Many analysts claim that the inspection of Iran’s military sites is the most challenging issue in following days in the P5+1 talks with Iran and the path to reach any possible final agreement.

Regarding the inspections, there have been so severe and serious discussions and concerns among the pros and cons of the talks in Iran. The main standpoint was adopted by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei who said recently “we will not allow foreigners to carry out inspections of any [Iranian] military sites.”

Last week, Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and his deputy Abbas Araqchi had also a very tough day in a closed-door session of the Parliament in which some of the opposition MPs blamed them for accepting the inspections and accused them of giving so many advantages to the P5+1 against the national interests.

And though, Abbas Araqchi, the top Iranian nuclear negotiator, declined accepting inspections of Iran’s military sites as part of a deal with the P5+1, one of the MPs called Zarif a traitor for according to what he said, has accepted the ultra international inspections of Iran’s military sites.

But the question is why Iran’s Supreme Leader, MPs, experts and even the Iran’s negotiation team itself definitely are uneasy to the inspections.

A pundit in the camp of the P5+1 may conclude that Iran surely have something to hide not to be discovered by the inspections, but this argument is ill-prepared, for the case of military sites in all around the world is a very top secret matter and no country is likely to accept such a demand.

Therefore it is very humiliating and unwise for a country like Iran which is under permanent threat of military attacks by the United States and Israel, his top ally in the region, to allow such inspections.

Accordingly, Mr. Araqchi, the deputy foreign minister for legal and international affairs, has stated in the recent closed door session of the parliament that both he and Zarif had expressed opposition to any inspection of military sites.

Meanwhile there is a very vast, shameful and undeniable record of U.S. spying efforts under the cover of inspections in past decades, especially in Iraq which pushes Iran to the path of not accepting the inspections.

The records belong to pre-U.S. invasion era in which U.S. managed spying of Iraq’s military sites by the name of UNSCOM inspectors.

If one reviews the U.S. front-page investigative stories during the last two decades about the UN spying scandal it will be revealed that the CIA had covertly used UN weapons inspectors, known as UNSCOM, to spy on Iraq for the U.S. intelligence purposes.

There are many examples of these kind of shameful examples which lead Iranian officials to be very cautious about the true intention of the U.S. and the other Western members of the P5+1. Here are just two examples of the truth about the inspectors which were published in the New York Times and Washington post.

“United States officials said today that American spies had worked undercover on teams of United Nations arms inspectors,” the New York Times reported (1/7/99). And the other, according to the Washington Post (3/2/99), the U.S. “infiltrated agents and espionage equipment for three years into United Nations arms control teams in Iraq to eavesdrop on the Iraqi military, without the knowledge of the UN agency.”

So derived from these facts of UN spying scandal which are very renowned and very enlightening, the question is going to be that why Iran should trust U.S. and accept such inspectors and let them to come visiting its military sites
