This was not the first or last CIA intervention its been going on for decades with
the help of other western intelligence agencies. These imperial meddling have
always gone on and still are. The US were supposed to different and as we know
that's all 'Hogwash' from the day Europeans landed in the new world and displaced
the natives ....Of Course the Aztec's , Incas and others were also imperial powers !

CIA admits involvement in Iran coup, 60 years on19 August 2013 Last updated at 23:25 BST
Sixty years ago on Monday, a coup in Iran shook the Middle East.
The democratically elected Iranian prime minister at the time, Dr Mohammad Mossadeq,
was overthrown, paving the way for Mohammad Reza Pahlavi to return to the country
as the Shah. Now for the first time, the CIA has officially acknowledged its own role in
the coup, releasing documents that detail America's hand in the events.

"Sixty years ago this Monday, on August 19, 1953, modern Iranian history took a
critical turn when a U.S.- and British-backed coup overthrew the country's prime
minister, Mohammed Mossadegh. The event's reverberations have haunted its
orchestrators over the years, contributing to the anti-Americanism that accompanied
the Shah's ouster in early 1979, and even influencing the Iranians who seized the U.S.
Embassy in Tehran later that year. But it has taken almost six decades for the U.S.
intelligence community to acknowledge openly that it was behind the controversial
overthrow. Published here today -- and on the website of the National Security Archive,
which obtained the document through the Freedom of Information Act -- is a brief
excerpt from The Battle for Iran, an internal report prepared in the mid-1970s by an in-
house CIA historian...".* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.
