Desecrating the Ayhatollah’s grave?

Fundamental to the civic restructuring of Tehran lies the question of what to do with the disproportionae number of mosques and the  mausoleum of Ruhollah Khomeini, the treacherous anti-Iranian despot of  Indian origin. The ostentatious  tomb, which for a man who supposedly lived frugally, is an abomination to Iran. It’s ghastly edifice is a blotch on the landscape of Tehran and an insult to the memory of the thousands of Iranians who lie in eternal rest in the nearby Behesht Zahra cemetery.

Should we desecrate his grave as he did with Reza Shah the Great and build a public toilet over it? Should we demolish the monstrosity to make way for a sewage system running through it? Shall we built a luxury casino over it? Perhaps, we should let his tomb reside where it is and convert it into a chamber of horrors like Auschwitz to remind the world of the atrocities this genocidal maniac did in the name of Islam?

Should we build a memorial statute  near his coffin with the names of  the hundreds of thousands of Iranian political prisoners his regime has killed?

 Should his mortal remains be incinerated to prevent his supporters from creating a cult following in a future democratic Iran? 

Whichever way we address the challenge of Khomeini’s remains and that of murderers such as Sadegh khalkhali , we should at least bare his tomb for public condemnation for a certain time in the same ways Muslim pilgrims to Mecca are allowed to throw stones at the devil during Haj.
