<p>Published by American Free Press The CIA in Iran reveals in shocking detail a once-top-secret report by a CIA field agent working in Iran. The report, which reads like a detective novel, shows how U.S. and British operatives employed every dirty trick at their disposal, including bribery, murder and terrorism, to eliminate a government they could not control and replace it with one they thought they could. It is the true story of how, in 1953, American agents destroyed the democratically elected prime minister of Iran, Mohammad Mossadeq, and maneuvered the infamous "Shah of Iran," Reza Pahlavi, into power. The installation the Shad led to Pahlavi's own ouster (he was feared by the majority of Iranians) and the creation of today's Iranian Islamic Republic. Following the overthrow in Iran, US intelligence repeatedly employed the same formula in future coup attempts, including the disastrous Bay of Pigs, but could never quite replicate its success. To this day, historians and journalists contend the CIA is still utilizing what agents learned in Tehran in 1953. Likewise, you can believe that foreign governments are all the more wary of US scheming, thanks to the release of this report. Today, the rift between the United States and Iran, short of war, could not be wider. AFP believes this book can help educate Americans about the history of disastrous US policies in the Mideast and will shed some light on the seminal event that instigated the tragic divide between America and Iran we are experiencing today. As this book went to press, the neo-cons in Washington and the extremists in Israel were hard at work enflaming US public sentiment for war with Iran. Both Israel and the US government have threatened tactical nuclear strikes if Iran dos not submit to Western hegemony. Will this become the next chapter in the book of Iranian-US relations? Only time will tell....</p>
