Seven years earlier, Naserani and his partner entered the South American country using Israeli passports stolen two months prior. Investigators then tied the couple to a document forgery ring stretching from Iran and Turkey into Western Europe and Britain. Argentine courts only convicted Naserani and his accomplice for smuggling and forgery, but that legal hairsplitting misses the point. This technicality underscores a far more dangerous reality: a terrorist group does not need to own a logistical network to exploit it. This way, Tehran does not need to micromanage every low-level criminal; it simply exploits a turnkey network built to deliver access.
