FBI: Cuban Intelligence Aggressively Recruiting Leftist American Academics as Spies, Influence Agents

Sexual entrapment a common tactic

Cuba’s communist-led intelligence services are aggressively recruiting leftist American academics and university professors as spies and influence agents, according to an internal FBI report published this week.
 
Cuban intelligence services “have perfected the work of placing agents, that includes aggressively targeting U.S. universities under the assumption that a percentage of students will eventually move on to positions within the U.S. government that can provide access to information of use to the [Cuban intelligence service],” the five-page unclassified FBI report says. It notes that the Cubans “devote a significant amount of resources to targeting and exploiting U.S. academia.”
 
“Academia has been and remains a key target of foreign intelligence services, including the [Cuban intelligence service],” the report concludes.
 
One recruitment method used by the Cubans is to appeal to American leftists’ ideology. “For instance, someone who is allied with communist or leftist ideology may assist the [Cuban intelligence service] because of his/her personal beliefs,” the FBI report, dated Sept. 2, said.
 
Others are offered lucrative business deals in Cuba in a future post-U.S. embargo environment, and are treated to extravagant, all-expense paid visits to the island.

Finding communist sympathizing professors shouldn't be to hard to do.....just start swinging a stick on any campus.

Yeah. I was kinda confused on the part about Cuba having to actively go out and look for them.
