Iran Offers to Send Emergency Aid Crew to New York After Hurricane Sandy

In the wake of the destruction caused by hurricane Sandy the people of Iran are reaching out in a variety of ways, by offering help and emergency aid relief.

Even the Red Crescent Organization of Iran has offered to send an emergency response team to help with the rescue and clean up effort.

Mahmud Mozaffar, the leader of the Red Crescent Organization told the Fars News Agency that:

“We are ready to help the flood-stricken people of America. Given its preparedness and ample experience in rescuing storms and floods victims, Iran’s Red Crescent can provide relief assistance for those affected in New York.

If American authorities agree, we can send our rescuers with equipment and tools to American cities in the shortest period of time.”

It is very possible that American authorities will not accept this offer because the Red Crescent Organization is known to have deep connections with the Iranian government.

Another organization close with the Iranian government made a similar request a few years ago in offering to help clean up the Deep Horizon BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, this offer was quickly turned down by the US government.

Iran is a much more complicated situation than the half dozen other countries that have already been invaded in this conquest, it’s far more delicate.

Iran’s population and military capabilities far surpass that of Iraq and Afghanistan, it is one of the most powerful countries in the Middle East and has been for a very long time.

Despite their immense power and influence in the region they have not waged a foreign conflict in over a century, and they don’t pose much of a threat today either.

However, they are still being demonized because they don’t comply with Anglo-American business interests like the extremely brutal and fascist dictatorship in Saudi Arabia does.

That is not to say that the government of Iran is totally harmless, all governments are inherently criminal and corrupt because they operate on a basis of force, fraud and coercion. However, it does mean that at least historically the aggression of the Iranian government has been focused inside its own borders.

All of that aside, this is still a commendable offer of peace on the part of this government connected group in Iran, and believe it or not, this is an offer which reflects the sentiments of the average Iranian person.
