Security forces arrested a 58-year-old Israeli-Arab on suspicion of being recruited by Iran in order to infiltrate Israel's political system.
The suspect, Jaris Jaris, resides in the northern Israel village of Fasuta, which is mostly populated by Christians; he even served as the village council’s head.
It is suspected that Iranians plotted to have Jaris transfer intelligence information obtained through his political connections in exchange for a hefty sum of money. They hoped he would be able to become an MK and continue to transfer vital information to Iran.
Jaris was detained by security forces on December 12, 2005 on suspicion of being recruited to Iran’s intelligence service with the intent of gathering classified information that would be harmful to Israel if transferred to Iran.
The State Prosecutor’s Office plans to file an indictment against him soon. “The interrogation of Jaris reveals severe Iranian espionage activity against Israel to obtain classified internal information in a bid to influence the actions of Israeli governing bodies,” a security source said.

I wouldn't be surprised to discover that most major nations with elective officials have some who have been preened and planted by not-so-friendly nations or concerns.
Where do their interests seem to lie? Where does their support seem to come from? What issues to they decry and what do they support?
The average voters knows very little about whom they elect or what that person really support. The only vetting is the election process, and it doesn't always give forth the 'best' candidates.
