#Khamenei may have been a murderer himself, and a terrible and brutal politician.
But that has nothing to do with it and is no reason to remain silent about the illegal and unmotivated war of aggression by #Israel and the #USA against #Iran.
It is up to the Iranian people to drive the wrong politicians out of office, as they did with Mohammad Reza #Pahlavi - and not, as in the case of #Mosaddegh, through a coup by the US and the UK.

#Documentary / Coup 53: CIA and MI6 overthrow of Iran’s budding Democracy in 1953
In 1953, the #CIA and #MI6 orchestrated a covert operation to overthrow #Iran’s democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad #Mosaddegh after he nationalized the oil industry, threatening Western corporate interests.
The 2019 documentary “Coup 53” by Iranian filmmaker Taghi Amirani exposes this historic betrayal of democracy using never-before-seen archival footage and documents. The film features Ralph Fiennes reading transcripts from MI6 agent Norman Darbyshire, who admitted involvement in the coup plot.
This wasn’t just regime change - it was the blueprint for decades of U.S. covert operations worldwide. The coup installed the autocratic Shah, whose brutal rule lasted until the 1979 Iranian Revolution.
The documentary proves what many suspected: democratic governments mean nothing in the context of Western imperialism when they threaten corporate profits or regional interests.

In 1953, the #shah was forced into exile under the radical nationalist and reformist impulse of the democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad #Mosaddegh. He was shortly returned to his throne through a #CIA-orchestrated #coup.
