Respect

I can´t help admiring him for his optimism on a stage called life in Iran. He deserves my greatest respect.

My best wishes for him (and all others handling these life situations)

IRI is to blame for all of this, and more.

On the demand side, IRI is responsible for creating the miserable conditions that have caused the massive drug use and prostitution in Iran. Also, IRI is responsible for not dealing with the problem and sweeping it under the rug. These brothers are dealing with the situation the best they can; and in doing so they are exposing the ugly side of the Iran that IRI has created. THAT IS WHY THE BROTHERS ARE IN JAIL.

On the supply side, Opium production charts tells you what the normal production levels are; and the exceptions are the year 2001 which is marked by the Taliban, and the years after that which are marked by weak central government of Karzai.

Look at that graph, its more than 240% actually since 2001. If you fail to understand what an increase in 240% means, I cant help you, maybe your kid's math book can. Afghan drug production is the responsibility of the Karzai government and the NATO foremost.

Its easier trafficking condition beacuse the police guarding the frontier is undermanned and under armed, and dont have proper intelligence from the drug rings from inside afghanistan. The boarder is also huge. Easier marked conditions yes, but as the article above says, the increase in production means that other countries are hurting from this as well, but not in such high concentrations as Iran. EU is still the optimal target for export, money talks.

You also type
"Also, No body trusts IRI to support them financially or with intelligence/weapons/funds.

You sound like the guy who sells me my heroin. How much financially or intelligence/weapons/funds do you need? Does 56% do?"

Boro baba to ham with this "Blame it all on the IRI" Bullsh##. When British/French NATO troops are helping to export poison into Iran, its because they are using our people as a strategic game card. The British did the same thing to China centuries ago. Your hate should be more lobbed against these countries than the IRI, even though the system, like I said, has its faults and corruption. But to say that the government line is to sell heroin on the streets of Teheran is bogus.

Giving better flack wests, Intelligence about the drug dealers routes, burning and punishing poppy field farmers who make poison instead of food, and improved police arms to stop criminals (as the commanders of the guards are sking for) is not going to make the IRI legions to stand outside Paris next month you moron. NATO could easily deploy a couple of thousand extra troops on the boarder with Iran Afghanistan, work together, and seize these bastards. Like Mexico and the US are doing. They wont. Know why? They see our people as dogs. We are to export rugs and pistachio, sell black oil and use our oil sales revenue to smoke pot and buy russian arms in case they bomb us into the stone age. Thats their strategic interest.

Ojrat

Interesting, the money promised to the woman in Sigheh is called Ojrat!

1- It is a shame that

1- It is a shame that selfless philanthropists like the Alaei bros are imprisoned rather than be honored and empowered. Unfortunately, this is a text-book-classic situation in a third-world dictatorship and it is not the first time that happens in our troubled country.

2- Perhaps, a solution to narcotics traffic is an "Eastern Wall", an impenetrable 10-m high hi-tech fortification, along the entire Afghanistan and Pakistan border. Although its price could be astronomical, it doesn't cost more than the lives of the border-patrol soldiers or the citizens for generations.

Why are Drs. Alai in Jail?

Is it because of publicizing the issues of addiction and Aids in Iran?

Dear Toofantheoncesogreat

Percent is a relative measure. Production cannot be 0% or 240%, and certainly cannot jump from 0% to 240%, unless you are on opium or heroin.

Also, the lower price indicates a more efficient and easier trafficking condition.

Also, No body trusts IRI to support them financially or with intelligence/weapons/funds.

RE: Bikar

Before the NATO invasion of Afghanistan, opium and Heroin production was near 0%. After the invasion, it jumped to 240%. The resistance warlord fighters fund their weapons like that. Iran has lost 150-172 soldiers trying to cover a huge boarder between Afghanistan and Iran. No one, absoloutly no one, helps Iran financially or with intelligence/weapons/funds to stop this trafficking. The opium and heroin that ends up in Iran are small considering what goes on past to other nations, as a bag of heroin fetches 100 dollars in Teheran, but 10 000 in Europe (Inside the EU). Iran is not only suffering from this, the world is.

Im not saying that corruption does not exist. Each year officers and police chiefs get jailed for the trafficking corruption. Many of them avoid death sentence, most likely because they promise people on higher levels a guarante that they wont witness against them But thats just the tail of the elephant. You want to kill the beast it-self, talk to NATO and the drug lord Karzai in Kabul, or at least, talk NATO into working witht he Iranian border police.

beyond sad........

I am speechless and baffled with what happened to the generations of innocence!
God, Are you listening? Are you watching? enough is enough.....do something now. I demand this of you.
