Oil! An exact repeat of why US-UK organised a military coup to overthrow the democratically elected government of Iran in 1953: “Our policy,” a British official explained, “was to get rid of Musaddiq as soon as possible.” As for his preferred Western replacement, an intelligence memorandum in August 1952 suggested that “we should leave the name-suggesting to the Americans... It should not be difficult to bring the Americans’ candidate... to power.”

Trump: We want it back. They took our oil rights. We had a lot of oil there. As you know. They threw our companies out and we want it back.
