Oddly, it changed into the\ndevastating floods, exacted the heavy price of the people\u2019s lives and\nbelongings, which was because of three reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly; deforestation and eliminating the\nvegetation, particularly in Golestan Province. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mahmood Darvish, an environment expert, said: \u201cMore\nthan two decades ago, the Forest Research Institute said that cutting wood in\nforests must be banned. But very powerful forces objected, so this (the\nnational flood disaster) happened\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly;\nconstruction non-standard and unnecessary dams, many of them were cracked or\ncollapsed during the recent rains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On\nthe occasion of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=V5Sx2KCLIRs\">World\nWater Day, Brian Hooke<\/a>, the U.S. Special Representative\nfor Iran, said: \u201cToday, the Ayatollah\u2019s regime has built around 600 dams. And\nthese dams are not based on sound environmental policy, and they weren\u2019t built\nto help the Iranian people. They were built so that Iranian regime officials\ncould line their pockets with more money from lucrative construction projects.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"A World Water Day Statement to Iran\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/V5Sx2KCLIRs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Thirdly; Irregular construction on the riverbeds and\nriparian areas. In this regard, Jafarzadeh, the head of the regime\u2019s Crisis\nManagement Organization, admitted:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat\nhappened in Shiraz (the National Flood disaster) was due to blocking one of the\ncity\u2019s oldest floodway.\u00a0 \u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although\nplundering Iran\u2019s natural resources by the regime\u2019s agents led to the national\nflood, and brought more plight for the Iranian people, but the regime will face\nwith the crises in the aftermath of the floods. As a matter of fact, because\nthe socio-economic consequences of the national flood disaster concern the\nregime\u2019s official greatly, they are making an all-out effort to conceal the\ntruth about the dimensions of the flood\u2019s damages.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In\nthis regard, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Maryam_Rajavi\/status\/1113460094279327745\">pointed out<\/a>: \u201cThe clerical regime continues to hide the\nactual number of casualties and the scale of damages.

The fear of this demand is mirrored in the stances of the regime\u2019s rival faction who accuse each other of negligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mohammad Nourizad, a former reporter from the\nstate-run Kayhan Daily said in a video published online said that \u201cOne of the\nreasons behind the severe flooding of Gorgan River was a dam built by the IRGC\nthat obstructed the water. The other reason was because the gates of Vashmgir\nDam were not open and were under 10 meters of mud and had not been dredged.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thirdly; because of the corruption and\nmisgoverning, the dire economic condition crisis has been a long overdue crisis\nfor the regime. Destruction of thousands of homes, villages, farms, workplaces,\nfactories as a result of the devastating flood, has made the economic crisis\nmore acute for the regime.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fourthly; the crisis of spreading lethal diseases\nbecause of the destruction of infrastructures and lack of sanitary\nfacilities.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fifthly;\njoining a massive number of flood-hit and homeless people to the jobless army\nwhich will cause more social protests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, the regime is unable to solve the most\nbasic needs of the society, because of its oppressive, plunderer, and\nwarmongering nature. This regime neither intends nor can do something for the\nflood-hit people. The people blame the regime and particularly the IRGC, not\nnature, for massive damages and casualties. The treacherous and corrupt policies\nof the regime incite the public wrath which will push the regime to the brink\nof overthrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Mohammad\nPakpour, commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) ground forces\nacknowledged the people\u2019s anger after he visited the flood-ravaged town of Poldokhtar\nin Lorestan province. While he was bombarded by the anger and complaints of the\npeople during his visit, he admitted that no official dares to come to\nPoldokhtar out of fear of facing the people\u2019s wrath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe problems in Poldokhtar are huge and there is\nno management control\u2026 No official dares to visit Poldokhtar,\u201d he told Entekhab\nand Tabnak, two state-run websites on April <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The regime\u2019s officials are continuously\nwarning each other about the explosion of anger of the people, which attests\nthe readiness of the society to get rid of this regime that has only a 40-year\nrecord of failure, destruction, and repression.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran; national flood disaster By Ali Latiti Nowadays, lots of news about Iran\u2019s flood disaster is aired.
