Immigrant:
Iranian cook it self and drink Tea.
They have a few Forwarders as they dont deliver each sending itself.
One Place is near Salzburg where they unload and wait for a Load back.
EU-Lorries deliver then in all over EU.
Yeh yeh never mind all that
Is the driver a supporter of the Ayahtolla, could he be a jihadist, or has he turned Communist, what do you reckon his opinion on ■■■■ Germany is, does he think that Corbin is exactly like Callaghan, and has he even heard of the special relationship between Thatcher and Reagan.■■?
So many questions to be answered, and we are all on the edge of our seats here waiting for answers.
Used to do the middle east in the eighties.
I ran with a bloke that ran to Tehran and got caught up in the"revolution" and he was impounded.
Every day people brought and shared their food with him,made him welcome and cared for him.
The reason for the “revolution” was that the Shah of Iran was selling all the oil wealth to Exxon and Texaco at pennies to the pound while the Iranian people could not feed their children.
I suggest that you and a few more bigots on here take a few moments to look at facts instead of ■■■■■■■■ that make you feel “oh so superior”
whisperingsmith:
Forgetting Politics - and most drivers just get on with things regardless who is in power – speak to any of the Old Middle East hands and the majority will speak highly of the Iranian drivers and the Iranian people too.
Back in better days, the Iranian drivers were well educated, very good International drivers and always joined in if someone was in trouble and needed help – I doubt they have changed much!!
There were also a fair number of Brits & other Europeans driving for Iranian firms on Euro runs.
Iran is still a safe country with friendly people and the food at roadside stops is light years better than the UK.
With Iran & Europe getting closer together following the Nuclear Plant and agreement to deal with a common enemy, with any luck there will be a growth in road freight to Iran.
I wouldn’t hesitate, in fact I’d jump at the chance to go there again. Just must have a manual box.

Then come back and feed me your horse [zb].
If I’ve read it right the ‘facts’ in your view say that the holocaust never happened.Obviously just like the Islamic utopia of post 1979 Iran.

And as I said you still get people who are bigots and refuse to believe the facts
Only problem is that the blind refuse to see.

perhaps the revolution was good for the iranian people, they looked very happy in 2012!
Carryfast:
More like racist,anti semitic,genocidal Iranian foreign policy.Which probably no coincidence just happens to be applying that policy as an Islamic Republic and certainly not before 1979.
So basically, nothing to do with trucks and drivers then, regardless of where they come from.

Economic sanctions ( which we should be applying ) obviously applies to transport links of whatever type.Which obviously means Iranian registered trucks.
Are you saying that Iran shouldn’t be subjected to such sanctions.If so why.

Maybe because they are not animals that imprison a 70 year old man for a couple of years then want to give them 350 lashes for having a couple of bottles of home brewed wine in the boot of their car unlike our “ally” Saudi Arabia.

As I said the difference between 1938 and now was that Chamberlain was playing for time.Whereas what we’re seeing now with such Jihadist apologist bs is appeasement.
muckles:
Is that really your problem or is it jealousy that the driver has driven through more Countries in one trip than you managed in a whole career.
As I said I don’t view it any differently to a German registered wagon or any other type of transport link being allowed in and welcomed here in August 1939.
Although admittedly possibly the same could arguably apply in the case of all Islamic countries trade links for a similar reason.
I bet he is an owner driver too and likes airshows, conservatives and hates the 1970’s, oh and he personally told me he thinks unions are ■■■■ too.

Probably right but when you put up you “help for heroes” banner remember that folk like you were all in favour of blowing a few legs or arms ofF(as long as it wasnt yours of course) and you can feel oh so proud.
Just like Iraq or Afghanistan.We “won” didnt we ?
Thats why the Taliban and ISIS aka CIA still kicked the British,American and numerous other amatuer armies ■■■.

Bearing in mind that we’re taking a knife,in the form of boots on the ground and PC rules of engagement and limited use of tactical weaponry.To a gunfight that needs a strategic weapons approach against Saudi and Iran it’s not surprising that our boots on the ground got a kicking in that case.
As for Al Queda and IS etc etc yes definitely the guerilla sub contract wing of a hidden state sponsored Saudi,Turkish and probably Iranian Jihadist agenda.Hopefully both us an Russia will realise that we’re being played for fools against each other when we should be working together to do whatever it takes to take out/annihilate the threat at its roots in those countries.
