Getting info to/from there has been tough.
However, my contacts, (only 2) tell me some bitter sweet things about Iran.
Former american SOs would be welcomed there but they must bring a significant contribution to the needs of the nation.
Former Americans will mostlikely never reach top positions in business.
Technical positions earning 2000-5000 US per month abound, especially in the nuclear and power fields.
Former US Air Force and Navy Missile techs who are now RSOs should seriously consider Iran as anew home. You would be treated very well, much much better than you can ever be expected to be treated in the United States of America.
Iran is also very interested in expanding and improving its rail infrastructure and anyone with heavy diesel, railway and generator experience should consider Iran as a new and wonderful home. General Electric, via non-US offices may soon replenish Iran with over 100 Engines and 500 wagons(cars). GE already sells gas turbines to Iran from its France office.
Family conditions in Iran are much better as well. Your children will not be outcasts in the schools, which by the way are VERY good. Iranians are not fools, and you can expect your child to get a good education and not be burdened with the stigmas of your RSO status or the problem of social status being more important than math homework.
Wives of RSOs will have to follow some modesty rules, but women in Iran are permitted, no, expected to work to provide for the greater good of their nation. Educated American women, wives of RSOs, would be the best way to get the family there!
Kish is going to be the next Dubai, and if you can get there fast enough, you might establish yourself in a nice place and be allowed to live out your life in relative peace, away from the United States and the hysteria that drives people to print out a public list and kill you and you family if they are close. Americans want to kill your kids because you are a RSO, so there is no safety for your children anymore.
Of course the down side to Iran is the posturing the United States is doing to convince the masses that the US needs to "spread peace and democracy" to Iran in the near future. When you are handed a rifle and asked to defend your home against American Marines coming to "set you free," it might be tough to pull the trigger.
The upside of Iran is that the world doesnt seem to fussed about finding new ways of moving our big butts from place to place, so oil will still be a vital commodity and Iran is VERY cash strong right now and there is no reason to think that will change soon.
China and Russia will protect Iran, so if the US decides to "free" the Iranian people, it will not be easy.
Iran is not Grenada, Beirut, Tripoli, Panama, Mogudishu(sp), Liberia, Colombia, or Iraq. Iraq was friendless, Iran is not. Sooner or later the US will go too far.
Does America think the 560,000 RSOs being listed here are going to help defend the US borders? HA, quite unlikely. American can "fend for themselves." LOL
Next: Colombia/Venezuela
