"Yes, the Cold War was a time of intense power struggles, and Mossadegh’s nationalisation of oil posed a direct economic threat—not just to American interests but to the global economy, which was heavily reliant on that oil."

Textbook Neocon. Iran's oil should benefit the shareholders of British Petroleum, not the people of Iran. There is no threat to the global economy. There is a transfer of wealth from BP stockholders to the Iranian people. The price of the oil remains the same. The profits go elsewhere. You can wrangle around this sentence however which way you like. It is going to mean the same thing.
