Dates:

On February 1st, Khomeni returned to Iran.

February 4th commemorates the establishment of the PLO.

Dates and numbers matter.

The 1928 (Khalifa) movement started, after the Ottomans fell in 1923, in March of 1928. There are some accounts that have Ali, the 4th Caliph (last of the ‘Rightly-Guided’ and the source of the split between Sunni & Shia) being murdered in 661 on January 24. (This date is disputed).

However, that Tunisian man performed self-immolation on Dec. 17th, 2010—Ashura having been on Dec. 16th in 2010. (Shah’sse, wah’sse) (Ashura is the holiday that men & boys dress in white and parade through the streets cutting themselves up.)
