The Whitlam Dismissal: a CIA and Royal Coup?

Gough Whitlam holds the record of being the only Australian Prime Minister fired from office and in this video Mr. Mitchell walks you through why. As one of the more radical policy reformers Australia has seen, Whitlam did much to alienate the support of the CIA, MI6 and even the royal family. Mr. Mitchell explains what the CIA and royal family then did to get John Kerr to oust Australia's very own prime minister.

Throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, the United States and her allies have constantly been at war or in opposition to other regimes. In this series, Mr. Mitchell looks at what these regimes were all about. What led to their rise? Why did/does the West oppose them? What makes them an "enemy" of the west?
