"Joint teams from Israel and one of the neighboring countries make the clouds entering into Iran barren. Moreover, we are faced with the cases of cloud theft and snow theft," Brigadier General Gholam Reza Jalali, head of Iran's Civil Defense Organization. [1]
Head of Iran’s Civil Defense Organization said he is suspicious about the role of enemies in climate change in Iran, saying the Zionist regime of Israel makes the clouds barren before they roll across Iran. [2]

"The only quasi-expert in clouds that I know is Dr. Roy Spencer, the official climatologist here at the EIB Network, University of Alabama Huntsville. And he has written extensively on clouds and water vapor and their effect on the greenhouse gases, CO2 and climate change. But even Dr. Spencer will tell you, steal a cloud, you can’t even go make one."
I know of efforts to seed clouds to make it rain. But the fact is out there, Al, there are still massive droughts over which we have no control whatsoever. I’m also trying to figure out the actual theft of a cloud, if we’re gonna actually seriously discuss this, how would that happen, Al? How would the Israelis steal a cloud that the Iranians have manufactured? - Rush Limbaugh [4]
Meteorologists have very little knowledge of cloud seeding, let alone weather warfare.
