Auteur: Kurzman, Charles
Editeur: Harvard University Press
A 1978 CIA analysis firmly concluded that the shah of Iran would remain on the throne for the foreseeable future. One hundred days later the shah was overthrown by a popular revolution. The CIA was not alone in its myopia, as Kurzman reveals; Iranians themselves considered a revolution inconceivable until it actually occurred.
