Newark, Del. (Special to Informed Comment: Feature) - On August 19, seventy years ago, the legitimate government of Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh was toppled in a coup jointly orchestrated by U.S. and British intelligence agencies and their Iranian collaborators.  This article was first published in Persian in Iran in the journal Iran-e-Farda in February 1981.  Every year, on the anniversary of the Coup in Iran, I write an article but this time, in memory of my late brother who passed away on October 16, 2023, I have decided to have his article translated. - Fariba Amini Distortion in History By Mohammad
