During the [[Khomeini]] period, [[Iran]] saw a large boost in [[Shi'a]] [[nationalism]]. In his book, ''[[Hokumat-e Islami : Velayat-e faqih (book by Khomeini)|The Islamic Government]]'', Khomeini recycled various conspiracy theories about [[Jews]] made popular by the forgery, ''[[The Protocols of the Elders of Zion]]''.
