So far I'm inclined to think that protesters are genuine and not "CIA puppets". The leftist accusation against the movement is puzzling.

Whether or not there are a few CIA-paid instigators is irrelevant, unproven and probably untrue. This is a genuine, massive movement against an illegitimate election and regime. Leftist freaks like George Galloway and others do the anti-war cause a huge disservice with their denial of the obvious.

Mossadegh Project Dr. Hossein Fatemi, Mossadegh's dynamic young Foreign Minister, could have fled Iran after the coup (as the Shah had done several times himself). Instead, he remained in hiding in Iran, was eventually discovered—arrested, brutally beaten, stabbed, and, on this day in 1954, executed in front of the Shah's firing squad. He was 35.

www.mohammadmossadegh.com
Biography of Iran's youngest Foreign Minister Dr. Hossein Fatemi, closest associate of democratically elected Prime Minister Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh, from 1951-1953. Dr. Fatemi was executed by a firing squad in 1954 after being captured by the Shah's forces.

Mossadegh Project Fabricated news stories (when writers simply *make stuff up*) happen. For all the lies spread about Mossadegh in the Western media, this British news item—published years before Mossadegh's death—is truly special. It begins, "I saw Mossadegh hanged today..."

Jim Wright points out the shortsightedness of the 1953 coup that led to the Islamic revolution in a 2006 Op-ed for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on nationalism. Wright is a former Congressman and Speaker of the House, Democrat from Texas, and author of several books.

John Kerry believes all the tough talk against Iran has strengthened, not weakened, the Islamic regime. The senior Senator of Massachusetts says of the 2009 election fraud protests, 'this is an Iranian moment, not an American one'.

That (abridged) quote warns not to play into the regime's hands by handing them the 'anti-imperialism' card, but no, it's unlikely Ahmadinejad would even *want* to be likened to Mossadegh.

Mossadegh Project "Iran", says Fareed Zakaria, is "an insecure Third World country with a GDP that is one 40th the size of America's, a dysfunctional economy, a divided political class...a government facing mass unrest at home...[and] an international embarrassment for a president."

I think an important point is being missing here. Most are confusing Iran and islam/mullah. Iran has not officially attacked but through funding of terrorism and its own mercenaries that are also being used to torment and murder our own people they are certainly a threat to not only the region but, the world. Zakaria does tend to exaggerate at ... See Moretimes but, he is not far on his assessment. Do not be angry at him or others when they point out a bunch of murderers and savages that have been running Iran or should I say ruining Iran for the past thirty years. Do not kill the message, kill the cause of the message.

Mossadegh Project "Mahatma Gandhi was a rare human being who, with a miraculous technique, brought India up to the heights on which she stands today", remarked Dr. Mossadegh in 1952. Today would be Gandhi's 140th birthday. Mossadegh, who would be 127, has often been compared with Gandhi •••►

www.mohammadmossadegh.com
GANDHI and MOSSADEGH are heroes in India and Iran for standing up to British colonialism. Comparisons have been made by many writers and are collected here. Time magazine has named both Man of the Year. Mahatma Gandhi, Mohammad Mossadegh, and Nelson Mandela are icons of justice throughout the world.

They are of course attainable but, you raised a very important "if" and that is as you mentioned Israel and the Jewish lobby in the US. As far as the so called green movement, this is simply a ploy by the regime itself to keep the people oppupied and by no means will it bring freedom and justice for the People of Iran. Let's not forget that the ... See Morecorrupt regime selected the candidates. We went through this with khatami and what did that acheive during two terms? Nothing. So even if mousavi became president, what was he going to do any different? Again, nothing. The only thing that this green movement has accompolished so far is the awakeining of the people and to represent the true face of this miserable regime. The only solution is a regime change and the downfall of the mullahs. How will that take place, it is to be seen. If they push the US and its allies on the nuclear issue than we will see a regime change much faster.

Right! The need to keep revisiting these old subjects, with all the tedium that goes with it, diminishes in proportion to how properly they are understood and addressed in the form of ►meaningful change◄ — but it has to reach the mainstream too, not just the intellectual elite.

An excellent recollection of speeches - thank you! Furthermore, may I bring you to the attention of a fantastic book written by Stephen Kinzer "All the Shah's Men". The only fault with Kinzer is his very liberal approach to the subject.
The Shah's 'White Revolution' was aimed at further destroying hopes of democracy for Iran paved by the great ... See Morepioneer Dr. Mossadegh. What is more sad about the decline of Mossadegh and his 1953 democracy was the fact that Iranians fell for the Anglo-trap of bringing down the PM Mossadegh, hence, consequently, bringing an end to their democracy, just as much as the youth in Iran are falling for a liberal misconception of democracy these days.
