If you remember from Tuesday, I was quite intrigued by the short video that said "the Iran-Iraq war saved the Islamic revolution."
Now my question to you is: to what extent is this true? Your reply should contain information about Khomeini's consolidation, the acceleration of organization in the military and the surge of nationalism.
If you disagree, you might be able to substantiate your claims by mentioning some economic variables (something I discussed briefly during lecture towards the end)
See you on Tuesday!

I think you could suggest that the iran Iraq war saved the Islamic revolution because the economic and infrastructure after the devastation of the war as well as the sense that it was the world vs Iran breeds a climate condusive to any kind of movement against the establishment especially seeing as the world isolated the iranians.
