The headline of a recent Middle East Media Research Institute translation reads, "Khomeini Calls for Foreign Military Intervention in Iran." No, not that Khomeini. Ayatollah Hussein Khomeini, the grandson of the Iranian Islamic revolution's founding father, raised eyebrows several years ago by saying he wanted to see the mullahs deposed. Now he is making the case anew, arguing, during a recent interview with the Dubai-based Al Arabiya television news network's website, that "freedom must come to Iran in any possible way, whether through internal or external developments."

His comments have generated a flurry of interest, probably thanks to their shock value. But, for my money, the most noteworthy part of the interview came when Khomeini, who still lives in Iran, explained why he favored American intervention: "If you were a prisoner, what would you do? I want someone to break the prison."

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.
