Hey guys, ISIS won't be able to do any harm to Iran, nor do USA or Israel or anybody else,
This is one of the aspects of the real Threats.

Promising to reverse the trends of the Ahmadinejad era and bring prosperity and opportunity back to the country, Hassan Rouhani won the presidency one year ago. Rouhani is having some success repairing Tehran’s diplomatic relations while pushing for the removal of Western sanctions, but so far gains made on the international scene have done little to jumpstart the Islamic Republic’s lethargic economy or create new jobs, the numbers show.
Years of sanctions, strong family networks and a social welfare system that subsidizes the incomes of most Iranians have all contributed to an environment in which not working has become sociably acceptable. Yet millions of young Iranians are unsatisfied with their lives and choosing a variety of paths in the hopes of improving them — often by leaving Iran.
“As a generation we do not have anything; we don’t build anything,” said Sanaz Azimipour, 22, an unemployed mathematics student at Tehran University. “If our parents do not give us a room or do not feed us, we will either end up depressed or addicted to drugs,” said Azimipour, who sees no future for herself professionally here after she graduates next year.

Iran’s population has doubled since its 1979 revolution, but the number of university students in the country has increased more than 25 times to over 4.5 million people.
Iran’s Labor Minister, Ali Rabiei, believes youth unemployment will soon become an even bigger issue as millions more young people finish their education and start looking for jobs.
The Labor Ministry has earmarked nearly $75 million to be paid to 100,000 university-educated, unemployed Iranians.
But that's just a drop in the bucket.
More than 2.5 million young Iranians are currently unemployed, of which 1.1 million are university graduates, Rabiei said recently. He called the current unemployment situation in the country a "crisis" and said, “if the country doesn’t do something effective in creating jobs, we will face a tsunami of 5.6 million educated jobless.”
The country's official unemployment rate is over 12.2 percent, but some analysts believe the real figure is as much as double that. Youth unemployment stands at over 26 percent, Iran’s Statistics Center recently reported, but experts say the figure could be as high as 40 percent.
“We cannot use the state’s figures as the basis of studies for the correct rate of unemployment, because they are not statistically sound,” said Hamid Haj-Esmaeili, an expert in the labor field.
