The Soviets were hated too, especially in Eastern Europe and China. HOWEVER, they were a useful counterweight to the US.As someone mentioned upthread, the '53 coup wasn't accomplished in a vacuum; it was part of the complex pavane of counters to the Soviets influence operations around the world and it should be viewed in that context - not as a grab for oil resources.
I find it interesting that we are so inept at international relations, apparently, that all our attempts at influencing power in other nations result in unending hatred for us, while all the Soviet's influence operations have apparently not netted them such widespread hatred. I wonder why that is?
Also the US represented the status quo in much of the third world after WWII, the Soviets offered help in the interests of world revolution. Win-win for the USSR and their proxy states, while it lasted.
