Iran's Oil Power

As the US gets bogged down in Iraq, Iran's influence in the region is on the rise, due its vast energy reserves. But Iran's petroleum industry is showing signs of distress. The Iranian government has begun to ration gasoline, with drivers limited to 120 litres a month. This sparked angry reactions in Tehran, where fuel has always been cheap and plentiful.

These oil reserves don't belong to Iran only because is located on Iranian soil. The oil does not belong to the USA and UK as well. Oil is only a natural resource waiting to be exploited by the stronger and able to do that. Nobody has a "supreme natural right" over oil. The right must to be purchased.

@H3LM13002 The west would have fucked us up no matter what. And after WW2 we would have been a target no matter what as well, and without oil we could have looked like Afghanistan.

[H3LM13002]

If we didn't have oil, we were much much much better off.

1st west wouldn't have fucked up the country in the past.

2nd the current fucks in power wouldn't have money to pay for their disgusting militia and maintain their power
