Two World Religions OPVLS for IA

OPVLS:
OPVL #1:
This source originates from MSN Encarta. The purpose is to give an overview of the Iranian Revolution from start to finish. This resource is valuable in that it outlines the entire Iranian Revolution, also including what happened prior to and after the revolt; making it easier to clearly see where radical Islam was involved. Although this source is extremely valuable, it also has limitations. One of which is the fact that it shows absolutely no historical perspective.
OPVL #2:
This source originates from the website of Time Magazine. It's purpose is to remind and inform people about the revolutionary leader from the Iranian Revolution; Ayatollah Khomeini whose name means "inspired of God". This source is valuable in that it gives an overview of Khomeini and an insight into a part of radical Islam. Though this an invaluable source it, like all sources, is limited. This is because it does not include any historical perspective at all.
