This is a pretext for the Islamic Republic to be able to round up all manner of dissidents.
“Iran arrests at least 700 nationals for alleged ties to Israel – report,” Jerusalem Post, June 27, 2025:
Iran has arrested at least 700 people since Operation Rising Lion began due to alleged ties with Israel, the Iranian exiled women’s organization Association Femme Azadi reported on Thursday night.
“Reports confirm the arrest of rabbis and religious leaders in Tehran and Shiraz, accused, without evidence, of ties to Israel,” the organization wrote on its social media.
Six additional people have been executed on suspicion of collaborating with Mossad, Israel’s public broadcaster KAN News noted.
Iran has executed nine individuals accused of espionage so far in 2025, KAN added….
Editor’s note: The headline of an earlier version of this report said that 700 Jews were arrested, instead of 700 people. This mistake has since been corrected.
“Wave of arrests among Iranian Jews – despite loyalty to regime,” by Nitzan Kedar, Israel National News, June 27, 2025 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Jewish and international sources report a marked increase in pressure and alleged persecution of Iran’s Jewish community following Operation Rising Lion, despite public expressions of loyalty to the regime by Jewish leaders in the country.
According to Iran International, security forces recently raided the homes of Jewish families in Tehran, Shiraz, and Isfahan. During these operations, authorities confiscated mobile phones, computers, and other personal belongings. Individuals with any digital ties to relatives in Israel were reportedly detained for questioning, with some held for extended periods. In several cases, past travel to Israel was cited as grounds for arrest — a serious allegation under Iranian law.
The number of detainees remains unclear, though the names of dozens have been published. Jewish community sources describe an atmosphere of fear, with reports of entire families being taken into custody.
Today, Iran’s Jewish population is estimated at around 10,000, down from 80,000 before the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Most live in the same cities where these incidents have been reported.
In a statement this week, Dr. Younes, the Jewish representative in Iran’s parliament, acknowledged the community has faced difficulties, saying, “Air Force attacks in Iran have created many problems for the Jewish community,” including damage to homes. He emphasized that Iranian Jews remain committed to the Islamic Republic and its ideals….

Jewish population will continue to decrease as long as the Islamist are in power. They would rather kill 100,000 of their own people to stay in power annd these arrest’ and executions are their way to suppress the dissension.
A fair and honest election will never happen!

Since those despots in power in that oppressive tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran have ordered the unwarranted arrest of 700 people many people or more, without evidence, that they might have connections with Israel reveals two things.
First this shows that those tyrants in power in Iran must be even more afraid now, than before that official “ceasefire” began that their regime is so very weak that it might collapse , likewise they would then lose all their ruthless power.
Second those dictators who ordered all those massive arrests of so many people by the use of Revolutionary Guards , thugs in uniform , on the slightest suspicion and invalid flimsy confirmation then sent to those totally inhumane prisons in Iran is yet further proof that they saying is true, which is that “Evil is always looking for an excuse.”

Islam’s Muslims will oppress and slaughter their own Muslims to maintain, to solidify, and to increase their totalitarian power and control as taught in Islam’s Quran(Quran 9:5, 29, 111; 98:6-7). This life with Islam and its Muslims, instill fear and hatred against Non-Muslims.
Allah’s hateful Islam, a Terrorist-Criminal Enterprise and a Murderous Cult with its Believers, Terrorists for Allah continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, mass murder, supremacy, segregation, hatred, incitement to violence, genocide, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Quran(Quran 9:41, 88; 5:35, etc.). Hence, Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Americans and Westerners via Tax Exempt Organizations, the Media and Hollywood, Foreign Funding, etc. because Islam violates and is incompatible with Western Laws(Quran 9:5,29, 111; 49:15; 60:4 etc.).
Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam functions as a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) fighting against Non-Muslims and NOT A PEACEFUL religion under Western Law because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes Terrorist Criminal Organizations with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 9:5,29, 111; 49:15 etc.).
Allah’s demoniacal Islam, a hateful Antichrist Ideology, is using Western Freedoms and Laws against Non-Muslims to conquer Non-Muslims under Islamic Rule. Non-Muslims should legally designate Islam as a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO) where Mosques, Muslim Schools, Islamic Centers, Sharia Courts, and Muslim Organizations are banned because of their incitement of segregation and discrimination to fight back against ISLAMIZATION, Muslim subjugation, and tyrannical violence(Quran 4:65; 9:5,29,111; 60:4; 98:6-7 and more).
Sahih Bukhari 3126 says, “… the Prophet said, He who fights so that Allah’s Word(ie. Islam) should be superior, fights for Allah’s Cause.” Allah in Quran 9:111 says, “Surely Allah has purchased from the believers[Muslims] their souls and their money so that they may have the garden[Heavenly Paradise]. They engage in war for the sake of Allah[ie. Allah’s Cause), so they kill and are killed…”.
Under Islam and Islamic Law, Muslims have the Legal Right and the Quranic Duty to terrorize Non-Muslims because neglecting this QURANIC DUTY is a Crime against tyrannical Allah. Jihad means warfare against Non-Muslims to ESTABLISH ISLAM’S RELIGION AS SUPREME(Quran 3:115, 151; 9:5, 29, 111; Muslim Law Manual: “Reliance of the Traveller”, o9.0 and more).
More specifically, Islam, a terroristic-totalitarian way of life, is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of: incitement, intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, segregation, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, sedition, rape, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran(Quran 2:208,216; 4:65, 89,95, 115; 5:14,64; 8:12,39,60, 74; 9:5,21,29,36, 41,49, 73,88, 111,123; 21:92; 49:15; 60:4; 61:9-11; 62:6; 89:14; etc.).

That’s why forcing the ceasefire b/w Israel & Iran was the wrong call
OLD GUY says
I wonder how the media would react to Israel arresting 700 Iranians and executing some of them. Holy Cow talk about a S–T Storm. But if the Islamic Iranian leadership does it, small print page six.
