Generally speaking, when we speak about spy and espionage, our mental image returns o James Band character who takes each desirable thing aboard a Stone martin car carrying fabulous weapons and entering into the depth of intelligent and military organizations of intelligent and military organizations after a heroic battle! However, when it is spoken about spying it is rarely spoken about James Band and 007 agents or impossible missions; particularly in these periods of time when it is not needed to enter into the protected organizations in the aimed countries to gather valuable information by defalcating strange safes. In our period of time, it is adequate for a country in its aimed community to have a humane network which is quite normal with various castes particularly low-income people of all walks of life in order to extract the most strategic social, economic and cultural desirable date out of its network.
To investigate data enormously, there is a word called OSINT which is the abbreviation of the phrase Open Source intelligence which means gathering information from the free sources. Practically, the main criterion for open source data it is not needed for secret gathering methods accessing it. On the other hand, this method is the one which gathers, analyzes data acquired by the general or social overt sources.
It seems essential to know which possibility is existent for exploiting open sources. It is worthy to be mentioned that analyzing data enormously in the cyber social networks which is widespread in all humane communities is not being discussed here. In a community like Iran, establishing classic social networks was done by two consuls of the Colonialisms; that is, Russian and England since long time ago-nearly since Qajar period of time. These networks are of the most influential means in society, directing general thoughts, pursuing strategic aims and a source for gathering data. One of the prominent samples is regularizing Anglophile groups, establishing masonry loges or directing sectarian such as Baha’ism and etc. in the country.
Among the mentioned means, the hidden Baha’ism organization whose hidden nature has been behaved carelessly and been publicized restrictedly has pursued gathering data through open resources. “preservation” is the keyword of this cult for extracting data about various individuals and legal entities. The preserving group of Baha’ism is obliged to preserve, control and gather the data of all Baha’is of the world. It can be said that Baha’ism consists of a group of members who are under the extensive trainings and brainwashing since childhood; that is, three years of age and are obliged to regulate extremely strict ground rules; although it is superficially semi-religious.
In this organizational structure., each member is charged to live in the geographic position determined by the cult. Even changing the living place will lead to punishment and various reprimands if it done without the organization permission. Also the members of the organization are obligated to participate at disciplined organizational meeting called reception [Ziyafat] to announce their occupational, administrative and social issues in the meeting.
On the other side, people in charge of the cult are extracting news out of their subgroups in all layers of life including family, occupation, personal interests, status, family relationships and living conditions using various coverings such as taking measures for solving the members’ problems to give them the cult organization center in the occupied Palestine in the form of analysis packages via the intelligent services of the organization; that is, the continental advisers and counsellors and the members of proselytizing house in Haifa.
