On the subject of ‘Capitulation’, one of the authorities had arrived in Qom to meet the Imam. The Imam did not give him an appointment and thus he went to his son, Haj Mustafa and had told him that if the Imam wanted to speak on the subject of ‘Capitulation’ he must take care not to say a word against America and that to speak against America in those days was far more dangerous than speaking against the Shah. However, in that speech the Imam stated as follows: “The President of America should know that today, he is the most hated of individuals of mankind in the midst of our people. Today all our miseries is due to America”; and went on to level the fiercest attack on America.”[1]
