Ayatollah Khomeini established several institutions to protect the ideals of the Iranian Revolution, most notably the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in 1979. The IRGC was tasked with safeguarding the revolution's achievements and maintaining the Islamic regime's power against internal and external threats. Additionally, Khomeini emphasized the role of the clerical establishment and the concept of velayat-e faqih (guardianship of the jurist) to ensure that political authority remained aligned with Islamic principles. These measures aimed to solidify the revolution's ideological foundations and prevent any deviation from its core values.
liberty, fraternity, equality
No one - Ayatollah Khomeini had VERY DIFFERENT ideals to the regime set up that used his name (we must remember, Khomeini was very poorly healthwise by the 1980s and a lot of things were done in his name that he would not approve), he was exiled in France (the West) and his pre-revolutionary tapes did not feature anti-Western culture propaganda or repression. In fact, the original ideas of those who lead the revolution inclusive of Khomeini favoured a French style republic. The real (much more moderate Khomeini) and the popular image (an image largely forged by those who spoke in his name when Khomeini himself was sick) are very different. If Khomeini had good health, Iran would be very different today.
Both were inspired by Enlightment ideals.
The French Revolution was influenced by the enlightenment ideals of "natural law" and freedom. These ideals were also shown in the Declaration of the Rights of Man. Hope this helped(:
The motto of present day France was the ideal of the French Revolution-liberty, fraternity, equality. But it took quite a while for France to get on track with these ideals.
Revolutionaries needed to protect the ideals of the revolutions to ensure the goals of liberty, equality, and justice were preserved against potential threats, both internal and external. These ideals represented a break from oppressive systems and were essential for legitimizing their struggle and gaining popular support. Safeguarding these principles helped prevent the rise of authoritarianism and maintained the revolutionary spirit, fostering a sense of unity and purpose among the populace. Ultimately, protecting these ideals was crucial for establishing a stable and just society post-revolution.
