Could be that he had too much U-439 in his tea.

Love it. Subtle. Let the Iranians spin it one way then drop the dime on them.

Excellent!!!

This is the right approach.

Scientists working on illegal nuclear programs should be declared enemy combatants, subject to assassination and other military options.

Start with the head of the octopus, not the tentacles.

'Hello? Mr. Ahmadinutjob? We have a special delivery package for you from a "U.R. Dedmeet", in Tel Aviv?'

'No Mr. Ahmadinutjob, we cannot leave it around back at your well, you have to sign for this package. You'll be right down? Very good.'

I assume each time a headline scrolls across it would be a fresh item. Might have missed some threads, though, the toll might be much higher.

This is a fabulous way to go about undermining their nuke development plan and still maintaining plausible deniability.
It is a fact that anything that goes wrong in the mullah's world is a Zionist conspiracy and work of the Mossad. Might as well just play to the anti-semitic stereotype and actually do what they have been accused of doing for so long.
I hope one top level nuke person gets knocked off each day top send a clear signal.
BTW, I figure that the UN has to be holding an emergency meeting right away to condemn dirty Israel and their partner in crime the USA. UN out of the US now more than ever.

This is interesting.

However, I can't help but wonder if Iran killed him themselves .. maybe because he wouldn't cooperate in building nukes ..??

And .. what better place to lay the blame: Israel!

And .. does that now give Iran a REASON to attack Israel ..??

I personally don't see anything wrong with killing Iranian nuke weapons scientists 5 times in a row to be absolutely, *postively* sure that they're really, REALLY 'GRAVEYARD DEAD' (as the late Jerry Clower might say ;)
