A Biography: Dr. Mossadegh. From this biography.......
In the 15th Majlis elections, because of the election
rigging, Mossadegh did not get the chance to enter the
Parliament.......
Despite all the interference and frauds of the Shah during
the 16th Majlis elections, the fake ballot boxes were
announced expired, and the Royal Court minister was
assassinated. In the second round of the elections,
Mossadegh and a group of his companions were elected. It
was this Parliament that approved the nationalization of
the Iranian oil industry. A while later, the Majlis
elected Mossadegh as the new Prime Minister.
When Mossadegh became Premier in 1951 <but not
democratically elected>, the first thing he did after
introducing his cabinet, was the enforcement of the Oil
Nationalization Bill.
In 1953......
Disputes between the Parliament and the cabinet increased,
and following the Majlis member's abstractions Mossadegh
declared a national referendum to let the people choose
between dissolving of the Parliament, or cabinet's
resignation. In this plebiscite,( criticized by many,
because of the separation of the Yes and No ballot boxes,
and not being held at the same time nationwide), the
majority voted against Majlis. In August 1953, therefore,
the Parliament was officially dissolved.
On August 16, 1953, in an American-British orchestrated
conspiracy, the Shah <the current leader of Iran>
dismissed Dr. Mossadegh. The chief of the Royal Guards
served Mossadegh with the formal dismissal notice. He was
also ordered to occupy the house by the Royal troops as he
was ordered to. But when soldiers reached the Mossadegh's
house, Mossadegh's guards immediately arrested the Royal
Guard's chief and his troops. The coup was publicized and
the Shah fled to Italy.
On 17th and 18th of August, people took to the streets in
support of Mossadegh and the statues of the Shah and his
father pulled down all over the country.
On August 19th, the secret services of the U.S and Britain
(CIA - MI6), engineered a more precise and expensive coup
and this time succeeded in overthrowing Mossadegh's
government. On this tragic day, after bribing some people
from different walks of life, those behind the coup managed
to pull a large number of hooligans into the streets to
rally against the national government of Dr. Mossadegh......
The following day, Dr. Mossadegh and his loyal companions
surrendered themselves to the coup Prime Minister, General
Zahedi. A few days latter, the Shah returned to Iran from
Italy <and resumed power that has been taken by Mossadegh
in his August 16 coup>, and began his 25 years of despotic
reign.
