Wow, to say, "we brought in the Shah" is quite an understatement, is it not?
...so, we had a CIA influenced shadow government as far back as 1953.
1953 Iranian coup d'état - Wikipedia
"The 1953 Iranian coup d'état, known in Iran as the 28 Mordad coup d'état, was the overthrow of the democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh in favour of strengthening the monarchical rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi on 19 August 1953, orchestrated by the United States and the United Kingdom.
It was the first covert action of the United States to overthrow a foreign government during peacetime. Mosaddegh had sought to audit the documents of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC), a British corporation (now part of BP) and to limit the company's control over Iranian oil reserves. Upon the refusal of the AIOC to co-operate with the Iranian government, the parliament (Majlis) voted to nationalize Iran's oil industry and to expel foreign corporate representatives from the country.
"After this vote, Britain instigated a worldwide boycott of Iranian oil to pressure Iran economically. Initially, Britain mobilized its military to seize control of the British-built Abadan oil refinery, then the world's largest, but Prime Minister Clement Attlee opted instead to tighten the economic boycott while using Iranian agents to undermine Mosaddegh's government.
"Judging Mosaddegh to be unreliable and fearing a Communist takeover in Iran, UK prime minister Winston Churchill and the Eisenhower administration decided to overthrow Iran's government, though the predecessor Truman administration had opposed a coup, fearing the precedent that Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) involvement would set.
"British intelligence officials′ conclusions and the UK government's solicitations were instrumental in initiating and planning the coup, despite the fact that the U.S. government in 1952 had been considering unilateral action (without UK support) to assist the Mosaddegh government."

I don't know, was watching some of my favorite Qanons YT vids and one went back to the 1953 Iran leader. Forget his name but the facts surrounding his assassination have been declassified. It was Ike, UK, and BP oil that took him out because he wanted to nationalize the nation's oil. He was pro-west and was pushing for democracy. BP got the oil and Iran got CIA Black Ops installed ever since. It also revealed that Carter and the first Ayatollah talked to each other for months before the Shah was overthrown. Maybe it's all a CIA script. The CIA was also running N. Korea but were removed in Trump's first year.
