the Irony of this remark is awesome
The Mullahs of Iran are nothing but an organised mob who use force and violence to keep their position of power. Te Iranian government has done nothing for it's people! Mobs walk the streets to dish out beatings or even rapes for what they deem "illegal". Tehran is a village that has overgrown into a city, without any modern sewage system installed, the Shah never got round to it and nor have the current idiots. Although Iran is a huge oil producer they need to import petrol as they have so far failed to build enough refineries to meet the needs of their populace... They in themselves are a mafia! They used the Salman Rushdie affair to solidify their power after losing a war with Iraq and (at the time) faced a growing internal secular movement. They are trying to develop nukes for no other reason than to prolong their despotism.
