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. https://www.aljazeera.com/video/featured-documentaries/2026/8/1/iran-the-making-of-a-war?ref=upstract.com #USPol #UKPol #EUPol #IranianHistory #CIA #MI6 #USCoup .

“Is Peter Mandelson a Russian or a Zionist asset?” by David Miller in Al Mayadeen English @uk_politics @UKLabour@mastodon.cloud “There appears to be some uncertainty in the British intelligence services about what is wrong with Peter Mandelson. On the one hand, a former MI6 officer with undisclosed, but possibly continuing connections to the agency, claims that Peter Mandelson may actually have been a long-term Russian agent or asset. On the other hand, the secret briefing materials produced by MI6 as part of the process of vetting Mandelson for the job of British Ambassador to the US, the most significant red flags were his connections to Israel or Zionist assets” https://english.almayadeen.net/articles/opinion/is-peter-mandelson-a-russian-or-a-zionist-asset #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #UK #Labour #Mandelson #MI6 #Russia #Israel #ZionistAsset #Epstein #UKLawyersForIsrael #Vetting #Thiel #Palantir #Rothschild

Kim Philby didn't need to betray ANY of it, it was so badly organised! "Far from the buttoned-up, bureaucratized #spying of the later #ColdWar period, the early post-war #MI6 & #CIA were an almost shambolic bunch. With little oversight, especially on the #US side, these #agencies could concoct whatever schemes & plans they fancied... they were less James Bond, more Monty Python..."

“The Secret British Intelligence War on Iran” by David Miller in Tracking Power Update @palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml @iran @BBCNews@flipboard.com @BBC@c.im “British intelligence spearheaded the overthrow of Iran’s elected prime minister in 1953, bribed officials, staged chaos and used the BBC for a coded coup signal — all to protect oil profits — after previously treating Zionist extremists as the top national security threat. Later and until today, they targeted the Islamic Republic of Iran and developed close collaborations with the Mossad” https://open.substack.com/pub/trackingpower/p/the-secret-british-intelligence-war #Press #SocialMedia #UK #Intelligence #MI5 #MI6 #Iran #Mossad #Mossadegh #Coup #BigOil #Israel #Irgun #SternGang #BBC #Nuclear

The Guardian | London Falling by Patrick Radden Keefe review – a compulsive tale of money, lies and avoidable tragedy by Ian Thomson A New Yorker writer traces the web of deceit that led a troubled teenager to his violent death Early one winter morning in November 2019, a surveillance camera at MI6’s headquarters on the Thames registered the silhouette of a young man on the balcony of an apartment complex on the opposite side of the river. It was dark but the fifth-floor balcony was brightly lit. The man seemed to hesitate a moment before he jumped. On the way down his hip struck the embankment wall and, possibly unconscious as he hit the water, he drowned. His body was found five hours later face down in riverbank mud, shirtless and in tracksuit bottoms. The autopsy revealed multiple injuries (including a broken jaw) that were caused either by the fall or by a prior assault; the pathologist was unable to determine which. The Metropolitan police identified the body as that of Zac Brettler, aged 19. He had spent the night he died with a gangland debt collector and drug trafficker named Verinder Sharma. Sharma, 55, said he owned the apartment and allowed Zac to stay with him in the complex rent-free. But phone records and CCTV showed that a third man, Akbar Shamji, had been present that night. A cryptocurrency and real estate trader who lived in Mayfair, Shamji denied any wrongdoing during police interrogation, and continues to maintain his innocence. He stated that Brettler was a compulsive liar who had pretended to be the son of a dead Russian oligarch in order to befriend him and his business associate Sharma. In a further bizarre imposture, Brettler used the alter-ego “Zac Ismailov” and even affected a Russian accent. Shamji could not be arrested on suspicion of murder since he was not in the apartment at the time of the fall. As for Sharma, the M16 camera provided proof that he had not pushed Brettler over the balcony. If these men did not cause the teenager’s death, who did? Continue reading...
