On Aug. 19, 1953, 70 years ago this week, the democratically elected prime minister of Iran, Mohammad Mosaddegh-who had seized Iran's vast oil fields from the British and put them under Iranian control-was removed from power in a coup organized and financed by the British and US governments. He was replaced by the dictatorial Shah, who immediately signed over 40% of Iran's oil fields to US companies. The coup ushered in a long nightmare of repression, buttressed by Iran's brutal secret police, SAVAK, trained and equipped by the CIA. The Shah not only crushed the democratic aspirations of Iranians, but enriched US oil companies and purchased billions of dollars of weapons from US weapons manufacturers. The dictatorship of the Shah fueled the virulent anti-American backlash that led to the 1979 Revolution and the establishment of a militant Islamic government. The Iran coup also became the template used by the CIA to overthrow other governments around the globe that challenged US hegemony and the exploitation by global corporations. While the CIA has acknowledged its role in the 1953 coup, to this day, the British government has not confessed to its imperialist crimes in Iran.
Joining ‘The Chris Hedges Report’ to discuss his documentary, ‘Coup 53,’ is Iranian filmmaker Taghi Amirani. Amirani’s film uses newly discovered archival material to expose how the CIA and British intelligence worked clandestinely to overthrow Mosaddegh.

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. That is because the same groups that had them killed are still in power today. 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.

@rostamr4096 9 месяцев назад

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.@@martinoneill5804

Anglo-Iranian Oil Company became British Petroleum. Everytime I pass a BP service station (they bought Standard Oil of Ohio) I think of the coup. What a catastrophe. 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.

@asbeautifulasasunset 10 месяцев назад

I was a Teacher and UK schoolchildren to this day are not taught about their history - who wiped out the native populations of north America and Australasia, killed millions in Africa and scores of millions in British India. To be fair the trans Atlantic slave trade is touched upon but more with a view to praising themselves when the British empire "technically " abolished slavery. There is plenty taught about the Holocaust - never miss a chance to bash the Germans. The overthrow of Mossadeq is a tiny footnote in the litany of crimes committed by the British sadly.

@@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.

There was a remembrance of victims in Iran. Photographs of victims and a brief description of their age were displayed in the square below the arch. The whole ambience was solemn and dignified. 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.

A wise man once said, 'History is nothing more than a time-line of 'cause and effect'. And we're now living with the 'effect'. It's no wonder nobody wants to teach any 'truth' in History.

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?

Thanks for the report& facts. BP does not reveal the information on the time of being in Iran /South of Iran.

With all due respect, please forget about the foreign powers abusing the Iranian people 70rs ago and focus on the present brutal mullah regime of Iran holding 80 million people hostage, murdering, torturing and rubbing them😢

I had seen the documentary, but today's explanations by Professor Amirani was a real extension to that MUST SEE film. I did not know that after revolution the Mossadeq Street was renamed to something else after six month, very sad fact. .. California.

Strangest of all, why were the Khomeini revolutionaries housed in Paris ? Even though in 1971 the French organised the ridiculous expensive party when the Sjah celebrated the 2500th anniversary of the founding of the Persian Empire. France wasn't part of Nato at that time so it was only natural she went her own way in colonialist politics.

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.
