> If America had intervened during the revolution

Well they did intervene during the 1952 revolution. The secular democratic government wasn't very convenient so they basically undid the revolution and reinstalled the Shah in power. Then the second time the Shah was overthrown, it was done by Islamists, not by the secular elected parliament.



Third time's the charm, just one more revolution and we'll have it all sorted out, juuuuuust one more /s
