Tehran claimed Monday it was holding a U.S. spy who had confessed he was on a mission to infiltrate the Iranian Intelligence Ministry. Iran’s Press TV reported Amir Mirzaei Hekmati had been detained recently and had admitted he was a U.S. Central Intelligence Agency operative.
I read the article about his capture and it seems to me that he is admitting an awful lot to be a captured spy. They must have rushed him through that part of the instruction when he was in spy school.
In a segment aired on Iranian television Sunday night, Hekmati, said he enlisted in the U.S. Army in 2001 and was trained in intelligence gathering for years. He said he was shipped to Bagram air base in Afghanistan and was given access to classified information before flying to Tehran. Now does this seem to be the confessions of a captured spy to you or the propaganda of the Iranian government.
He allegedly said his mission was to gain the confidence of Iranian intelligence operatives, using the secret information he had been provided by the CIA.
Now there was a past incident in which some US spies were compromised recently so this capture may in fact have happened but I believe that the confession has been embellished. www.militaryringexpress.com/products
