My understanding was that the Shah was in power and Mossadegh essentially shifted the power balance in favor of the Majlis/Parliament, which is what triggered the CIA coup and the return of the Shah to full-on dictatorship. Who actually invited Medea Benjamin to Iran? Her group is very odd. They used to organize some of the anti-Israel-Lobby stuff in DC but they've since stopped doing that (I think over internal disputes with Palestine groups). Their heyday really was during the Iraq invasion when they siphoned support from Democrats. Amith R.
