Hey, he has been known to do it- it was one of his agents here in America that sought out UNSCOM inspector Scott Ritter after a congressional hearing and bought him for S400,000 bucks.
And it was an Iraqi agent here in the US that sought out the dissident scientist Hamza at a university to deliver an intimidating message from Saddam Hussein.
Romania and the Soviet KGB used to fund anti-American demonstrations in Western Europe, Cuba and North Korea back some of the current "peace-protestors," so why wouldn't Iraq use its assets here in the states?
However, right before Christian activist Richard Wurmbrand left Romania he was told that if he spoke about his torturers to anyone in the US, Romanian or KGB agents would kill him or plant flase stories in the media to ruin his reputation. Fortunately, he told his story from then until his death in 2000, and he was never touched or smeared by enemy agents.
