Much earlier, the shah had brought in numerous capable Israeli water professionals to develop a water system for Iran like exists in Israel. The Israelis were employed from 1960 until the Islamic Revolution in 1979 at which time they were driven out.
Since the Revolution, the clerics stopped water infrastructure planning and rather focused attention and spent resources on financing terrorists to destroy Israel and to develop nuclear capability.

“The Greatest Threat Facing Iran: Running Out of Water” and its phony religion. Islam unfortunately takes a toll on everyone, you cannot hide evil.

Canada is going to be very crowded.

Reflecting back 10 years. This is an amazingly accurate description of the lead up to the water collapse in Iran today.
