Iranian Jews are nobody's fools. I remember back when Khomeini took over, Chabad's Rabbi J.J. Hecht had to provide housing, schooling and shelter for a whole lot of Iranian kids smuggled out of the country by their parents. They knew what was coming, and Rouhani's no better.

The charm offensive continues. Now that they have won a huge strategic advantage due to the Syrian debacle, the wily mullahs will talk, present themselves as peace loving reasonable men while all the while they keep those nuclear centrifuges spinning. they know Obama will never attack. Iran will have its nuclear weapons within a year. The Iranian Jews would be fools to participate in the charade.

from Wikipedia:

On March 16, 1979, Habib Elghanian, the honorary leader of the Jewish community, was arrested on charges of "corruption", "contacts with Israel and Zionism", "friendship with the enemies of God", "warring with God and his emissaries", and "economic imperialism". He was tried by an Islamic revolutionary tribunal, sentenced to death, and executed on May 8,[23][27] one of 17 Iranian Jews executed as spies since the revolution.[28]

... Privately many Jews complain to foreign reporters of "discrimination, much of it of a social or bureaucratic nature." The Islamic government appoints the officials who run Jewish schools, most of these being Muslims and requires that those schools must open on Saturdays, the Jewish Sabbath. Criticism of this policy was the downfall of the last remaining newspaper of the Iranian Jewish community which was closed in 1991 after it criticized government control of Jewish schools. Instead of expelling Jews en mass like in Libya, Iraq, Egypt, and Yemen, the Iranians have adopted a policy of keeping Jews in Iran.[31
