Communist agents in Iran have launched an intensive campaign against Iranian-Israeli cooperation, according to reports received here today from Teheran. Adopting the Nasser propaganda line, the Communists are accusing Israel of being an “imperialist bridgehead” in the Middle East, and charge that Israel’s activities in Iran are “fronts” for the United States Government.
The Iranian Communists are concentrating especially on the recently discussed Iranian agricultural plans involving Israeli aid in developing a large Iranian region. The Communist propagandists charge that the United States is actually financing the agricultural development projects in Iran.
