Surely, the Iranian people can't wait to get someone from that family back in power. :-p 1953 Iranian coup d'état - Wikipedia https://share.google/nmMIp7ZmOcSpV0aqT "Mosaddegh was arrested, tried and convicted of treason by the Shah's military court. On 21 December 1953, he was sentenced to three years in jail, then placed under house arrest for the remainder of his life. Other Mosaddegh supporters were imprisoned, and several received the death penalty."
