| Baha'i NDF in Iran |
Let's look at facts. Currently the entire building supply industry in the capital city of Tehran is owned and controlled by Baha'i businesses and individuals. After arms manufacturing and oil, the building industry anywhere is at the top of the chain of industries in a capitalist economy. Baha'is control the cement industry in Tehran, both manufacturing and supply. They control the manufacture and distribution of plaster. They control the heavy equipment industry, but distribution only since cranes and other heavy equipment are usually manufactured overseas. Steel: manufacture, formation/alteration and distribution. Stones. Tile. You name it and they are there. They also do all the project management for assorted developments and hire only their own people. The money changing hands here is obnoxiously high, so you work out the math, and there are also allegations that all of the major loan sharks in Tehran, Isfahan, Shiraz and Tabriz are Baha'is. Beyond that, the optometry and eyeglass industry in Iran is widely known to be controlled by the Baha'is.
Additionally, the Iranian black market during most of the sanctions period until 2016 was widely rumored to have heavy Baha'i involvement, and because of a substantial number of wealthy Baha'is being in the Gulf who are also known for this sort of thing over there, this lends squeaky clean credibility to the allegations.
Several public individuals, as well as an assortment of Iranian media outlets, have for years claimed that the Baha'is run the biggest money laundering outfit throughout the region, and on it goes.
The Islamic Republic of Iran lost its revolutionary way somewhere around the presidency of Hashemi Rafsanjani. For those fans of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, they should also understand that despite the image their hero was also corrupt to the bone, plus it has long been rumored that Ahmadinejad's father was a Sangsari Baha'i who had converted to Islam which makes Ahmadi himself a first generation Muslim with a Baha'i background.
This rabbit hole goes deep and those who have either recently been to Iran or live there know that Baha'i persecution is a myth. It is actually the other way around. So ask yourself, how is it possible for a community to be persecuted when this community controls a substantial (and dare one say, central) part of the economy? It is impossible because Iran is not Nazi Germany nor are the Baha'is the Jews of 1930s Europe. The Baha'is are an intrinsic part of the economic mafia and financial ruling class of Iran so all of these bogus persecution claims are presently nothing more than a political fight against Iran's political class with the Baha'is clawing more and more power away from the state and this political class by using fake human rights violations claims as one of the weapons. This is identically the same thing that happened under the Pahlavi regime from 1953-1979 that eventually saw that regime collapse in a popular uprising and Revolution. Exactly the same thing is happening again, and this time with much higher stakes because Iran may implode into a Syria-style civil war.
Look, irrefutable evidence of what I say is in the fact that the system in Iran released all seven members of the Yaran after having found them guilty with irrefutable evidence of corruption, espionage and treason against the state. This, in itself, was an unequivocal admission of defeat by the judiciary and political class of the Islamic Republic of Iran under pressure from both within and without. Yet others continue to linger in IR prisons for far, far, far less. So ask yourselves, who has that kind of power in Iran other than an entrenched elite? And when you answer this question in the only way it can be answered, you will realize that the Baha'i persecution claims of today are 100%, unequivocal bunkum!
