Turkey seizes $18.5 Billion of Iranian Money
AntiMullah & Sources Inside Iran ^

Posted on 08/02/2009 5:06:46 PM PDT by FARS

While the Western & Official Islamic Iranian Media ignores the story, a Turkish lawyer has claimed that his Iranian client, Esmail Safarian-Nasab, has transferred an $18.5-billion treasure from Iran to Turkey through "courier services" - reportedly two truckloads as opposed to the original story of just one.

The TWO container-TRUCK loads of "courier services" of US dollars and gold bullion was delivered to Ankara Customs last month. (Watch video below for visuals only unless you speak Turkish) but efforts have been made by Turkey (even denying any money arrived) and some Mullah friendly Press, to confuse/misdirect it with a smallish, intercepted consignment of money and arms sent via Turkey to fund and supply Hezbollah back in October 2008.

Interesting that a Turkish lawyer is trying to get it back for his "apparent" one person client, though "it never arrived, never happened"! How did this man acquire this fortune? Or is it Mullah Khamenei and his gang's stolen money being sent to safe keeping ?

This has hit the Iranian blogosphere but not MainStream Media.

I believe the Mullahs are running scared as the slogans against them of "down with the Republic of Islam , we want a Republic of Iran" (Farsi wording structure) and instead of "Death to America" even when prompted by rabble rousers, the respnse is now "Death to Russia" and "Death to China". MOstly because the "thinking", more educated populace realizes that Russia and China have been promoting and protecting the blood-shedding Mullahs.

The budget equivalent of a whole country arrived in Turkey from Iran and has been confiscated. Fleeing Mullah money?

I bet you’re right! Iran might not be the safest place right now for the Mullah’s to try to hoard their ill gotten loot.

I saw the headline, and for a second I thought it was Obama seizing the money. But I don't think he would do that to his Muslim friends.

Guess the Mullahs aren't rolling on the floor laughing about that, lol.

"down with the Republic of Islam , we want a Republic of Iran" (Farsi wording structure)

I am guessing this is a rhyming chant. If so, I'd be curious to know how this would be both written (in Parsi) and pronounced.

Well, this is interesting.

Fleeing Mullahs, indeed.

You can run, but you can’t hide your money anywhere.

Predictable. The slimy Mullahs are fully capable of doing that. They’ll set their country up for nuke destruction but will leave as soon as the schitt hits the fan.
