"Iran has been the recipient of clandestine broadcasting funded by both the U.S. and the Soviet Union - when it was still the USSR.  Recently, however, Washington is believed to have pulled the plug, so to speak, on broadcasts.  But programs continue to eminate from Iraq, Russia, and now, Moldova, sponsored by Baghdad and the community-in-exile.
