Citing Western intelligence source, the German magazine disclosed a top-secret plan — code-named “Dirty Water” — created by senior figures in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. Its aim is to force Western powers into a colossal clean-up operation, for which they would need Iran’s help. This technical assistance would be granted only if sanctions imposed on the regime were dropped.

That is another thing I was wondering......why tell everybody? If you wanted to do this it seems much more logical to stage it as an accident. That's what I would do.

It's actually a pretty clever plan, I'm surprised they or another country hasn't done this.
Come on, think it through. It's a stupid plan on many levels.
1. The livelihood of many would be compromised e.g. fishermen. Thus would cause angst of Iran's neighbours. Not clever.
2. It would be an environmental catastrophe. This would alienate many who support Iran's position e.g. Western liberals who are on auto-like anything US/Western. Not clever.
3. It would mess up their back yard. Why crap in your own kitchen? Not clever.
4. It is a case of cutting off your nose to spite your face.
On the basis that this is a really silly idea, I have to entertain the fact the Iranian authorities have considered it!
