BALBOA + 37 BR July 22, 2019 Iran said Monday it has arrested 17 Iranian nationals allegedly recruited by the Central Intelligence Agency to spy on the country’s nuclear and military sites, and that some of them have already been sentenced to death. The arrests took place over the past months and those taken into custody worked on “sensitive sites” in the country’s military and nuclear facilities, an Iranian intelligence official told a press conference in Tehran. He did not elaborate, say how many of them got the death sentence nor when the sentences were handed down. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ward Smith + 6,615 July 22, 2019 The CIA is too fat and lazy to run their own spies. They've outsourced everything, and only look at satellite photos and send in drones to double check. There's not a James Bond in the whole organization. They don't have intelligence on the ground, that's why they're always surprised when things happen 2 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jan van Eck + 7,558 MG July 24, 2019 If the CIA ever hired James Bond, then they would have him running around chasing Honor Blackman instead of finding out site intel on Iran nuke installations. Oh, well. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They didn't have any or not much oversight when it came to inspections, They had to give Iran ahead up on any inspections they did before hand. Also Iran told them which plants they could do the inspection on. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeTee + 1 MW July 26, 2019 At least Brennan is no longer involved feeding Iranian mullahs information harmful to the U.S........On the other hand, "if" there is any truth to this proclamation by Iran......., one can only wonder how many of the 17 were given up by Kerry. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you sure you want Trump to give nuclear technology to Iran?? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_nuclear_deal_framework https://youtu.be/3W62vlT9zjg?t=55 https://youtu.be/FZRF4V5-Xqc?t=135 https://youtu.be/51pMod2Aaso?t=42 Edited July 26, 2019 by Uvuvwevwevwe Onyetenyevwe Ugwemuhwem Osas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephenk + 28 SK July 27, 2019 (edited) What choice did they have as it was Obama's deal and the rest of the world had to go along with it and at the time they were pushing it and they just wanted to make some kind of deal so he could look good for the up coming election and I think that where Trump dosen't care he wants a deal that will hold them accountable!
