Shirin You do not refer to people from the content of Asia as "oriental." It's racist! The people are called "Asian." Food, clothing and rugs are "oriental."
I'd like to see you go up to an African American and call them "colored." You'd probably get punched! Like, it was cool 60 years ago, but it's not politically correct anymore. Get current. -

Ayatollah Khomeini was ethnically Indian, since his grand-parents immigrated to Iran from India. Nevertheless as a result of centuries of intermixing with conquered and conquerers like Greeks, Arabs, Mongols, Turks and etc, there are few "Pure Persians" left in todays Iran.

How do you know there are few Pure Persians left today? In fact, there were and are many societies in Iran who have not married externally and have not accepted spouses from other than their heritage. Please read about Persian history and then comment about stuff like that.
It's really ignorant to say all communities in Iran were like mixed, just because in Persia's 7000+ year old histor5b4y it was twice conquered (once by the Arabs and once by Mongols)! In fact, it's interesting to know how preserved the Persian society has always kept itself from foreign influences throughout it's history!
Give some proof in the least so your points are valid.
Cheers.
