Interesting sideline here...when it was reported that Khomeni referred to the United States as the great "Satan", what he actually said was "Shay-tan" which in farsi means "the trickster". This was in response to Western vices (booze, gambling etc...) that were becoming more common under the US installed Shaw. He was in no way comparring the United States to what we think of as the devil or evilness.
