November
2008 - Bandar Abbas, Iran - It
is without a doubt another huge environmental disaster for Iran and Iranian
people. Persian
Gulf, a key waterway for region's oil exports is heavily
contaminated. Many
oil spills in recent years, industrial wastes and chemicals that are regularly being dumped
in the waterway or
at its shores are rapidly poisoning and contaminating the entire Persian Gulf.
Oil-related activities, regular sewage release,
heavy shipping navigation, the presence of military fleets and
submarines -- and that pollution is killing or poisoning wildlife,
including fish presumably destined for human consumption with adverse
consequences on human health and livelihood. Many
of local populations of corals and fishes have been destroyed in recent years.
Persian Gulf is 47 times more polluted than what is described as
the "standard level."
As
a result of negligence by corrupt Mullah's regime, the contaminated waterway has
caused catastrophic and adverse environmental impact with major consequences
for Iran and Iranian people. Vital resources including environmental
sensitive areas along the Persian Gulf shores have been destroyed.
During
the Persian Gulf War, Saddam Hussein deliberately released over 500 million
gallons of crude oil into the Persian Gulf from tankers 10 mi off Kuwait.
Spill had little military significance but caused a major environmental
disaster in the area. On Feb. 2007, Norooz oil field platform spilled 80
million gallons of oil in Persian Gulf. On July 15, 2008 oil sludge containing
oil byproducts seeped out of damaged containers. A month
later 79 dolphins washed ashore near the smaller port of Jask. High
levels of pollution and an oil spill are being blamed for the recent deaths of
dolphins and whales off Iran's Hormozegan Province, on the Persian Gulf.
Since
the rise of theocratic-totalitarian
regime
to power in 1979, the anti-Iranian Islamic Tazi Arab regime is systematically
destroying Iran and its resources. As
the result, many environmentally sensitive areas and bodies of water along
with historical and archaeological sites have been devastated. In general, the
occupying Islamic Tazi Arab regime has been trying to destroy Iranian way of
life and all Iran's resources at any cost.
True
Iranians must no longer remain silent
It is time to Unite and
Free IRAN
14 Centuries of occupation and
destruction by Islamic Tazi Mullahs must come to end this year!
It
is time for IRANIANS to be True IRANIAN
