I continue to contend that a lot of this stuff can be traced back to Wahhabism, from which Khomeini borrowed a lot as far as popular eschatology goes. The first Hizb-e-Shaitan of the Wahhabis, even according to pro-Saudi sources, was the "apostate" rulers of the Ottoman Empire.

I agree. These are not mutually exclusive threads in Muslim eschatology.
