Letter to the Editor: Will Ireland allow itself be party to a US war with Iran?

After US President Donald Trump walked away from the Iranian nuclear deal, which closed the door on diplomacy, his administration’s pretext of freeing Iranians from authoritarianism is similar in tone to previous US war propaganda in this region.

The CIA now publicly admits that it was behind the notorious 1953 coup against Iran’s democratically elected prime minister, Mohammad Mossadegh, and when the US backed Shah was finally overthrown, it led to our present-day Islamic Republic of Iran.
