Terrible

This is terrible that in some countries poverty has reached such a huge number that many go into a life of crime to survive , and so the drugs and alcohol machine works , keeping alcohol rehab for women centers full .

Well

Well they way those smugglers look I do not think they are making much money and the small amount they are making they should invest in a alcohol rehab program for themselves.

These men are my heros.

These men are my heros. They risk their lives everyday and as a result, so many tables have joy and laughter.

I hope they are repaid for their work some day. It's not fair that they are so poor. They should rule the world.

You are absolutely correct.  Taking over the operations of the IKIA (airport) was a huge leap for Sepah's black market activities, from importing alcohol to exporting subsidized gasoline and lord knows what else.

take it easy, the good old

take it easy, the good old "aragh sagee" in Majidieh cost 1000 toman per liter. believe me it is cheaper and better and more healthy than this fake junk that is sold in the streets of Tehran or border towns! of course good stuff is more expensive in Tehran then any other country in the world! Nonetheless thanks for the clip, interesting, and which reminded me of my own journey out of Iran back in early 80's ...

we knew it was going on and this documentary shows exactly how it goes on. the documentary is reminiscent of the movie "a time for drunken horses."
