He speaks. He is tangible.Let me also say, at the same time, do not think for a moment that I am a brainwashed person; that is not the case at all. When I have an opinion, I state it very decisively. If I have a criticism, I say it. If my view opposes his, I speak up.And I always have.It’s not about those things."Shortly after the victory of the Revolution, Ghotbzadeh was executed on charges of attempting to overthrow the Islamic Republic and planning the assassination of Ayatollah Khomeini.I recommend watching this documentary; it is full of historical truths that are repetitive.
