Musings of a former chicken

US/Israel have spies at the highest level of IRI leadership.

How else could they blow up the sepah's rocket base and the "father of islamist regime's rocket industry"(That ws a funny one , wasnt it? I thought the daddy would have a N.Korean name!)?

BTW, what was ahmadinezhad's right hand man mashai doing in tel Aviv/ Why is ahmadinezhad constantly visiting New York? Just saying...

This poor guy is very innocent and very naive. I feel real bad for him and his family. they should had never let him travel back to Tehran... 

"Personal business must yield to collective interest."

Poor guy is not a spy!

Faramarz & Fred got it exactly right.  No need to send a US born X marine. Plenty, I mean plenty, of Iranians from within who would love to spy against the IRI. Just like plenty of Lebanese who spy on Hezbollah. 

The IRI is looking for excuses because it got caught red handed trying to kill the Saudi ambassador in the US. The IRI wants war more than anyone, as its their only tool left for survival; assuming that they can destroy the opposition as a result of a war

We have lots of Ardeshir Omani types who will make every excuse or lie  in the book for the IRI 

I feel very sad for his family....

the filthy ruthless akhoonds have no shame.....for the cyber basijis here who claim he may be a spy, you guys have no shame.....

like someone else said, if you're a cia spy, who ain't gonna go around showing your marine id?!!!!!

where is that idiot parsi to cry for human rights????  funny how these paid lobbyist only start yapping when someone is threatening their bosses in iran 

Dear Souri,

On the main US visa application forms for visiting the US for any purpose there are more than 20 questions pertaining to such issues as spying, prostitution, terrorism, torture, human trafficking, etc. Many people are offended by such questions, however, they serve a good purpose. Having prior knowledge of the applicant's activities would help the visa officers at the embassy or consulate to make a decision on whether a visa should be granted or not. What Jaleho claims is outrageously dumb, if not criminal. This is not a case where a spy has illegally entered a country. This, based on what Jaleho claims, was a trap! And a visa officer's job description should not include setting up traps for applicants.

I think G.Rahmanian is right

What he says, makes more sense to me, than your reasoning, Jaleho.

One More Thing, Jaleho!

What can IR do with a dead "spy?"

Contradiction As Always, Jaleho!

If your beloved IR criminals knew the guy was a spy, why would they let him enter Iran and arrest him? Why wouldn't they bar him from entering Iran? Why would IR officials want to purposefully worsen the situation and raise the level of tension, my dear? Especially, when they already know US wants to increase the type of tension, as you say! Isn't that playing by American rules? Isn't that sick?

Souri, your answer is here

First I should say that unlike the people at Iranian.com who know with certainty who is a spy and who is not, I am not so sure. And, yes, sarcasm was intended.

If you like random rants on the opposite directions though, here are some:

Iran recently busted a CIA circle inside Iran, which the US confirmed.

They also got a US spy drone, with no clear sign of what they actually discovered from it in terms of spy information. US confirmed that too.

If your question is, "why did IRI give the OK  entry to Iran to a spy," the answer is" duh, to catch him!" It is easier to catch him inside Iran than outside, would be my guess.

If you may wonder, why the guy ventured to go to Iran if he actually were a spy, and knew there are dangers. I guess the quick answer would be, most spy go to do spying, even when they know they are spies :-) Let alone that they get ORDERS to do so. It would be a bad luck if a spy is sent to do some spying when the BOSS knows that he would be caught, but does that using a sacrificial lamb to increase the type of tensions that FRED enjoys.

 But hey, I can never be as sure as you guys.

Jaleho

I just want to know the truth. No sarcasm nor disrespect is meant.

Please let me know how you answer to Faramar's comment, here below.

My question is: If the guy succeed to get his passport from the Iranian consulate in DC, then how is that they(you) considered him as a spy?

I am just wondering about the logical reasoning of this subject. For now, i am not siding with any party. Just want to know the truth.

