\u201cIran signs $1.3 billion deal to double output at South Azadegan oil field,\u201d<\/a> Aresu Eqbal, S&P Global, July 20, 2020.\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cIran awarded a $1.3 billion development plan to more than double oil production at the South Azadegan field, the second oil project signed this month with local companies as US sanctions bar IOC’s from stepping into its energy sector. The contract was awarded to Petropars, and signed with Petroleum Engineering & Development to boost production capacity to 320,000 b\/d from 140,000 b\/d over 30 months, according to the country’s oil ministry. The field is on the border with Iraq. Earlier this month, Iran awarded a $300 million contract to develop the Yaran oil field to another local contractor Persia Oil and Gas Industry Development Co.\u201d\u00a0 That earlier contract was corruption, pure and simple.\u00a0 In short, the National Iranian Oil Company\u2019s contract is with the Supreme Leader through his Persia Oil and Gas Industry Development Company, which belongs to Imam\u2019s Executive Headquarters.<\/p>\n

Tehran Times is controlled by the Regime.\u00a0 Note what they say here, and I quote.\u00a0 \u201cIran has not officially declared whether the incident at the Natanz complex was an accident or an act of sabotage, but the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) said the main cause has been determined and will be announced at an appropriate time. Some reports suggested Tel Aviv\u2019s alleged role, but Israeli officials neither confirmed nor denied the regime\u2019s involvement. Meanwhile, Iranian officials have said much of the speculation linking the incident to Israel is nothing but bluster which pleased Israeli leaders, warning Tel Aviv of serious consequences if it turned out to be true.\u201d\u00a0 So, from this quote we read that the Iranian government KNOWS what caused the explosion at Natanz but still doesn\u2019t know WHO is responsible.\u00a0 As reported earlier on this blog, after so many explosions, if the Ministry of Intelligence can\u2019t figure this out, they will have to drop the name \u201cIntelligence.\u201d\u00a0 See \u201cIran denounces Bloomberg article for promoting violence, terrorism,\u201d<\/a> Tehran Times, July 19, 2020.<\/p>\n

According to information leaked from inside prison, they were deceptively told by prison officials that their death sentences had been quashed by the Supreme Court and they were being taken outside prison to start their retrial process.
