The HIV virus is 45 times more prevalent among Iran's street children than the rest of the population.

Social worker Farshid Yazdani said that 4.5 percent of Iran's street children are infected with the HIV virus which causes AIDS, the Iranian Labour News Agency (ILNA) reports.

Street children spend their days selling items ranging from socks to chewing gums or gathering recyclable material from trash bins. Some are as young as 10 when they start using narcotics and alcohol.

About 20 percent of these children have used narcotics and 40 percent have consumed alcohol, Yazadani said.

The social worker pointed to the government policy, inflation, worsening economy and poverty as the main reasons why families send their children to work.

Street children in Iran:HIV, drugs and poverty

by Simorgh5555 on Sat May 26, 2012 04:22 AM PDT

This is Khomeini's legacy. Send money to Lebanon to build schools and hospitals. Send money to Karballah, organise pilgrimages and decorate Shia Imam's graves with gold and silver but small children are sent to beg on the street and carry AIDS.

I PRAY FOR AN ISRAELI ROCKET TO ANIHILATE THOSE SITTING AT THE SEAT OF POWER IN THE IR.ALL THE BASIJ, SPAH AND THE MULLAHS.MAY A JEWISH ROCKET PIERCE THE HEARTS OF THEIR FAMILY MAY THEIR ENTIRE FAMILY BE WIPED OUT BY AN ISRAELI ROCKET.

NETANYAHU BOMB THE MULLAHS. CONSIGN THEM AND THEIR ENTIRE FAMILY TO HELL.

    CIA sending heroin into Iran from Afghanistan - history of drugs

    by Zed on Sat May 26, 2012 08:02 PM PDT


    An August, 1996, series in the San Jose Mercury News by reporter Gary Webb linked the origins of crack cocaine in California to the contras, a guerrilla force backed by the Reagan administration that attacked Nicaragua's Sandinista government during the 1980s. An electronic briefing book is compiled from declassified documents obtained by the National Security Archive, including the notebooks kept by NSC aide and Iran-contra figure Oliver North, electronic mail messages written by high-ranking Reagan administration officials, memos detailing the contra war effort, and FBI and DEA reports. The documents demonstrate official US government knowledge of drug operations, and collaboration with and protection of known drug traffickers. Court and hearing transcripts are also included.

    because they get raped

    by Sheila K on Sat May 26, 2012 07:58 PM PDT

    child beggers are captives in the hands of big mobs in Iran. their pimps deliberately break their arms, legs, blind them and do many other horrible things to them to use people's empathy (which doesn't exist much in Iran). In Iran, when the subject of HIV is brought up even the doctors are forced to blame drugs as if sex doesn't exist--like we don't have any gays in Iran kinda thing--total denial. Those children are victimized in the most unimaginable ways. So sad that not enough people feel for them.
