Gasoline Shortage in Iran Threatens Regime
(Pajamas Media) Ryan Mauro - The Iranian regime is facing a gasoline shortage. On July 23, there were clashes in Tehran when those waiting in a long line at Roosevelt gas station greeted the security forces by shouting "Death to dictatorship." On July 18, citizens booed security forces at a station on Mosadegh Street in Tehran, sparking clashes. Other gas stations are rationing their supply because of the shortage, resulting in very long lines that turn into public expressions of dissatisfaction. Some aren't even operating. Some workers at stations are complaining that they are receiving tainted gasoline. And this is all happening while there are intermittent electrical shortages in Tehran.
