Statements [The limits of freedom in the Islamic Republic]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
I have an acquaintance with your family. Aqa Sayyid Ahmad, your late father, and Aqa Sayyid Muhammad-Taqi, may God bless them. They died serving Islam. So, I have a record of knowing them. But, as far as Jalal Aqa Ahmad, I saw him only for a quarter of an hour. It was in the beginning of the campaign I saw a gentleman sitting in a room. His book" The Westernization" was before me. He told me:" How is it that this nonsense has reached you?" He said something to that effect. I concluded that he was Jalal Al-e Ahmad. Regrettably I did not see him again. May God bless him. You too I see you sometimes in TV.
[Mr. Shams Al-e Ahmad said:" I was happy once I attended you when you had set a congregation meeting in remembrance of my late father in Qum in the year 1341. Another time also I attended you.]
[Imam Khomeini continued:]
You know better as to the position of Ittila`at and Kayhan in the past and now how it is. Regrettably, as you know, we are in a difficulty of having a few people so called open-minded westernized. They do not allow any reformation ot take place in the country. In the past, Shah was a hurdle, and now these people are. These persons might not be those ones, but hey do their job. If we say a newspaper to be in line with the nation. You are from the nation. What the nation wants, you should write in the newspapers. A newspaper which is anti-Islamic and against the nation's desires and comes out without permission, it should be held up. These open-minded westernized groups clamor in the newspapers that pen is free. Whether every pen? Speech is free- but every speech? For instance, there is a type of speech that gives up the country to the big powers. Whether can that type of speech be free? Shall we call it freedom that drags the country to corruption and impudicity. There is a pen in the service of Zionism. There is a newspaper run at their expense. It has no such a circulation to manage itself. Should we say to them that they are free? In which part of the world you can find so many newspapers after a revolution taken place? All the newspapers you see, even the organ of the party, so much freedom is given to the people. Where in the world such a thing has happened? After the revolution, people pour into the streets and say whatever they want. Nobody stopped them for five to six months. Later they deducted that they constitute a group inside the country and are related to foreign. Their activity is anti to the country and its interests. In spite of this, should we say that you are free? It is only for the sake of the word freedom. The freedom should have its frontiers and boundaries. It should be that, which the nation wants. Not that one is free atainst his own nation. Well, I am free. I have a gun too in my hand. I can kill one. What type of freedom is this? Freedom has a standard. Thanks God, so far I have heard you speak with reason. Now you are given access to `Ittila`at'. The standard of freedom that you have and the same standard should be in the journals, you go ahead with all the strength and power. The journals should be in the service of the nation, not against. No one can tell you `backward'. To others the writers might say such a thing. But to you, they cannot say. You act strongly. These elements against the revolutionary course and the campaign should be purged from the newspaper.
