British intelligence MI6 worked with the US CIA to commit this atrocity. Mohammad Mossadegh was a prominent figure in Iran’s secular democracy and resistance to colonialism. He nationalized the oil industry and implemented radical measures like land reform, social security and wealth redistribution.
His popular policies directly threatened Western interests, and the response of the US and British intelligence to Mossadegh in “Operation Ajax” is a manual that has been repeated against anti-colonial and anti-imperialist leaders of the Global South many times since.
