Tyranny starts at home, I think it started in England and then wider "Britain", with Welsh and Scottish working class people treated even worse than English ones, and then Irish treated even worse again, and then the further away you go the worse. And then nowadays the English working class somehow identify with the monsters who were intentionally letting their own ancestors starve and working them to death, not to mind ours, and somehow think that all that was done for them, rather than the rich, because they get to look at nice buildings that some of their ancestors died building.

@@zzulm Even today presidents refuse to open up the files on the assassinations of great leaders like JFK, RFK, MLK, and Malcolm X.

The failure to open up about the assassinations and False Flags including 9/11 here as well as abroad is why the US has become incorrigible. TheTrumpster, for example, got away with slaughtering Iran's Quds Force top commander Qassem Soleimani and Iraqi militia commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis in a U.S. airstrike at Baghdad airport, Iraq, February 13, 2020.Jun 10, 2020 with barely a protest despite the fact it violates international law.

We profoundly alienated a great nation with a millenia-long civilization. Ironically what did the Shah in was his ambition to drag Iran into the 20th century the way Ataturk did with Turkey, alienating the religious establishment. The ramifications of the coup are still rippling in the world today.

@@rostamr4096 We in Australia had an overthrow of the Gough Whitlam government in the early 70's. We had a broadly similar constitutional crisis engineered by local political forces and there is some evidence of CIA and British involvement. Our Prime Minister was sacked by the Governor General representing the Queen of England in very fishy circumstances too complicated to go into here. This was because our government was going to join the Unaligned Movement, seeking finance in the 3rd world rather than the US/UK (and of course we were told we were going communist by the conservative opposition). It's strange however that Malcolm Fraser (the conservative successor to Gough) kept much of the left wing policy though somewhat watered down. Recently as an elder statesman he went to speak on Russia Today against the expansion of NATO and on Ukraine. He was also very concerned about the sovereignty of Australia in relation to the current "rules based order". He died before the outbreak of war in Ukraine, which is a shame. It would have been interesting to hear what he had to say. More recently we had another Prime Minister deposed with (some have suggested) more foreign meddling - Kevin Rudd. In that case it seems to have been mostly about his positions on China and Israel.

A cross between a demonstration protest and remembrance. I found the experience more educational and spoke to a few of those involved. One of the people involved was imprisoned in Iran for 4years. The dignity and grace was only matched by compassion and surpassed with intelligence and honesty. That was a middle aged woman named Monir. God bless you and yours.

Let's assume that foreign countries such as Britain and America helped the Shah, but that is not proven. Assume they did, the Shah was able to bring prosperity, modernity, women's rights, build infrastructure, and improve everyone's life, something that could not have happened if Mosadegh had remained in power or worse, communists led by the Tudeh party had taken the country over and handed over the Soviet.

Within the first few seconds, Chris showed how much he did not know about Iran and the Iranian constitution. 1. Per the Iranian constitution, prime ministers are NOT elected by the PEOPLE. They are Appointed by the King. This is clearly indicated in the constitution of Iran, Called Mashroteh going back to before Pahlavi. 2. Shah had the right, power, and the right by the constitution to remove the Prime minister who had decided to resolve the parliament. 3. Mosadeh tried to run a populist campaign with the Tudeh party's help( a Soviet-backed, trained, and financed). 4. The Soviets ordered the Tudeh party(hell-bent on handing over Iran to the Soviets) to start supporting Mosadegh. 5. The Tudeh party saw Mosadegh as a weak and naive person who could later replace him to take over the country. 6. The Tudeh party had infiltrated the Iranian armed forces set up checkpoints and provided security detail for Mosadegh and his residence. 7. Since Mosadeh was refusing to leave and was backed by the communist-infiltrated army, there was no choice but to force him out. 8. The loyal army to the Shahj with the help of people on the streets were able to remove and arrest him. 9. Mosadeh was put on trial and was treated fairly by the judicial system in Iran. 10. Let's assume that foreign countries such as Britain and America helped the Shah, but that is not proven. Assume they did, the Shah was able to bring prosperity, modernity, women's rights, build infrastructure, and improve everyone's life, something that could not have happened if Mosadegh had remained in power or worse, communists led by the Tudeh party had taken the country over and handed over the Soviet.

Believe it or not, the so called Islamic Revolution in 1979 was another coup. But this time the coup was against the Shah. A few months after August 53 coup, a 25 year oil contract was signed between Iran & the newly formed oil consortium which ended in early 1979. Shah had refused to renew it and was forced to leave Iran in January of 1979, coincidence?

I watched a documentary on the Australian government owned abc Australian broadcasting corporation. It explained how the British couldn’t overthrow Mosaddegh so they involved the Americans. The deal was if the cia could orchestrate the coup Britain would go 50/50 with America on irans oil. They even involved the Queen. They got her to write a letter to the shar asking him not to flee Iran and he stayed. Coup was orchestrated and the shar was put back in. I wouldn’t imagine this level of detail would have been on the abc if the UK hadn’t admitted.
