Bonus: The 73-Year Road to War — Iran and America from the 1953 CIA Coup to Operation Epic Fury

To understand Operation Epic Fury you have to go back seventy-three years. Back to a CIA officer with a suitcase full of cash in Tehran. Back to the coup that toppled Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosadek in 1953 and handed his oil fields back to the West. Back to the revolution of 1979, the hostage crisis, the Iran-Iraq war, the Beirut bombing, Iran-Contra, September 11th, the axis of evil speech, the secret nuclear facilities at Nuh-tawnz and Arak, Stuxnet, the assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists, the JCPOA, Trump's withdrawal from the nuclear deal, maximum pressure, the shadow war between Iran and Israel, and the moment American intelligence confirmed Iran was two weeks away from a nuclear weapon.

This bonus episode covers the full seventy-three year history of the United States and Iran in a single factual and neutral briefing. No spin. No agenda. Just the history that every listener needs to understand why the bombs fell on February 28th, 2026.

If you have ever asked why Iran and America hate each other, this is the episode for you.
