Khomeini’s deliberate body language and speech style play a crucial role in his ability to convey power and authority, even when his statements lack credibility. Beshen notes that despite not believing it himself, Khomeini is able to effectively communicate his messages through the use of stable body movements and gestures. This stability helps to create an aura of control and intimidation around Khomeini, as his calm and monotone speech style further reinforces this effect.

However, some may question whether Khomeini is truly sane or if he is suffering from mental illness due to his extreme political and religious expressions. While there are no clear signs of madness in his personality, the combination of anger and a slight smile in his expressions may indicate a certain level of unpredictability or instability.

Regardless of this, Beshen argues that Khomeini’s ability to maintain control over his body language and emotions allows him to effectively communicate his messages, regardless of their credibility. Through the use of stable body movements and gestures, as well as a calculated speech style, Khomeini is able to turn the audience in his favor and maintain a sense of power over them.
