Enjoy!
These fake disgusting fat-arse Mullahs are in it for the money. Via their extended families, they own vast parts of the Iranian oil and gas sector and other vital sectors. So Mr Mullah might live modestly as a cover for his more secular family being ultra-wealthy/
Via fake “foundations” set up for their extended families.
These fake disgusting fat-arse Mullahs are in it for the money. I thought yoou were going to discuss the Biden family.
No, they’re just f***ing stupid.
