Persian Knights: CIA-sponsored coup against Mossadegh
http://persianknights.blogspot.com/2007/12/cia-sponsored-coup-against-mossadegh.html
Monday, December 10, 2007. CIA-sponsored coup against Mossadegh. All the Shah's Men. Professor of political science at Northwestern University. James Risen, a reporter on the New York Times, deserves credit for bringing much of the truth to light. Might throw him off balance or force him to make a false move. It was a classic challenge of psychological warfare.(p. 174). In one of the most stunning political collapses of the 20th century, the Shah was forced to flee his homeland in January 1979. This ...

Persian Knights: The "Bakhtiari Alphabet" Film
http://persianknights.blogspot.com/2010/03/bakhtiari-alphabet-film.html
Thursday, March 4, 2010. The "Bakhtiari Alphabet" Film. A screening last night at the Chestnut Hill Library of the "Bakhtiari Alphabet," a documentary about the tribe of nomadic pastoralists living in Iran. The film was preceded by a PowerPoint presentation, which highlighted the demographics and geographics of the Bakhtiari people and their range. I recall the late Ali Morteza Samsam Bakhtiari, the head of the Iranian Oil Company, and how important "Roots" were to him. He wrote an essay by that titl...

Persian Knights: December 2007
http://persianknights.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 10, 2007. Persia, Islam and the Soul of a Nation. By Sandra Mackey (1996). That "intervention" was an engineered coup against Prime Minister Mossadeq by the CIA. One can allow some latitude to this author because the date of her book (1996) is before the revelations came out. Nevertheless, the passage seems to me hardly more than a tissue of falsehoods. The passing of the imperial handshake from Britain to the US was a dark moment in our history. CIA-sponsored coup against Mossadegh.
