THERE IS NO HYPERINFLATION IN IRAN
2012-10-07

Contrary to reports, there is no hyperinflation in Iran right now at all.

In fact, the Western sanctions imposed on Iran's oil trade are failing miserably to meet their objectives.
Until their central bank runs out of dollars...
And a regime collapse -- or even, coming short of that, another popular uprising reminiscent of June 2009 -- seems further away from Iran than ever.
Meanwhile, the Iranian regime is using the current sanctions imposed against it by the West as a weapon to weaken its own fiercest domestic threat -- the educated, relatively pro-Western Iranian constituency that comprises the middle class.
