A second spy was caught in just a few months time from the fall of Al Attar. But this time he is a nuclear power engineer who was about to hack the computer system of the Egyptian Nuclear Agency for Israel. Click here to read details>>
I watched a reportage on Al Jazeera yesterday, where they've interviewed his neighbours and his mother. I was shocked to see the place where this engineer who has such a sensitive position lives. It is a very poor place, and his neighbours (no offence meant) are very low class people. It is also clear from his published photo that he is not young (I am totally against publishing photos of suspects before a trial proves they are guilty), but we learn that he still lives with his parents in this place, which means he was financially unable to get married or have a better residence.
I'm not implying that he has any excuse for what he has done (if he is found guilty). But for God's sake, what are those people thinking? How can a person in this position be suffering from a poverty that will make him so vulnerable in front of any temptation? Do they have any common sense? What do they expect? Human beings are not angels. You need to at least secure the basic human conditions if you really care about the security of this facility.
Now, what's the result? Yes, he is caught, but it is a blow on our faces. It is another scare that we will carry in our hearts and wound that shall remain to pose the question: Who's next?

"How can a person in this position be suffering from a poverty that will make him so vulnerable in front of any temptation?"
low wages is one of the main reasons behind corruption and bribery (besides of course lack of conscious!).
Ma-3lina:
Yeah, it is really sad. And what you heard on TV is apparently what drew the attention of the Egyptian intelligence to track him down.
It is such a pity that instead of him working on the technological advancement of his country he just goes to help the enemy. Can person go that far to achieve personal gains?
Fadfadation:
I agree with you. Poverty makes people lose dignity and loyalty to their country. This engineer is not only taking much less than his counterpart in Israel, he is suffering from low quality of life.
Again that's no excuse for him, but I believe if he had the basic needs which enables him to dream about a possible better future, may be it would have been more difficult for them to lure him in.
