A senior Iranian police commander recently told an agent of Israel’s renowned Mossad intelligence service “I swear on the Koran I’m not your enemy” and begged the Jewish state to “please come help us” overthrow the Islamic Republic, according to the contents of a leaked phone call.
The call, reported by the Wall Street Journal Wednesday, was one of several placed by Israeli intelligence threatening Iranian security officials and their families by name if they did not stand aside in the event of a popular uprising to overthrow the mullahs.
“We know everything about you. You are on our blacklist, and we have all the information about you.” the Mossad agent told the police commander in Farsi. “I called to warn you in advance that you should stand with your people’s side. And if you will not do that, your destiny will be as your leader [Ayatollah Ali Khamenei]. Do you hear me?”
“Brother, I swear on the Koran, I’m not your enemy,” the commander responded. “I’m a dead man already. Just please come help us.”
The US and Israel have sought to create the conditions for the Iranian people to take down the theocratic regime by systematically striking its military infrastructure and targeting top political leaders for assassination, respectively, since Feb. 28.
According to the Journal, Israel says it has dropped 10,000 munitions on various targets, including more than 2,200 related to the notorious Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Basij paramilitary and other internal security forces. Thousands of Iranians are believed to have been killed or wounded, though a precise count has not been made available.