Thank you.

Mind is a Terrible Thing!

This guy applied for a passport from the Interest Section in DC, disclosed his background and employment history, and once he got his passport and visa, he assumed that all was well to travel to Iran and see his grandmothers. He even took his US Marine id and pictures with him.

You could spot this guy from a mile away. 

The real spies in the Islamic Republic look more like Sepah and Basijis, not an American tourist.

Look at the Palestinian territories to get a clue about who spies for Israel; Average Palestinians who need money and don't like their leadership. That's what spying has always been about, and women!

Agree with Fred and Faramarz

This guy was not aware of the evil nature of this regime when he decided to go for a visit. He thought they are humans and understand logic. Spies are the Akhonds and their families who as we know they are all for sale, be it for killing Hussein or spying for foreigners.

The best thing about England is that we kicked out the regime germs back to their beloved IRI. Good riddance. Every Western country has to kick out these parasites back to where they belong.

And

With the infiltration of MEK in every possible IR hole, why do the US or Israel need to send individuals from outside for the job?

Isn't That True!!!

"P.S. Do you get paid from IR or just do it voluntarily? Just imagine if IR pays you for all the different IDs you use in here, you could have retired by now."

Jaleho, common sense is a terrible thing to waste

It has been public knowledge for the past 32 years that US, Israel and whoever else likes to have Iranian spies and secrets stolen from IR go straight to the source. They recruit and buy IR, or Sepah officials, thus the Stuxnet affair and..

P.S. Do you get paid from IR or just do it voluntarily? Just imagine if IR pays you for all the different IDs you use in here, you could have retired by now

how long before you delete my message?

Every time I wonder?

interesting how Fred and Faramarz know spies

The Iranian.com community has such intelligent people who are always sure who is a spy and who is not. Be it the Americans who found themselves in Iran by mistake as they were enjoying the good sport of hiking in the dangerous Iraqi Kurdistan. or the US marine who went to see his grandma only, poor thing.

Why dn't you guys get paid for your detailed knowledge?

NIAC not saying anything

Nothing in the
News Section
Nothing in their Policy Positions
NIAC's explanation: We are not a human rights or lobbying group.
Then what are you then you monkey?! You're just an educational group who happens to be interested in one thing only: removal of sanctions against the IR and the prevention of military action.

مآمور

 
your watch is as gholabi as your nukes. You are two hours and 30mins early.

pffft

first question he was asked for?

 چند سالته دندونی؟؟؟

I wear an Omega watch

essential equipment for spying

some one some where in Israeli intelligence services ripped him off his Omega watch, those people in Israel know the true value of watches and jewelery!! dont they??? he got to Iran without his equipment.

He had Asgari's watch(former assistance to defence ministre allegedly kidnapped by israelis) and that was a watch made in Iran!!! Trust me for such mission, one would need an omega watch.

I wear an Omega watch

He is not a Spy

In the eyes of the Regime, his crime is that he is a US Marine and has served his country in Iraq and Afghanistan. But he is not a spy.

A while ago I watched an interview with an ex-CIA guy about the difficulties of penetrating al-Qaeda’s upper ranks. This is a summary of what he said which also applies to Amir Hekmati.

“There are many Americans that know the culture, speak the language and have volunteered to go to Afghanistan, join al-Qaeda or Taliban and try to penetrate their organization. The problem is that the second they smile and show the rows of white teeth that have been well taken care of by dentists and braces, the enemy will know that they are not one of them and will kill them.”

What the US government should do is to deliver a personal message to Khamenei and let him know that the US holds him personally responsible for Amir Hekmati and any act of violence against him will be returned in kind against the Dear Rahbar.

I Agree, IRR/IRI is desparate

and do anythiong to stay in power even killing 70 mil & destroying IRAN. 

I wished I shared your

I wished I shared your confidence, Fred. Only military action can save him and the millions of other Iranians enslaved by this evil regime.
