Scott Horton: CIA Handed Iran to Khomeini — Inside the U.S. Role in the 1979 Iranian Revolution
January 15, 2026
This didn’t just happen.
It was SET UP.
Scott Horton says the CIA with help from the U.S. and France cleared the path for Khomeini in 1979, handing Iran over and lighting a fire that’s still burning today.
History isn’t messy by accident.
It’s messy by design.
Watch. Share. And ask yourself who really writes the revolutions.

English Script:
Scott Horton: …did find footage of the Ayatollah on the plane on the way back to Iran from Paris, France.
Tucker Carlson: Oh, yeah.
Scott Horton: And he’s being interviewed by Peter Jennings, who’s asking him, “So, how do you feel about your triumphant return to Iran right now?” And this kind of thing. Well, I remember even as a kid wondering, “But aren’t the French our friends? And why would they send the Ayatollah back to Iran to inherit this deadly anti-American revolution if that wasn’t what America wanted?” But the answer is that is what America wanted. CIA and the State Department had advised Jimmy Carter that we know this guy Khomeini. He’s not so bad. He was part of a Shiite group that we helped to agitate against Muhammad Mosaddegh back in 1953. We can work with him. And a State Department guy named William Sullivan, I believe he was the ambassador, uh William Sullivan compared him to Mahatma Gandhi.
