But Tehran did the opposite—sealed the alluvial fans in asphalt and concrete, flushed stormwater away as “waste,” and never sustained a real managed aquifer recharge program.
Taps run dry.
Inshallah.
It’s always a tough choice for Iranian leadership: build water infrastructure, or kill Jews? Seems like killing Jews has always been more important. And here we are.
Sounds like a job for climate change.
Funny, because true!
I don’t think the Mahdi is going to come pull their bacon out of the fire
I can’t imagine how the regime avoids implosion. Greater Teheran has about 15 million people. Every single business will close. When the people evacuate, where will they go? The whole country is in drought. Their oil revenues are so vast maybe they can avoid famine by devoting every penny to relief, but how will they transport the vast amounts of water, and where will they get it from? It’s my understanding the Caspian Sea isn’t too brackish, but it’s impossible to get the desalinization infrastructure built and running in time.
We’re looking at your proverbial “humanitarian crisis” of epic proportions. Hell, I’d be in favor of lifting sanctions on their oil because they’re going to need every dime they can lay their hands on.
We can hope, in the midst of this disaster, the people will thank the mullahs for spending all their money on weapons and killing by hanging them from lampposts as the population flees the capital
And no irrigation between 10 AM and 7 PM.

I agree with your post.
Imagine what could have been made with the money used for certrifuges and underground mountain facilities...
Oh, inconvenient truth...
Have no fear my friends. Watch as the U.N. conducts the largest relief effort since the Berlin Airlift. Iran can not be allowed to fail. Who will kill the Jews then?
Talk to Greta, she's got a flotilla.
Or they could maybe use their own ships, if they unload all the weapons bound for Gaza...
I don’t care. One might believe there is a bit of judgement visiting the 8.9 million inhabitants who put up with those in charge.
Allah akbar!
They can ask China and Russia for help.
They hate us, remember?
You know who is really good at desalinization and could help?
Hee hee ….
Israel.
How do they fight fires? With fire? Bdump bah!
Sounds not as bad as California.
Nah. It’s true CA needs a lot more water storage but, here at the end of the dry season, the largest reservoirs in the northern half of the state are collectively holding about 10 Million acre feet. Rule of thumb is that one acre foot is need for every four in the population, so that enough water for the state’s 40 million population. There’s widespread groundwater recharge program in place and wastewater recycling for irrigation is the norm in new developments. If we have a drought this winter we’re in trouble, but if our situation is akin to burning your finger with a match, Iran’s is akin to your whole neighborhood burning to the ground. There’s just no comparison between the two

All their money is tied up in burqa enforcement and Jew killin’.
