The Downfall

Schism increases at the top of the regime, forces defect
Tehran- July 3, 2010
Under heavy political strokes schism at the top of the regime and defection in its body has reached to a devastating level.
In his meeting on last Monday with the heads of Judiciary Khamenei pointed to the fact and said: “some just talk and don’t act. Some do act but in confronting events, storms, mockeries, taunting and unjust enmities they don’t endure and they stop and some defect after they stop”.
In another event Jafari the head of IRGC expressed his concern about defected forces and called upon its forces to be ready for preservation of the Establishment. Speaking in Mashad in a session called ‘the Great Gathering’ he emphasized in presence of a number of IRGC’s commanders of land forces that their forces continuously leave and estimated the current situation as ‘the era with the most defection’.
It is to be mentioned that the uprising of Iranians has said everything in the slogan of ‘death to the principle of Veleyat-e-Faghih’. The end of the dictatorship is well heard from the Uprising. People clearly say that they don’t want religious fascism, stoning to death, amputation of hands and feet, compulsory veil, compulsory religion and an imposed state.
Khamenei and his Pasdars and IRGC have well received the message.

We must act properly in regard with our duties”.

News on Iran’s economy

Gasoline
Tehran, July 3, 2010
As the gasoline ration decreases from 100 liters per month to 60 liters people become more discontent and the news on sanctions from the west intensifies the issue.
Currently most of the gas stations such as in Saadat Abad, Kashani and Sataarkhan Streets are covered by governmental forces.
The inter-city Taxi drivers are selling their ration of gasoline as free-gasoline in higher prices and make living from that because the ration given to them by the government is very short of what they need and they have to work half the month buying free-gasoline. So instead of doing their job as taxi drivers they are selling their ration of gasoline as free-gasoline.
