“Some defenders of the CIA’s Iranian coup claim that it was justified because Mossadegh’s government was nationalizing US and British oil companies in Iran. If that action is defensible, why shouldn’t the Iranian government stage a coup to retaliate for the US government’s seizure of an Iranian-owned office building near Rockefeller Center? The seizure is being carried out under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which supposedly gives the government authority to confiscate terrorism-related assets. When foreign governments confiscate assets, Washington calls it terrorism. When Washington does the same, it’s called ‘American exceptionalism.'”
