CIA operated coup

U.S. has played roles in suppressing democracies around the world: Ayatollah Khamenei

Since the year 1945, the American government has played a role in overthrowing 40 independent governments that were not dependent on America, taking military action in more than 20 cases! In all of these cases, America's interference has always led to massacres and great tragedies. Of course they have been successful in some cases and unsuccessful in others.

 

Salvador Allende of Chile, Mosaddeq of Iran democracies fell victims to CIA

To journalists or writers, piety, truthfulness, sincerity, and justice towards others should be second nature. I mentioned in my remarks, earlier this year, that some of the newspapers are bases of the enemies. Some were astonished [by this remark]! I recently heard about disclosure of Central Intelligence Agency’s documents, revealing its role in the press preceding the 1953 Iranian coup d'état.


Although I haven’t seen it myself, what is narrated is very interesting. This shows what newspapers were distributed in Tehran for preparing the grounds for the coup d’etat, supported by CIA’s money, leadership, and intellectual nourishment. We have also seen similar examples in other countries: In Chile at the time of Salvador Allende, newspapers played an important role in making the two-year-old government of Allende appear unsuccessful, mobilizing the public opinion against him to finally bring about that calamity for him. Of course, nobody confessed to it that day; but later it was known to everyone, who triggered it, what were the motivations of those who came to power, whom they were led by and those who prepared the grounds for it. We must not wait for the disaster to happen and then discover it. We must see it today and move forward, fully aware.

Africa, Latin America and Iran of the Pahlavi era were manupulated, suppressed by imperliasts 

If you read the books that were written during my youth about Latin America and Africa – like the ones written by Frantz Fanon and other authors of the time, which are still considered as reliable in the modern world – you would realize that the situation was the same at that time in Iran. No one was courageous enough to write about Iran during the Pahlavi era. But authors could freely write about, for example, Africa, Chile, and Mexico. When I read those books, I realized that the situation was exactly the same in Iran. That is to say, even young laborers who earned very little money for their hard work used to spend half of their money on alcoholic drinks, sex, and other such things. When I read those books, I realized that the same things were happening in Iran as well. The situation was truly bad at that time. The environment was not good for the youth. Of course the youth thought they were living in a different environment. That was because the youth are by their nature interested in vitality, hope, excitement, and similar things."

U.S. regime has played a role in toppling over 40 independent governments across the world

Since the year 1945, the American government has played a role in overthrowing 40 independent governments that were not dependent on America, taking military action in more than 20 cases! In all of these cases, America's interference has always led to massacres and great tragedies. Of course they have been successful in some cases and unsuccessful in others. The atomic bombings of Japan at the end of World War II and the bloody Vietnam War are two examples of their failure. They also overthrew governments in Chile and Iran – "The 28 Mordad Coup" – as well as other countries. All of these events were caused by great financial institutions, American tycoons, power thirsty parties, influential Zionist groups, and the individuals in charge who were morally and intellectually corrupt. They have a very disgraceful track record. These things are not insignificant. Americans do not care about human life, destruction of national wealth, justice, and human tragedies. None of these things are considered an obstacle in the way of Americans. Of course they are using their numerous propaganda machines and media facilities in order to save face. They try to cover up the tragedies they have caused through their media. They use their propaganda machines to portray themselves as supporters of peace, democracy, and human rights.
