?Would Gunnin have been the most important Iranian intelligence treasure in Israel
Meir Shamir
What can Iran be offered as minister 20 years ago?
The Israeli intelligence, which dealt with the case of Gonen Segev, the former minister, who turned out to be an Iranian spy, has two central questions: First, of course, what precise information will be conveyed to the Iranians; and secondly, has he succeeded in establishing relations between Iranians and other Israelis?
Turning to the first question, answer vehicle. The last time he sat in the Israeli cabinet table was 20 years ago. Since then, because of his involvement in the drug trade and his imprisonment, he would have been cut off from influential circles. In an interview with Israel's Channel Two a few years ago, he explained that the reason for his stability in Africa was that he felt he was being ostracized in Israel. It is estimated that Iran has obtained information on Israel's energy economy, as Siegfried was the energy minister.
Another point is that the former Iranian minister's operators wanted to "link" them with other Israelis, that is, senior security officials who are conducting deals in Africa. According to what was published in Israel (a large part of the details are still banned), such attempts have been unsuccessful.
The fact that the Iranians have continued with Siegf and even paid him money for years suggests that it was worthwhile for them (even Seghaf visited Iran twice). But Iran also paid for the symbolic importance that Iranian intelligence attaches to the recruitment of a senior Israeli Jewish official, Former Minister. Without deliberately working, the disclosure of the Siegfgh case was a symbolic Iranian revenge against the smuggling of the Iranian nuclear file by Israel.
It can also be learned from this that Iran and Israel also believe that they are waging a war against each other, which is becoming more and more acute in the Trump era and under Iranian concentration in Syria. Therefore, the Shin Bet recently strengthened its efforts to monitor Iranian attempts to recruit strategic information sources in Israel.
Surprisingly, in the age of cyber warfare, and the ability to access information from any computer or cell phone, countries are still investing considerable efforts in recruiting human intelligence agents. It seems that to understand the reality of the system of forces, human beings and relations between them, there is still a lack of finding a suitable alternative.
