@hasanminhaj: An Iran history lesson from Mehdi Hasan

jeneralhavok :

if capitalism worked it wouldn't need to overturn communist systems.

Nabz :

Wrote a whole paper on this about how the United States has this constant cycle of manipulation and hides it. Asked my professor if we can work to publish it.

Ashkan :

Such a horrible period it was economy was booming people had jobs, iran was a major travel destination but yes oof terrorists would get arrested by the intelligence police, same terrorists that run the government now and this guy supports them indirectly.

Ope! MN Dad here! :

More info I didn’t learn in school. How fun.

MIS_CATLADY🇲🇹💙🇲🇽💙🇺🇲 :

Everyday I learn something new about our country. 💔

sia :

I was 8 years old and some of my friend was in that aeroplane. I still remember that.

S.Ray 🇨🇦 :

Unfortunately , not all information is accurate

Robert Miller :

Watching from the USA. I had no clue

FavoredWhiteTiger :

What an eye opener, wow information is key.

blob :

Mehdi Hasan is a brilliant orator and debater.

by Marisa Yana :

History is so important

Elnico :

Schopenhauer :

Funny how you guys never talk about Ukrainian airplane shot down by Iran

Walter Johnstone :

The story of our involvement in Iran was the very first episode of the Throughline podcast back in 2019. The title was "Four Days in August"

Luffy :

Not true. Many in Iranian diaspora don’t know about Mossadegh also. 😂 I talked with a few online. I was very surprised that something a Bangladeshi guy like me knows about their country but they don't. I didn’t even seek the information. It comes to you automatically if you care a bit about Iran's conflicts.

Eva Giannoukou :

Funnily enough, I had a first hint of USA’s role in overthrowing parliamentary democracy in Iran, through Noam Chomsky’s work, the work of a world-renowned American-Jewish academic. It is fair to say, though, that I deliver in the USA.

Sheilla A. :

History teacher here, I teach about what happened in 1953!!!

Palm Bites :

Thank you for publicizing this. So many people either have recency bias or are not aware of this part of history.

Martonytho :

Every time I’m reminded of US history

Mallory :

I’m pretty sure a Lego video taught me this last week

poboxy :

also where was Khomeini before the revolution? France

Eveshamwitness :

This was a very interesting watch and educational, as a Brit
