I’m seeing more Iranian taxi drivers telling me Iran is having more rainfall after Iranian attacks on the Persian Gulf Arab countries.
I don’t know if it’s a conspiracy or if there’s some logic behind it, but it’s been raining (& thundering) a lot lately.

Very interesting 🤔
My mother has told me similiar things. A lot of people in Iran are apparently saying that the gulf Arab countries and US were somehow preventing rain because Iran has been in a drought for a few years now.
Personally I've not seen any evidence for this beyond what could be a mere coincidence. Though if someone more adept in the fields of meteorology and climatology could way in on it, that would be much appreciated. Personally I just assume it's climate change and extreme weather conditions.
I know cloud seeding is a thing; it would be curious to know if they can induce drought that way too.
If there's one thing I hate about having my eyes opened to how untrustworthy anything in western media is, it's that I can no longer read shit like this and dismiss it as a conspiracy theory.
Cloud seeding is relatively straightforward. Just put some dust in the air at the right altitudes. It's why you'll often see it rain after a firework show. Or presumably a few days of missile launches.
