Muhammad Mossadegh
(iranian history) (1882-1967) democratically elected prime minister of iran from 1951 to 1953. ousted by coup d’etat organized by mi-6 and the cia after he nationalized the -ssets of the anglo iranian oil company (bp, p.l.c.).
mossadegh was involved in the 1924 const-tutional revolution that was supposed to have ended autocracy in iran and replaced it with a democratic republic. instead, reza khan (shah reza) replaced the qejars as as monarch. later, mossadegh rose to power because of rising anger at colonial deal between aoic and iran. his nationalization of aoic triggered a balance of payments crisis for the uk, and two years later he was ousted by operation ajax. after he was overthrown, shah muhammad reza was a dictator, and dependent on the usa to remain in power.
muhammad mossadegh was a true iranian patriot whose overthrow in a british petroleum-instigated coup poisoned relations between the usa and the islamic world.
