Описание: Why did the CIA overthrow Irans democratically elected government? And why has the United States treated Iran as one of its biggest enemies for four decades? Is the Trump administrations Maximum Pressure campaign working, or will it precipitate a war with Iran?
In The CIA Insiders Guide to Iran: from CIA Coup to the Brink of War, former CIA Officer John C. Kiriakou and investigative journalist and historian Gareth Porter explain how and why the United States and Iran have been either at war or threatening such a war for most of the forty years since Islamic Republic of Iran was established. The authors delve below the surface explanations for the forty-year history of extreme U.S. hostility toward Iran to blow up one official U.S. narrative after another about Iran and U.S. policy.

Against the background of Irans encounters with heavy-handed British and Russian imperialist control over its resources, this book shows how the U.S. began its encounter with Iran by clearly siding with British imperialism against Iranian aspirations for control over its oil in its 1953 overthrow of the Mossadegh government, then proceeded to actively support the Saddam Hussein regimes horrific chemical war against Iran.

The book shows how a parade of politically-motivated false narratives have taken U.S. Iran policy progressively farther from reality for three decades and have now brought the United States to the brink of war with Iran. It explains how Donald Trumps trashing of the the nuclear deal with Iran and seeking to cut off Irans oil exports creates a very high risk of such a war, demanding major public debate about changing course.

The CIA Insiders Guide to the Iran Crisis also includes appendices with key official documents on U.S. policy toward Iran, with particular emphasis on the major official statements of the Trump administrations Maximum Pressure strategy.
