The following is excerpted
from Hekmati's broadcast interview:
"I was graduated from
high school in 2001 and decided to enter the US Army. It was in August 2001
that I wore the US Army uniform and underwent different military trainings of
the army". --
"When they realized
that I know a little Persian and a little Arabic, they told me: 'We want to
send you to a university to learn Arabic language.' I studied the opinions of
Iraqi officials regarding the US and the presence of US military in Iraq. Our
goal was to pinpoint those Iraqi officials who were inclined toward the US and
do something that, in case of outbreak of any incident, they support US
military. After sending our reports to US Army's intelligence department,
security and intelligence officials held secret meetings with Iraqi officials
and tried to establish closer ties with those officials."
Hekmati
then describes how, after several months in Iraq, he joined the Pentagon's
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) he worked with the Cyber
Security program.
"After DARPA, I was
recruited by Kuma Games Company, a computer games company which received money
from CIA to design and make special films and computer games to change the
public opinion's mindset in the Middle East and distribute them among Middle
East residents free of charge. The goal of Kuma Games was to convince the
people of the world and Iraq that what the US does in Iraq and other countries
is good and acceptable." -- --
In
July 2006, Hekmati claimed, he was approached by a woman who told him that she
was a "government official." She actually worked for the CIA.
"After her contact, I
successfully passed the psychological and medical tests, as well as lie
detection tests before the same CIA agent contacted me and told me that I had
to wait for their call. I was contacted by BAE Systems and I was informed that
I had to return to Iraq as an intelligence analyst. I learnt how to use secret
systems and methods for gathering information from different places and
individuals. During this period, CIA was trying to find a suitable cover-up for
my important mission." [Note: BAE Systems ,
Inc . is one of the top 10 US defense
companies, with more than 39,000 employees.]
Hekmati
stated that he was summoned the Washington Hotel in the capitol where a CIA
agent informed him that he was to go to Iran to undertake an intelligence
project.
"The CIA agent, by
giving detailed information, prepared me for my big mission, while assuring me
that, given the cover-up provided for me, I would not face any problem in the
way of conducting my mission." -- --
