Statistics like Ash Nazri Molansardin
Mohammadreza Bahnar, one of the most famous fundamentalist political figures who has a long history in the Islamic Council, has announced in his last interview that:
The black vote in our country means those who do not accept the system and Islam and are in favor of America and Israel, which may be 5 million people.
Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf also announced during the election that he represents 96% of the people and against Hassan Rouhani who represents 4% of the people. The former mayor of Tehran called Rouhani and his supporters 4 percenters.
Apart from these two principled politicians, other famous figures of the country also use numbers and figures for their words.
Here, these friends must answer a simple question on what basis they announce these statistics.
The source of announcing statistics and figures in Iran is the Iranian Statistics Center. An institution whose task is to obtain demographic information and statistics, employment, unemployment, people’s lifestyle and so on. is The only institution that can partially rely on his statistics is the Statistics Center.
Where did Mr. Bahner get this figure of 5 million from? Which organization in Iran told Mr. Bahner that America and Israel have about 5 million supporters in Iran.
Or which organization had announced to Mr. Qalibaf that 4% of the people of Iran have the rights of the other 96% and the same way.
Either these statistics are unsupported or obtained from an institution or organization. It is better for every person who is responsible or has been responsible to state the source of his statistics when he speaks with statistics.
5 million supporters of America and Israel in Iran is not a small number. Interested, not a fan. This means that America and Israel have a capital of 5 million people in Iran.
Qalibaf’s statistics also show that on the eve of the 40th anniversary of the revolution, 96% of people live in poverty and struggle with many problems.
Maybe it is these statistics that cause some people to enter the election campaign without studying and think that they can rely on the presidential seat or the Islamic Councilor’s seat based on these statistics that they have heard.
We saw the same meaning in the recent elections. Many of the 96 percent that Ghalibaf talked about voted for the representative of the 4 percent in the presidential election and refused to vote for the representative of the 96 percent.
Some of these statistics are similar to the story of Ash Nazri and Molanseruddin.
It is said that one day Melan Nasruddin went to a bakery to buy bread, and because the bakery line was busy, an idea came to his mind and he announced that they were giving offerings in the upper alley. People of the common people left the line of bread and went to the wrong address to get Nazri food.
When everyone left, Mullah thought to himself in a moment, they are really offering food and we will stay here without a share, so without buying bread, he followed the people to an imaginary place to get food. .
These statistics should not deceive both the society and the statistician. It is better to use words such as some, part, some people instead of these statistics./ Asr Iran
