“Iran has been ridiculed in recent months after
attempting to showcase its technological
advances only to face accusations they were
faked.
In February, it proudly unveiled a stealth fighter
jet at a ceremony attended by President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, but experts quickly
expressed serious doubts about whether it could
even fly.
A picture of the domestically produced Qaher-313
apparently soaring over Iranian mountains did
little to curb scepticism amid claims the plane
never actually left the ground, but was simply
doctored using Photoshop.
Critics also believe Iran's claims that it launched a
monkey into space could have been faked.
Scientists in Tehran hailed the mission to send a
simian 75 miles above Earth and back in a
Kavoshgar rocket as a success.
But question marks were raised after the monkey
presented to the nation as the heroic astronaut
looked remarkably different than the one which
made lift off.“

Let's leave it.

Sounds to me when he's talking fluctuating oil prices and such, all he's really saying is his machine is predicting future price changes with what he believes is a high level of accuracy. So just like anyone else, he's using computer programs to estimate future trends from past data and a bit of future estimations.

""The reason that we are not launching our prototype at this stage is that the Chinese will steal the idea and produce it in millions overnight."

Have you ever heard anything better than that?
