IRI better invest in a land cable, or reliable satellite uplinks.

What a coincidence. Just when Iran was set to open its new oil bourse
on the Island of Kish in the Persiah Gulf, where Iran intended to
trade oil in any currency other than the U.S. dollar, suddenly three
(count 'em) undersea internet cables were "accidentally" severed
effectively shutting off all of Iran from internet access.
What a lucky break for those big oil companies and international
financiers who depend on the hegemony of the U.S. dollar in
international trade. Some observers felt strongly that opening the
bourse would significantly devalue the U.S. dollar.
Lucky for the United States and Israel, the "accidental" cutting of
all three cables supplying Iran with access to the internet will delay
the opening indefinitely, or at least until the big money boys can
divest themselves of dollar assets before the crash.
We know it was all accidental because the United States is the only
country with subsurface vessels and divers capable of deliberately
severing the cables. The vessels are part of the U.S. military, and
only the president of the United States could order the U.S. Navy to
deliberately sabotage international communications cables. Therefore,
it could only have been three lucky accidents.
