minus-squareUnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down2·2 days ago Water has never been cheap in Iran You’re talking out your ass. Industrial run-off in Iran is treated like a nuisance at best. Why on earth do you think a reinstatement of the Shah would change that? Look at Iraq. Look at Syria. Look at Honduras right now. Look at Haiti. Have any of their ecological issues improved after Western regime change went into effect? Getting crucial infrastructure out of the hands of a religious army might actually have positive consequences That’s not what is being proposed. You’re talking about changing military leadership through armed insurrection and outside intervention. You’re talking about proxy rule by Israel. None of this improves the Iranian water reserves. None of it brings in more precipitation.
