Original Note:
Many people fled Iran when the US backed dictator was brought down in the revolution. The context should be clear that Khomeni stated at the time "We recognize our Jews as separate from those godless Zionists". There is still a large Jewish community in Iran today. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2020-08-22/ty-article-magazine/.premium/the-iranian-jews-who-joined-the-islamic-revolution/0000017f-db3d-db22-a17f-ffbdf12d0000 https://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2015/02/19/387265766/irans-jews-its-our-home-and-we-plan-to-stay https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/oct/13/cia-1953-iran-coup-undemocratic-argo
