I had been thinking, really this just got blown up with digression but i mean it is hot news it was bound to get attention, but I wonder actually what if we take the more serious look at Iran news back to your old topic about the Water Crises and just left this here for I guess the more meta debate of it all? I had thought this actually a while back but since the old water crises topic while prescient and topical it's old and its your topic so I didn't wanna like be that ironic perform thread necromancy while trying to you know eliminate a literal necromantic cult. If you lead the way though as the OP of it. I will follow, praise Jesus.

Thread 'Tehran is out of water'

Tehran' Water Lines Is Gone—Iran Faces EVACUATION, "ZERO DAY" as Water Crisis Hits 10 Million People


14 million people are out of water and this is not a temporary issue. Tehran is suffering from water bankruptcy.

Tehran is sinking at a rate of 35cm a year, or 1 meter every three years.

Permanent compression -- the worst aspect of the disaster. Water was filling the pores of the ground beneath Tehran. As they have pumped all the water out it causes the remaining soil to compact so that even if it does rain there is no room for the water to go and it...

Yes this water shortage issue is very real indeed.
Major crisis with no real solutions.

Indeed, Candace Owens and Alex Jones have taken up residence in many unused cobweb infested brains.
And yes that claim is absurd, without evidence, and little more than conspiracy theory nuttery.

Short answer: No—recent rains do NOT solve Iran’s water crisis.
They help a bit (especially reservoirs), but the crisis is structural and long-term.


Here’s the realistic breakdown:



🌧️ What the recent rains actually do​


Recent rainfall can:


  • Refill some reservoirs and dams (partially)
  • Improve short-term supply for cities like Tehran
  • Reduce immediate panic (rationing, outages)

For example:


  • Reservoir levels may rise from very low levels (e.g., ~10–15%) to something less critical
  • Some reports suggest national reservoir levels have improved compared to last year

👉 So yes—it provides short-term relief



🚫 What the rains do NOT fix​


1. Multi-year drought deficit​


Iran has had years of below-average rainfall:


  • Tehran is in its 6th consecutive drought year
  • Rainfall has been 30–40% below normal in recent periods

➡️ One rainy spell doesn’t erase years of deficit



2. Critically depleted reservoirs​


Before the rains:


  • Some key reservoirs were ~10–15% full
  • Others were even lower (single digits)

Even if they rise:


  • They’re often still far from full capacity

➡️ Think: refilling a nearly empty tank—not fixing the system



3. Groundwater collapse (the biggest issue)​


This is the part most people miss:


  • Iran has massively over-pumped underground water
  • It has lost enormous groundwater reserves over decades

Rainfall:


  • Barely restores deep aquifers (can take years or decades)

➡️ This is the core of the crisis, and rain doesn’t fix it



4. Structural problems (the real driver)​


Even with good rain:


  • Agriculture uses ~80–90% of water
  • Poor management + infrastructure issues persist

➡️ Without reform, the system keeps draining itself



🧠 The correct way to think about it​


A good analogy:


  • Iran’s water system = a bank account deeply in debt
  • Rainfall = a small deposit

It helps temporarily…
but the underlying deficit is still massive



⚖️ Bottom line​


  • ✅ Recent rains: short-term relief, some reservoirs recover
  • ❌Not a solution:
    • Doesn’t fix groundwater depletion
    • Doesn’t reverse years of drought
    • Doesn’t solve mismanagement

The crisis is chronic, not just weather-related

MTG answered Something I wondered about in the first administration and again more recently. I've not heard much explanation from my conservative brothers.
However, the QAnonomous spokesmen like to repeat that everything is under control behind the scenes and the term 10-D Chess.

Any other summeries for the reason swamp people are in positions of influence?

The Lord has His ways and means. Could this be one of them?
I take it that you basically reject the far flung prophetic themes of Zechariah.
But still, there they are for all to consider.

Zec 14:17
And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.

Zec 14:18
And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the LORD will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Zec 14:19
This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

The comparison is purely speculation on my part. I take no heed to anything they say. It's mostly Jew bashing nuttery for the most part from what I can tell.

Jones is married to a Jew. Owens only speaks out against Zionism. That and Alex is full of conspiracies. Owens, Tucker and a few others are saying what needs to be said.
