Perez-Shakdam exposes fragility of mullah regime’s security
Despite the intense propaganda
practiced by the Iranian media about the strength and dominance of the
country’s security services, foreign fingers are moving freely across the country
after their success in penetrating the Iranian security services and recruiting
a number of its leaders and affiliates.
The Israeli intelligence services
managed to seize nuclear documents, in addition to the space archive, from
inside a secret building at the Turquzabad nuclear site, shipped them in
trucks, and smuggled them outside the country without the security services
succeeding in detecting them. They also targeted sensitive military
installations.
Recently, Israel’s foreign
intelligence service, Mossad, announced that it had succeeded in planting an
agent in the heart of one of the Iranian media institutions, a British analyst
named called Catherine Perez-Shakdam, who appeared frequently on the Iranian
English-language Press TV channel and worked as an article writer on a website
that publishes Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s writings. She also worked for
newspapers such as Mashregh, which is close to the Iranian Revolutionary
Guards.
Perez-Shakdam recently published her
story on the Times of Israel website and admitted that she carried out all
these actions and activities in order to gain access to sensitive places in
Iran. She explained how she hid her motives in order to gain the confidence of
the authorities and revealed the story of her meeting with Iranian President
Ebrahim Raisi when he was on his election campaign in the city of Rasht, the
capital of Gilan Province, in the north of the country.
After publishing the topic, the
articles written by Perez-Shakdam on the Al-Murshid website were completely
deleted, but by searching on the global search engine, it was possible to find
topics for them on Al-Murshid and Al-Rawda magazine issued by the Media Center
at the Hosseiniya Shrine in Karbala, as well as articles on Houthi militia
sites and Iraqi militias affiliated with Tehran.
It should be noted that the Israeli
intelligence has influence within the intelligence services and security
departments of the Iranian regime to the extent that former Iranian President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad explained in previous statements how Israel was able to
carry out major operations in Iran due to the corruption of the Revolutionary
Guards and the seizure of the most important nuclear and space documents from
sensitive centers. Even an important official who took charge of combating
Israeli espionage activities in the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence discovered
that he had worked as a spy for the Mossad.
