The Poor in Iran

"We are staying here," said a protester who gave his name as Abu Rish. "We have money and support from Iran and Syria and we can go on like this for another 50 years."

Fact is that the oil fund is being siphoned, and used more in Lebanon than on the poor secular Iranians. The poor in Iran abstained en-masse from the recent Seyyed selection process in Iran.

The rest of Iran barely survive, and are bombarded by propaganda everyday; on how the Seyyeds are winning the Nuclear argument for secular Iranians on the world scene. It creates a false sense of success, when less and less funding is available, and the economic depression worsens.

Quo Bene? Peak Oil advocates, and all those corporations making use of the cheap oil contracts, that the Chinese have established for the world corporations in China with all those prisoners.
