Rubio: Imagine if Iran funded the well-being of its people, rather than its military
Trump, two days later: We canโt fund daycare or Medicaid, we need more money for our military
Huge moment from @GeorgeMonbiot on #BBCQT.
Britain and the US overthrew Iranโs elected leader Mohammad Mossadegh in 1953 after he nationalised oil.
The Shah followed. Then the 1979 revolution.
Decades later the consequences are still unfolding.
Thatโs imperial blowback.
Britain defended corporate oil interests abroad and yet at home we let our own resources flow into the global market instead of protecting national wealth.
History has consequences.
