Enclosed is my second
letter to Ayatollah Khomeini
I'd like to share with your
readers.
I'm not so naive as to
think my letters have any
miracle he actually gets
them. . .but who knows?
Nothing tried, nothing
gained.
May 8, 1980
Dear Mr. Khomeini,
Today we will pay tribute
to our brave men who died
in your country. Our
president will eulogize them
Imagine how difficult your life would be without
the telephone to run your errands, keep you in OL]
with friends and summon help in emergencies. Now
United Telephone offers the TeleDialer 32 to FT
your telephone even more convenient.
The TeleDialer 32 remembers up to 32 numbers
you call frequently, and can dial any of them at 14.02
touch of a single button. Four “HELP” numbers (fire,
police, ambulance - whatever you select) are identified
by brightly colored over-size buttons, so a child,
babysitter or elderly person can call for assistance E111

Also, the TeleDialer lets you make all your calls by
push-button even if your regular phone has a conven-
tional dial. If the number you call is busy, don’t worry
about forgetting the number before you call again. Just
touch the “last number called” button, and presto - the
TeleDialer re-dials for you.
Best of all, the TeleDialer 32 costs less than you
might believe. For our United Telephone of Penn-
sylvania customers, it leases for only $5.75 per month
Cy
plus applicable service connection charges. You may
also choose to buy one for only $219.95.

or Phone Shop to learn how easy it is to make your life
easier.
for returning their bodies for
this proper memorial. It is
fitting that a nation honor its
men and women of courage,
even though you and I can
dispute their cause, just as
we dispute the cause you
claim for holding our people
hostage.
You have now held our
people captive for 187 days,
Mr. Khomeini. I once spent
a year in a prisoner of war
camp, so I can speak of their.
distress with some degree of
empathy. Certainly your
own experiences as an exile
and as a prisoner enable you
to understand also.
As I pointed out to you in
my previous letter, we
Americans are pre-occupied
with many things, not the
least of which are our people
being held prisoner in your
country. As you probably
know, we are accepting
many Cuban nationals into
the United States who have-
risked their lives just to
taste the sweetness of
freedom. We have already
welcomed many thousands
of Veitnamese people to our
shores, and even today
thousands more or your own
people are enjoying our
hospitality. The greatness of
this country is attributed to
the diversity of its people.
Just as we welcome all
who seek freedom, we cry
for those who lose it. Again I
beg you Sir, in the name of
Allah, the Compassionate,
the Merciful, let my people
go. Restore their freedom
and join us in securing the
liberty of all who suffer
under tyranny.
Salaam Aleichem,
