the veil."
She said she adopted her present views
while in school. Khalil added that

Islamic women are never exposed to
such an environment.
SEVERAL IRANIAN students
present said Khalil and the other SYL
members were not aware of the true
situation in Iran. They said Khomeini is
actively supported by most Iranian
women.
K. Bearoz, who said he was barred
from the forum because the SYL feared
violence from him, claimed Khalil was
not familiar with the Koran or the
policy of Khomeini toward women. He
said the Iranians have protested the
forums in the past because they were
not invited to expres their views on
Iran.
M. Abdoiah, an Iranian student, said
many of the "freedoms" advocated by
the SYL-such as homosexual
rights-would "destroy the society."
He also said the anti-Khomeini activists
are connected with the CIA.
