Faisal was killed on the day of the revolution but it appears that the revolutionaries only intended that he should be exiled; one of the officers on the scene had a rush of blood to the head and opened fire on the royal party after they had walked out of the palace. Nuri al-Said was killed the day after trying to escape. This events are detailed in [[Hanna Batatu]]'s book on Iraq. I'll check the precise details and refine the current version.

:I think the wording used the the article, that Faisal was "executed", ought to be changed. Execution requires judicial or at least quasi-legal authority. He was murdered by revolutionaries. [[User:Ncox001|Ncox001]] ([[User talk:Ncox001|talk]]) 23:27, 28 January 2024 (UTC) |

The Kashmir issue was solved in 1958, sadly Ayub Khan took over and betrayed the Pakistani people.
The real story behind Iraq, Iran ,Turkey and Pakistan: A meeting of the Baghdad Pact, July 1958 King Faisal II killed and assasinated by CIA. Shah of Iran 1973 revolution thanks to CIA. Iskander Mirza exiled 1958 by CIA. Adnan Menders Turkish PM false charges by CIA.
Had these countries joined an alliance US wouldnt be the superpower anymore.
True stories being told by great grand son of Iskander Mirza,
Humayun Mirza jr.

Support for revolution
There is no evidence that the revolution enjoyed widespread support. It may or may not have done so. However a military coup is by definition undemocratic and without the consent of the people. Therefore I do not see why the statement that the monarchy "was abolished by revolution without popular consent" requires a citation.101.98.140.129 (talk) 23:24, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
