Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In this firstever insider account of the American Embassy takeover in 1979, Massoumeh Ebtekar sets out to correct 20 years of misrepresentation by the Western media of what the aims of the Iranian students and the populist revolution they personified were, and have since remained.She also explains, in considerable detail, how one faction of the Shia clerical establishment came to see (with the eager complicity of the international media and its own proWestern political agenda) these students as a vanguard of its own theocratic goals, rather than of the much broader cultural upheaval which had ousted the regime of Shah MohammadReza Pahlevi, installed through a United Statessponsored coup in 1953.In February 2000, a month before U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albrights admission of active CIA involvement in the 1953 coup, Iranians flocked to the polls to elect the Islamic Republics sixth parliament: To date, 70% of the candidates elected have been characterized by the Western media as moderates, among them, like Ebtekar, the students who took over the American Embassy in 1979. These moderates, followers of President Mohammad Khatamihimself a Shia clergymanare now attempting to break the stranglehold the conservative religious faction have on Iranian politics since 1979, and to establish a civil society within an Islamic framework.This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the rapidly proliferating international phenomenon of peoples attempting to preserve their independence and culture from the overwhelming hegemony of the United States in the community of nations, and in how the independent American media continues to play an active role as an instrument of American foreign policy.
