khomeini follower chalenges his master's ideas

There is this funny argument that Iranian hardliners do most of the times and it say "If your enemy admires you or agree with you, you're definitely doing the wrong job and you have to correct yourself!" Last week, Karoubi, the parliament speaker, criticized this argument and said "If US. believe in god like we do, is it wrong?" It's the first time I hear it from one formerly Khomeini's close persons. Because the argument is coming from Ayatollah Khomeini and Karoubi was a young follower of him back then in 80s.
