Operation Ajax
Once upon a time, the U.S. and Iran actually had close ties. However, the falling out is believed to have started in 1953. The CIA played a role in “Operation Ajax”, a plan to overthrow Prime Minister Mosaddegh and his elected government. Iranians no longer trust Americans because the USA was set to receive 40% of the country’s oil industry thanks to the Shah.
