The Shah only got the authority he did because Eisenhower and Churchill wanted to remove a democratically elected socialist government that was going to use Iran's resources to benefit Iran. Basically, Mossadegh was shoved from power by the West because he put the interests of Iranians ahead of Western interests, and the West simply couldn't have that. It was that same dubious logic that led to US interventionism all over the world for much of the Cold War.
