Andrew Scott Cooper talked about his book based on previously-classified documents revealing how the price of oil drove U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East. He discussed the deal for oil made between the Ford administration and the Saudi government in 1976 in an effort to undercut the power of the Organization of Oil Exporting Countries (OPEC) and the impact it had on the shah's regime in Iran. Mr. Cooper highlighted the comparisons with current economic conditions. He also responded to questions from members of the audience.

Andrew Scott Cooper: 'Shah was a Visionary ahead of his time!'

by Darius Kadivar on

Andrew Scott Cooper truly swims against the tide by offering a totally opposite and Fresh positive outlook on the Shah than the general negative perception on the Pahlavi Era which has gone down in history books since the revolution ...  

 

This is not only welcome but was long due ... 

 

BRAVO !
