Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Ruhollah Mousavi Khomeini (21 September 1902 - 04 June 1989) was a senior Shi`a (Shi'ite) Muslim cleric, Islamic philosopher and Marja (religious authority), and the political leader of the 1979 Iranian Revolution which saw the overthrow of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah (king) of Iran.
Following the revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini became Supreme Leader of Iran—the paramount symbolic political figure of the new Islamic Republic until his death. Khomeini was known as an anti-colonial leader who created the post-colonial state, Islamic Republic of Iran after a referendum.
Ayatollah Khomeini was a Marja al-Taqlid, ("source of imitation") and important spiritual leader to many Shi'a Muslims.
He was named Time's Man of the Year in 1979 and also one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people of the 20th century.

Get the Khomeini mug.verb To direct righteous indignation at a nonprofit that does something that offends you in some way, most specifically used to target the charity's donors in an attempt to cut off its funding sources as punishment for the transgression. First usage occurred in February 2012 when the Susan G. Komen Foundation's fundraising was annihilated for its decision to stop funding Planned Parenthood grants.
"I'm so angry with the local arts foundation for not funding my friend Terri's nude photography exhibit that all our friends decided to komenize that foundation and start a campaign to drive away all their donors as punishment".
"If you don't like what a charity's doing, you need to komenize those people so that they don't have any more funding".

I did find this on wikipedia:
"The title "Khomaniac" is a play-on-words reference to Iranian supreme leader Ruhollah Khomeini, merging his last name with the word "maniac". The lyrics refer to Khomeini's dictatorship from 1979 to 1989 and the nearly 8 year Iran-Iraq War"
