“Israels” Shin Bet wants Persian-speaking field coordinators

Local Editor, 11-12-2009

"Israeli" newspaper Haaretz reported that the Shin Bet security service published an unusual want ad in the newspapers this week, seeking "Persian-speaking field coordinators." Training for the position, the ad said, was open to both men and women, and would begin in April.

Haaretz said that The Shin Bet apparently aims to find candidates to serve as field agents to allegedly thwart infiltration attempts by Iranian intelligence agents in "Israel".

The Shin Bet used to couch its want ads in the most general terms, usually saying it was seeking candidates for "interesting security jobs." Usually the ads were either signed by the Prime Minister's Office or were unsigned, with an anonymous post-office box supplied where candidates could send inquiries, Haaretz continued.

According to Haaretz, the want ad for Persian speakers contains a series of new elements that makes it stand out.

Haaretz says that the reason behind the ad is that the Shin Bet seeks to hire new immigrants from Iran in "Israel".

The unusually detailed want ad seems to show that the service has not been very successful finding enough suitable candidates to become Persian-speaking field coordinators.
"Israel" is resorting to aerial espionage and intelligence spy rings to spy on Iran, claiming its purpose is to track Iran's nuclear program, which "Israel" sees as the greatest strategic threat it is facing today.
