Are you seriously implying that the 1953 coup wasn't orchestrated by Western powers? I've never heard anyone seriously argue that it wasn't.
the purported event is separated from the Iranian revolution by several decades (53 to 79)
I think the parent was implying that the '53 coup was what the Western powers wanted, but the '79 revolution destroyed that plan.
You are repeating a standard, oversimplified revisionist history which makes the US singlehandedly responsible for Iran's entire fate for all time, blatantly ignoring any other historical, regional or Iranian factor.
I'm not entirely sure, but I think you are misreading what people are saying here (it isn't exactly clear what they are saying, so I might be wrong too).
I think they are saying that the '79 revolution was an Iranian action, which happened in direct opposition to what the Western powers wanted.
In either case, I agree with you about the '79 revolution - that was completely Iranian doing.
