History you aren’t taught: The coup against Iran’s Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh by the CIA and MI6 in 1953

Mosaddegh had pursued nationalist policies and was widely-popular, having nationalised Iran’s oil to stop British exploitation of Iran’s natural resources. Winston Churchill considered Iranian oil to be Britain’s.

Contrary to the US’ and UK’s claims to promote democracy and freedom around the world, the US and UK backed The Shah of Iran Mohammad Reza Pahlavi to overthrow Mossadegh and return Iran to authoritarianism, while being a compliant leader that followed Washington’s and London’s orders.

After the coup, Iran’s oil was once again privatised and divided up among the UK, US, and some European countries through a new oil consortium in 1954. 40% of the shares went to the British oil company BP. 5 American oil companies had significant stakes in the consortium.

The dictatorship of Pahlavi, enforced by the ruthless SAVAK, for Western oil companies to steal Iran’s oil, triggered such anger among the Iranian population that it led to the revolution in 1979, which gave birth to the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The roots of the war on Iran today are the MI6’s and CIA’s attack on Iranian democracy in 1953…but the US and Israel claim to be perpetrating this destabilising and disastrous war to advance democracy and ‘freedom’.

History shows they are lying.

Great reporting & analysis - as always - from @ConorGallaghe_r - No military officer, of whatever nationality, should (as a guest of the state) critique our Neutral status - Especially an officer whose Commander in Chief, #Trump has committed US troops to an illegal war in Hormuz

What if all Palestinians convert to Judaism? do we get to stay?

NO! Because Israel categorically rejects Palestinian converts to Judaism. Last time a Palestinian tried, David Ben Avraham, the IDF shot him dead.

It's not about religion. It's about settler colonialism!

A walk, up around the Hellfire yesterday, strange fruit on the trees, plastic bags full of dog shite, and then a babies dirty nappy just thrown in the car park. Bring it home or bin it properly. If that’s your behaviour stay at home.

[Abrar Khan @2ndslip2]

@oldnurse55 Been there few times, it's a lovely walk.

"Forty-four children, 38 women and seven people with disabilities were listed among the dead...

"They were killed when a residential block in the Sabra neighbourhood of Gaza City was attacked by Israel on 22 November 2023."

Today marks 3 years since Imran Khan was unjustly incarcerated.

He is still being denied basic human rights and remains in solitary confinement.

His abominable treatment is an affront to democracy. I will continue to demand the release of all political prisoners, everywhere.

We had an Icon in Luke Kelly for years and years and still
Loving his past performances. Without realising we had another in Glen Hansard Who was also an Icon with his music and songs he wrote. Makes one feel guilty that he had to die for some of us to realise this.a true Dub.

@jamesfahey15 Hope it's not too sore.
