Iran’s Revolutionary Guard arrest another Iranian-American
2016-09-01
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The intelligence wing of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard tossed in the slammer
... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not...
an Iranian-American dual national in late July on charges of plotting against national security and working with hostile governments, the news site of the Iranian judiciary said.

Mizan Online said on Wednesday the person was arrested in the province of Golestan.

At least half a dozen other dual-national Iranians, including at least three other Iranian-Americans, have been arrested on similar charges in the past year.

News of the latest arrest came on the same day that the Iranian parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy committee met members of the intelligence wing of the Revolutionary Guards.

The meeting, titled "the infiltration project", covered subjects including the potential of dual-national Iranians to be recruited as spies, Hussein Naqavi Husseini, the committee’s front man, said, according to the website of Iranian state TV.

"In this meeting it was brought up that dual-nationals are under the serious scrutiny of the enemies’ intelligence services and they are used in the infiltration project," Husseini said.

He said that a member of Iran’s nuclear negotiating team, a dual national who he did not name, was under investigation.

The Iranian judiciary said on Sunday that a member of the nuclear team had been arrested and released on bail but did not confirm whether that individual is a dual-national.

Hamid Baidinejad, a member of the nuclear negotiating team, posted on Instagram a defence of fellow member Abdul Rasoul Durri Esfahani, who was criticized as a foreign agent by hardline websites, according to the Islamic Theocratic Republic News Agency (IRNA).

Baidinejad said in his post that Durri Esfahani has worked for Iran in international relations for more than two decades. "Insisting that he is a spy is an open insult to the intelligence and security services of Iran," Baidinejad wrote.

#3   Or appear on stage in a white pants Suit. How's that?

I think you need to bend over with you pants around your ankles. That usually gets them excited.

#1  I have a good idea, let's send the Iranian govt. a pallet load of CASH, say about $400 million ( that seems about fair ) in unmarked bills. And then we can do it again. And again.

And I heard that we can make a treaty arrangement with Iran and they will honor the committment and not make an atomic and build rockets to deliver them, and they won't quote"Welcome a war with the United States" and not attack our shipping in the Persian/Arab Gulf. And we can be multi-cultural and rainbow flag with all our Moslem friends in the religion of Peace.

Did I get that right? Are we all perfectly PC now? How about if I bend over and bow when I say it? Or appear on stage in a white pants Suit. How's that?

I have to say, Hemingway, if we could just get your medication right we could let you comment and stay on the Burg. I'm not sure whether we need to halve your meds or double them.

Now then: you posted four times today. I didn't delete them on sight, though I was sorely tempted -- it's you, after all. This one (as Shipman correctly notes) is very close to the line in obnoxiousness. If you could back away from that line more you and I (and Pappy) wouldn't have a problem.

So I want you to work on that. Consider it a twelve-step program.
