We begin tonight’s edition of A Window to the Fatherland with Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh reading one of his poems from the book of his collected works.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
In tonight’s edition of A Window to the Fatherland we will be discussing the numerous environmental disasters of Iran with our special guest Dr. Hossein Bor, but before that, we will watch a short film about how not that many years ago the water supply system to Iranian cities worked so efficiently.
We will follow the program with a look at the water shortage problem across Iran and the drying up of the country’s lakes and creeks, as an official in the Sistan and Baluchestan provincial government has confessed that the water reserves in the area can only provide for five more months of the local population’s needs.
Dr. Hossein Bor:
Millions of years of rainfall had created several major lakes in Iran as water resources, water lands and natural environments for a colorful variety of wildlife but over the last forty years of the rule of the Islamic republic all have been destroyed and evaporated.
This devastation is the result of the rule of an ignorant and corrupt regime in our country whose priorities have nothing to do with the wellbeing of the Iranian people.
Once a upon a time Iran was the main exporter of rice and cereals to Asian continent but nowadays we are the main importer of these basic foodstuff from Asian countries.
The Sistan and Baluchestan Province of Iran has now turned into a complete desert.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
Can we think of any other country in the world that is facing similar dire conditions as Iran is facing?
Dr. Hossein Bor:
No other country in the world has the same kind of environmental problems that our country is facing today. Even India, with 15 times more population than that of Iran does not have these environmental problems. One of my students told me that last year more than 15 million trees were planted in India to support the expansion of green areas. But in Iran at the same time poachers cut down millions of trees illegally and the government just looked on.
The late Dr. Shapour Bakhtiar who was murdered by the agents of this regime was right when he said that the main mission of the Islamic republic was to destroy our country and annihilate it.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
Cyrus the Great was right to pray to God to keep Iran free of drought and deception. Watching this video clip in which this ignorant mullah talks about his reactionary interpretation of the Koran proves that Cyrus the Great’s worst dream has now come true for Iran and the Iranians.
Dr. Hossein Bor:
The regime’s pretext for all its nefarious and destructive actions is that it is fighting for the Palestinian cause.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
The young Baluchi Iranians are very clever and make good use of the social media to express their feelings and demands.
Dr. Hossein Bor:
For the first time in our history the social media have helped our people put forward their demands without the barriers that central governments put in their way.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
But there is this quarrel among the regime’s factions about how to control the social media and Khamenei has personally ordered the banning of Telegram app. The division among the regime’s factions on so many social and political issues is unbelievable.
If we had a powerful opposition force in place they could unite all Iranian ethnic groups into one nation and change the current situation in Iran.
Dr. Hossein Bor:
Ethnic Iranians make up 70 percent of our population. They have never left the scene of opposition to this regime over the last forty years and like the rest of the Iranian population they have concluded that the path to a free, democratic and prosperous country for all of us goes through the overthrow of the current corrupt and tyrannical regime of the Islamic republic.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
