Ah, but Iran already chose freedom. Unfortunately, they decided to use their freedom to take control of the oil in their country. From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27%C3%A9ta... "The 1953 Iranian coup d'état,[..], was the overthrow of the democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh in favour of strengthening the monarchical rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi on 19 August 1953, orchestrated by the United States [..] and the United Kingdom [..]" "Mosaddegh had sought to audit the documents of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC), a British corporation (now part of BP) and to limit the company's control over Iranian oil reserves" |
