Whenever the CIA's role in the coup which overthrew Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister, Mohammad Mosaddeq has been discussed, it has often elicited from the listener the glazed look which accompanies mention of anything remotely conspiratorial in the eyes of those who are plugged into the embedded news channels. Despite the growing irrelevance of the mainstream news networks in the newly connected world, in great part due to their inability to propagate the truth, it is of great significance when such an acknowledgement is made via their channels.
The CIA has had its filthy tentacles in coups and assassinations throughout its 66 year history and no doubt in the preceding years when it was the Office of Strategic Services (OSS).
As the newly released documents attest, the CIA was acting with MI6 not in the name of US national security but for private business interests, namely the Anglo-Persian Oil Company which went on to become British Petroleum (BP).
In light of this information, which is anything but a revelation to those who have charted real history rather than the propaganda version approved by governments, perhaps the words of Jiddu Krishnamurti might the encourage the dormant who ridicule those who question orthodox opinion to awaken:
'A consistent thinker is a thoughtless person, because he conforms to a pattern; he repeats phrases and thinks in a groove.'
CIA documents acknowledge its role in Iran's 1953 coup
