Icon23 The West is stealing Iran's rain

Well, so says Ahmadinejad, Prez of Iran, and internationally renowned clown.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...rans-rain.html

Apparently the West is using high-tech gizmos to steal rain from clouds over Iran and causing said rain to fall on their own countries.

That guy is a nut job. It's a damn shame the green revolution didn't push him out of power a couple of years back.

If the nut bar wants rain all he needs to do is rearrange the spelling of Iran

If they want their water back, they should build better gizmos. Or at least level up their sorcerers.

He is a clown, but it is true that countries have done this in the past. It's called cloud seeding and it forces clouds to release their precipitation before they pass over. Israel has done this in the past to help make the desert green, much to the dismay of some of their neighbours. Beijing also did it before the Olympics to prevent rain during the events.

Stealing implies someone else gets it. I doubt The West is seeding clouds to aid Afghanistan, Pakistan or Armenia, let alone anything considered "Western."

What does ol' Ahmy think of climate change? It's probably an Illuminati 9/11 conspiracy that begins and ends with Cold War Star Wars programs.

Lol, you should make that into a thread. This totally sounds like something from the Onion:

With a little persuasion I'm sure that someone would be willing to rain his house with heavy artillery.

I thought that technique hadn't really been perfected yet and was hit and miss at best?

They can have their rain back, they can also have our winter season as well. Let it be summer all year round for us.
