  • found a few familiar resources in iran that the western world and its allies would love to gain full control of.

    Oil Due to the vast quantities of crude oil reserves within Iran, the nation is considered an energy superpower. According to official records from the Iranian government, in 2006, the crude oil reserves in the nation were estimated to be 132.5 billion barrels. At the time, Iran's reserves were estimated to be 15% of the total reserves of all the members of the organization of petroleum exporting countries. In comparison to the rest of the world, Iran's 2006 oil reserves were approximately 11.4% of the global reserves. After the discovery of oil reserves around the town of Bushehr, the oil reserves in Iran increased by roughly 32%. According to the International Monetary Fund, the monetary value of Iran's oil reserves was estimated to be $10 trillion. The Iranian government entered into several agreements with oil companies from a variety of nations such as the United Kingdom, Russia, the Netherlands, and Spain to develop the oil reserves. Several oil refineries are situated within Iran's boundaries with the most prominent being Abadan, Esfahan, and Bandar-e Abbas. The main method of transporting Iranian petroleum is through the pipeline. According to a study carried out in 2004, pipelines in Iran transported roughly 69% of the refined petroleum products.

    Natural Gas Iran also has massive reserves of natural gas that according to official government records are estimated to be 1,201 trillion cubic feet. Iran's reserves are some of the largest in the world as they account for close to 18% of the world's total. The only nation with larger gas reserves than Iran is Russia. In 2011, the Iranian petroleum minister released a report indicating that Iran's reserves of natural gas had increased significantly due to the discovery of gas reserves within the Caspian Sea. The Caspian reserves were estimated to be 50 trillion cubic feet. Iran is currently exploiting a limited amount of its natural gas reserves, and on average it exploits 5.5 trillion cubic feet annually. The Iranian government has planned to invest huge sums of money in improving the gas industry. The government has planned to set aside $15 billion every year to increase the annual natural gas production. The Iranian government is planning to take advantage of the increase in the demand for natural gas all over the world. Estimates indicate that over 20 years the global demand for natural gas would increase by either 2% or 3%. Some of the main markets for Iranian natural gas include China and india

  • nytimes isnt necessarily a trusted source for unbiased information about china, or americas dealings. that aside, i wish i could read that article without them demanding or selling my information. so can you post a breakdown for us paranoids?

  • the mafia used to be good friends with old school unions back in the day. they would help them create "forever projects" like subway systems that went nowhere, or roads that went nowhere, sewers and drainage systems that werent necessary. mainly to get money from government contracts that would keep everyone paid. usually by bribing or threatening officials to sign off on the contracts.

    this is "forever project" for elon.

    pointless. as satellites can be easily hacked by "bad actors" as china and russia have proven already, and with the advances in AI automated systems advancing every day, or even them succumbing to "poisoning" with misleading data. this will be, much like the wall, full of fucking holes. this is just another way for them to drain more money out of americans, while attempting to scare canada into giving up "the cookies" and enriching those contracted to build these projects. which will be of course, subpar, abd wont work as advertised, if it ever actually gets off the ground.

    it is possible for ANYONE to mess with a satellite, with the right know how and equipment. you dont have to be a world super power to do it. russia and china have demonstrated that they can already target and deactivate satellites. i literally watched a guy on youtube demonstrate how to do it with scrapped dishes from ebay and DIY arrays. fucking anonymous has done it several times to russia already.

    long story short. its fucking stupid and it will likely cost as much as they want it to. based on a more realistic metric than the one they provided, somewhere just shy of 1 trillion dollars. 850 + or - billion. i would not be surprised if somewhere down the line they would find the need to "upgrade the existing system" and give even more tax payer money to billionaires and contractors for more of these forever projects.

    its a big fucking expensive ass show.

    and if anything it might also be possible to have those satellites turned AGAINST the US, to block their own nukes, while the enemies hit their now unguarded targets.
