A naturalized
U.S. citizen of Iranian origin was arrested on charges of attempting to ship
F-35 technical data to Iran. Mozaffar Khazaee was detained on
January 9 at Newark International Airport on his way to Tehran, The Navy Times
reported today.
Khazaee was charged with “transporting, transmitting and transferring in interstate or foreign commerce goods obtained by theft, conversion, or fraud.” The crime carries a maximum 10 years imprisonment.
Khazaee, an employee
of Pratt and Whitney, was allegedly going to ship “numerous boxes of documents
consisting of sensitive technical manuals, specification sheets, and other
proprietary material for the F-35.” (The Navy Times, 13 January)
F-35 is the
fifth-generation fighter, which is expected to be the backbone of American air
superiority over the next several decades.
I have full sympathy for this unfortunate fellow Iranian who may have been the victim of a dirty sting operation.
ReplyDeleteWhy would the Americans want to do something like that?
DeleteAnd Mark supposed to be an military expert of this blog in the past.
ReplyDeleteAnd what the hell would the Iranians do with the information, beside transferring it to the Russians and the Chinese?
ReplyDeleteagain, false flag operation- how so idiot agent exposes
ReplyDeleteThere is no reason for creating "false-flag" operation. Nobody benefits from it.
DeleteIt would not be the first false flag operation. The American regime already manufactured another case against an Iranian American person, here: http://www.uskowioniran.com/2012/10/iranian-american-pleads-guilty-to.html
