Learn about Ayatollah Ali Khamenei: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was born on April 19, 1939, in the Iranian religious city of Mashhad. He was against the policies of Khomeini Shah and advocated Islamic rule. He was also arrested in 1963 for making speeches against Shah. Gradually, he became a major face of the anti-government movement and became a trusted ally of Khomeini. In 1979, there was an Islamic Revolution in Iran and the Shah's government fell. Khomeini returned to the country and formed a new Islamic government. Khamenei found a place in the Revolutionary Council and was later appointed deputy defense minister. In 1981, Khamenei was bombed during a speech at a mosque in Tehran. In the same year, another bomb blast killed the then president. Khamenei won a landslide victory in the next election to become Iran's third president. After Khomeini's death in 1989, Khamenei was made the country's supreme leader. The constitution was also amended for this. Supporters see him as a strong defender of the Islamic order, while critics accuse him of running a harsh and hardline regime.
