Mayor Galibaf is getting a lot of credit for such developments, achieved under the weight of sanctions.

Actually by any world standard this is a very impressive project, while in deadbeat US, bridges are falling apart of I-5 near Seattle. I just drove over the decrepit US roads and rotting bridges and America is indeed headed towards third world standards as Zionist fanned wars and police state have literally bankrupted it. Iran even by first-world standards has a first rate and brand new infrastructure despite the "sanctions". All kudos to Qalibaf and industrious Iranians.

Mr. Qalibaf will be capable to create proper plan for the economical resistance strategy and its implementation.
He has stated that that plan will be ready and implementet during the next two years.

It looks like that the Islamic Republic will have one of the most innovative economical governments in its history.

Some say that there are "crippling" sanctions, but if the oil prices would drop to $60 per barrel in the future, it is the best time to exercise and plan a new strategy for that event using current situation as a substitute example.

I think that Mr. Qalibaf is a sure choice for designing of the new economical architecture for the country in the next government of the Islamic Republic.

Indeed, the US is a Third World country and the Islamic Republic is a First World Country, which is why the US is ranked Number 3 in Human Development Index (HDI), and the super-duper Islamic Republic is ranked Number 76.

good for you, A-F.

I'm sure that you're one of the folks who have been told, by Khamanei's minions, who it has been decided to be the winner of the election.

Did they tell what the margin of victory will be announced to have been?

Deadbeat US is ranked 39th or worse little chappy!

"Deadbeat" US is ranked Number 3 in Human Development Index (HDI) in 2013, behind those other "deadbeat" nations, Norway and Australia. The super-duper IRI is ranked Number 76. What is it with West-residing IRI Groupies anyway? Why are they such pathological liars (not to mention hypocrites for living in the West)?

No, the US is ranked third

‌Bragging about home made statistics! Have you ever been to the south of the US? This is not to say that Iran is a first world country, of course it isn't. It is still a third world developing one. Yet, with all sanctions imposed it is flourishing. "ta koor shavad har aanke natvaanad deed." :D

Naturally, a country ranked Number 76 in Human Development Index is "flourishing", and one ranked Number 3 is "deadbeat", bankrupt, collapsing, rotting, etc, etc. Yes, I have been to the US South, and yes, the US has many, many social problems (as if there isn't much, much worse poverty and other social problems in the IRI). The day one of our West-residing IRI Groupies leave their homes in the US, Canada, Western Europe, Australia, etc to return to the super-duper Islamic Motherland (or is it Fatherland?) is the day that they will start to earn an ounce of credibility.

Doing what, genius? Cyber-propaganda for Press TV or your duties at the local Islamist terrorist safe house (aka IRI "embassy").

The usual 99.9% turnout and a mandatory 25% margin of victory.
