📰 What Happened
Israel launched a national anti-espionage campaign called 'Easy Money, Heavy Cost' in July 2025, warning citizens against Iranian spy recruitment. The initiative follows a 12-day war over Iran's nuclear program and discovery of over 25 Israeli recruitment cases by Iran in the past year. The Shin Bet-led campaign features videos showing how 5,000 shekel ($1,490) payments can destroy families, warning of 15-year prison sentences for cooperation with Iran.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The emergence of widespread civilian recruitment for espionage aligns with Daniel 11's prophecy of internal betrayal during end-time conflicts. The 25+ recruitment cases in 2025 following a nuclear confrontation demonstrates how Iran (ancient Persia) is fulfilling Ezekiel 38's prediction of sophisticated warfare against Israel. The specific targeting of ordinary citizens with 5,000 shekel bribes reflects Zechariah 14:13's prophecy of neighbor turning against neighbor in Jerusalem's final conflicts. This reveals how modern intelligence warfare creates the prophesied confusion and betrayal within Israel's borders.
