Video Showing: Life of Dr. Mossadegh
The U.S. coup in Haiti and the war in Iraq must be seen in the context of a pattern of covert and overt military interventions. The 1953 CIA/British Intelligence overthrow of Dr. Mossadegh, Prime Minister of Iran, set the pattern for dozens and dozens of other bloody interventions from Chile to Afghanistan. This video promises to be interesting, plus it's free!
