Did the CIA needed to Intervene Iran back in the 1950s?
The reason why the CIA intervened in Iran because the British was resentful of the nationalization of the oil industry that Iran had taken in the 1950s. The British asked the United States for help and of course the CIA wanted to do so they can justified its existent. Doing something is better than doing nothing at all, then why we need a CIA if they don't do anything. Iran had a valid reason to want more control over its oil because they want it the profits to stay with in Iran instead of being outsourced also the British had also a valid reason to keep its oil corporations because it is either going to be the British cashing in or Iran cashing in. If I had to take a side in all of this I would have to side with the people of Iran. But this is a highly un-libertarian way of thinking state vs state on the issue of oil. The reason why I would choose Iran over the British is because the British people don't live in Iran. What the British corporations should of done was to actually work with the people of Iran to insure that both sides would win. They could of "share" some of the profits to an organization that would help the people of Iran to better themselves. So, the corporations would set up organizations that would be run by the Iranians that would best help the Iranian people, this could be done through various ways. What came to mine was helping Iranians to be successful business owners or giving out loans to the Iranian business so that they could grow and prosper, but instead the corporations had to look towards the British government to help them out and the British wanted the United States to help because the United States had more of an expertise in foreign intelligence. Iran would be a lot more prosperous if the corporations gave back to the local communities in a business way, maybe even charitable ways, but in this case it would be more appropriate for corporations to set up organizations that would help other organization like business owners and educational organizations. This whole idea having to intervene in Iran would of never been thought of if the corporations were good to its surrounding communities.
