Terrorists Crushed Iranian Democracy: 52nd Anniversary of Terrror Against Mossadegh In an age of War on Terror and the Staged Terror in London, Iranians and the world must remember and never forget the terror that was unleashed on Iran 52 years ago. Terrorists came from London and New York. They not only obliterated Democracy but put thousands of Iranian Patriots in front of firing squads in the blood bath that followed. The effect of this shameful terrorism has injured the Iranian psyche for generations to come. It was re-enforced by the CIA’s after-shock and Terror of 19...
