Middle Eastern Country Condemned for Building Oil-Fired Power Station

Qurani leaders were condemned today by Western politicians for recommencing work on the Isfahan oil-fired power station that scientists believe may also be a secret refinery. The UN has long been sceptical that Quran harbours secret ambitions to use oil to make petrol which could lead to heaven knows what.

President Armani DinnerJacket stood before leading Quranis declaring that his people should be allowed to run gas-guzzling four by fours and that the extra refining capacity and the power station to run it were all essential steps in that process. "Off roaders are essential freedoms for our people - especially when we don't have many roads, " he stated.

But US Congressmen were suspicious. Senator Jenny Janitor said, "Who knows what problems this could cause the world? If the Quranis start using up their own oil on themselves, what are we in the US supposed to do?"

Quran became a democracy after the US led invasion in 2000 which toppled the former repressive regime and installed a liberal government. Citizens have since been free to go about their business and use up oil and precious resources as they like. Secret sources advised me that intelligence agents had begun work on a coup plot to ensure that a respessive regime is re-estalished immediately. Janitor nearly confirmed this saying, "People in other countries going around enjoying themselves at our expense has got to stop."
