The country’s plan for a nationwide intranet separated from the World Wide Web looks to be approaching fruition.Its purpose, they claim, would be to provide national cybersecurity and promote Islamic moral values. Iranian officials have talked about creating a "halal" internet - a religiously acceptable internal network isolated from the World Wide Web
They allocate two IP addresses to every machine that connects to the internet: a regular web address and an internal one that is only accessible from within Iran.
They found that more than 10,000 devices are already part of the network. The network also contains a good deal of content, such as academic websites and email services.

Yet the Iranian government is still investing its wealth into a pointless project, that is designed purely for vanity of the attollah.

What is Obama spending money on again...?
Edit: Had to add this for the people that believe that Obama is the lowest spending president in 60 years.

Edit: Iran is 107th on the list of below the poverty line (18.7%)
The USA is 123rd on the list of below the poverty line (15.1%)
That translates to:
Iran: 4 Million people
USA: 20 Million people
In practice, like the definition of poverty, the official or common understanding of the poverty line is significantly higher in developed countries than in developing countries.

The Iranian Americans I know would laugh their ASSES OFF reading some of what is posted here. They have just very recently been able to talk via Iranians in Iran using SMART PHONES that can pierce Government Internet Filters as they connect to Social Websites.
Iran is controlled by a small group of THIEVES who use Islamic Ideals to impose Laws that are so brutal...they make the Shah look like a SAINT! The good news is that it has been decided that Iran's current REGIME will be removed. This is inevitable and is just a matter of time.
In the first revelation of the dimension of bombings by the aging B-52s, Schwarzkopf said 27 B-52's dropped 455 tons of explosives on the Republican Guard Saturday, 21 of the high-flying craft dropped 315 tons Tuesday and another 28 let loose 450 tons today. "That's not to mention the other strikes that we're doing with F-16s, F-15Es, A-6s, etc.," he said.
He said the B-52s performed with "a much higher degree of accuracy than they're given credit for."
