It's just a prequel or brief sub-chapter of the control of energy resources whole epic saga, but about the time OPEC was founded, Enrico Mattei, the founder of ENI, the Italian state-owned energy company, confidently stood up to the Seven Sisters, i.e. the most powerful oil companies in the world at the time (Exxon, Shell, BP, Mobil, Chevron, Gulf Oil and Texaco.)
He died in a plane crash, not long after, probably because somebody placed an infernal machine, a timed explosive device, on his plane.
The thinktanks from US/UK and France organised to deindustrialise Iran because its industrialisation went too well.
It was the work of the the Club of Rome International, the Tavistock Institute in Sussex,. England, the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies, the Society of Jesus, and the sociology-anthro
pology complex at the Sorbonne University in Paris
In Cynthias book about religions we learn about weird religions invented to maintain native americans in backwardness. Cynthia explains what academic institutions were involved. For example Anthropology. Thus we recognise the similarity with what was brought in action against Iran. This was from the 18th century and later. So it overlaps with the so called enlightenment philosopher Rousseau who wanted colonials to remain backward. The Aspen Institute that was involved in bringing down the Shah had an attitude similar to Rousseau in praising what was in reality backwardsness.
Like Cynthia points out the Shah let the US/UK/Israel intelligence handle his secret police Savak. In view of the fact that these three actors were in collusion against Iran it was fatal.
Cynthia, having lived through this era and worked throughout the middle east from the mid sixties on and off until the early nineties, this is of great interest to me. excellent.
The sad history of international politics shows a determination to stamp out freedom whenever and wherever it arises. Evil perpetuates evil. “Peaceful slavery” desired over “dangerous freedom.”
Excellent history lesson and a timely reminder. Thank you Ms. Chung. Well done.
Que artículo más fantástico, Cynthia!

Brilliant write up. Thank you.
Wow Cynthia! You uncovered another layer to the Iranian story with the EMS

The Shah was murdered by Brezenski.
That wouldn't surprise at all.
