About 25 years ago, I think, this weird muslim cleric was interviewed by the now-aging journalist, Mike Wallace. And, Wallace asked the intepreter to translate a very "pointed" (and poignant) question, for Khomeini to answer.
The interpreter was said to have looked very, very fearful and hesitant to ask Khomeini that question (as though he feared for his life).
Mike [Wallace] encouraged him to do it, anyway.
So, the Iranian DID translate the question for that mad-dog idiot Khomeini...and, shortly after the interview was over, the Ayatollah had the interpreter killed, for asking the question: even though the question was not his [the interpreter's], but Wallace's.
Did any of you also see the "murder" in the face of Khomeini, at that time?
(My initial impression of Khomeini was that of a "murderous dog". It turned out to be correct)
NOTE: Any muslim that tells you that dissidents or just plain intellectuals are not murdered by their *ucked up leaders is a complete jackass & liar.

I remember that interview but I didn't know the interpreter died. Is there a news article on his death?

About that same time (approx. 1980) our family had two foreign exchange students from Iran living in our home and attending the local High School. I can remember from them how much they disliked their leader and thought he was a very bad person and they liked being in America a whole lot better.
