Parting Gift From Bush: Stuxnet Cyber Nuke

The movie version is going to be great! Hot Air went way back to the Bush days and found an NYT report about Bush’s orders to find new covert ways to keep Iran’s nuclear program from progressing.

"When President George W. Bush ordered new ways to slow Iran’s progress toward a nuclear bomb last year, he approved a plan for an experimental covert program — its results still unclear — to bore into their computers and undermine the project."

Actually, the results are becoming quite clear. The joint U.S./Israeli team effort produced Stuxnet, the clever little cyberworm that is wreaking havoc with Iran’s centrifuges. Allahpundit at Hot Air:

"The worm itself now appears to have included two major components. One was designed to send Iran’s nuclear centrifuges spinning wildly out of control. Another seems right out of the movies: The computer program also secretly recorded what normal operations at the nuclear plant looked like, then played those readings back to plant operators, like a pre-recorded security tape in a bank heist, so that it would appear that everything was operating normally while the centrifuges were actually tearing themselves apart."

All without a single shot being fired.

Just to prove that even a blind squirrel will find an acorn once in awhile, the current president approved going forward with the plan.

And it’s not over yet. Stuxnet is still working it’s magic, causing chaos and embarrassment to the Iranian regime. Don’t bother calling tech support in India. Bush’s nukular strategery seems to be working.

Awesome if true!
What a great job it would be to work on something like this in the defense industry!

And those pro-terrorist socialist metrosexuals of the Nobel travesty can stick their prize where the sun doesn’t shine!

God Bless you Dubya!
