This is not taught at our schools. History of Iran from 1953 to Present.
In 1953 the U.S. overthrew the democratically elected Iranian Premier Mossadegh and installed a Pro-US Shah dictatorship to take over the government and Iranian oil fields. This operation was called Operation Ajax, conducted by the American CIA and british MI5.
When elected, Premier Mohammad Mossadegh just signed a new law which stated that all profits from resources situated in Iran should be given to the Iranian people. He kicked out British Petrol (BP) and Standard Oil who were exploiting the oilfields in Iran and then he created the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company.
An operative of the CIA, Kermit Roosevelt was given control over the secret coup operation from Tehran. Kermit organised and funded major anti-Mossadegh protests, he used "False Flag" terrorist attacks, where CIA agents sprayed crowds with machine guns and then throwing pamphlets of Mossadegh saying: Up Mossadegh, Down With Islam, to make people think it was him organising the terror. The CIA bombed innocent people blaming Mossadegh to rally the people of Iran to commit, or not resist the full fledged military coup which would happen just after.
The new Shah of Iran ofcourse immediately reversed the new signed law about the oil fields, and he instituted a notorious secret police force called SAVAK, who for 25 years oppressed the people who were against the newly instituted dictatorship.
