Iranian General Gholam Reza Jalali, the country's civil defense commander, spoke on Monday, July 2 at a national convention on the protection of the people and accused Israel of "stealing clouds" from # 39; Iran. the clouds that arrive in the Iranian sky are not able to pour the rain. Iran faces a severe drought
ISNA an Iranian news agency close to the government, reported the general's speech: "Climate change in Iran is suspicious" he has said. And again: "The foreign interference is suspected of having played a role in climate change.The scientific centers of the country have conducted a study on this subject and their results confirm this hypothesis". According to ISNA the general explained that "Israel and another country in the region have joint teams working to make sure that the clouds that penetrate the Iranian skies do not can not pour the rain. The general also explicitly spoke of "flying clouds and snow" and quoted "a quadrennial survey" that would show that at more than 2,200 meters of altitude all the mountain areas between l & # 39; Afghanistan and the Mediterranean are covered with snow, with the exception of Iran.
For several months, the drought has been affecting Iran, a country with low annual rainfall, limited water resources and a high rate of water wastage. The excessive consumption of water is not new and lasts for several decades: it is caused by the economic development of the country and also by the increase of the population. The shared view that water is a wealth given by God, and not a rare and precious good, has aggravated the situation. In the country, agriculture is responsible for much of the water consumption (uses 92% of the country's fresh water) and traditional irrigation systems entail a high level of waste. In recent months, government management of the problem has angered farmers and several demonstrations to demand a better supply of drinking water.

The director of the Service National Meteorological Organization, Ahad Vazife, responded to ral Jalali saying, "He probably has articles on this subject that I do not know, but on the basis of meteorological knowledge, it is not possible to a country" flying "snow or clouds ". He also added that if it were possible, "there would be no water police in the United States, because Americans would steal clouds from other countries." A few years ago, California (state where there are often major droughts) created the "Water Police", responsible for ensuring the conservation of water resources of the State . According to Vazife, Iran "suffers from prolonged drought, and it is a global trend", which does not apply only to his country: "Raise problems of this kind ( as did the General, ndr ) not only does not solve any of our problems, but it will prevent us from finding the right solutions.
