Short doco: Iran: The making of a war
A CIA-MI6 coup in 1953 ousted the democratically elected prime minister of Iran, Mohammad Mosaddegh & installed a US-compliant monarchy under Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
Societal discontent with two decades of Pahlavi's repressive policies & continued western interference culminated in the 1979 revolution led by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
