A book about this virus, its creators and its implementation is something I’d really like to read someday. Awesome stuff.

The New York Times reported rather conclusively

Is that supposed to mean something?

So how did Iran’s computers get infected? Did someone there open a spam viagra e-mail in the nuclear facilities?

Unlike “others”, No innocents were harmed in this attack. I wonder if Iran would make sure no innocent civilians were harmed in an attack on Israeli nuke plant?

Of course, the Old Gray Whore MUST complete the job its philosophical master, Hitler, began.

Godwin’s law be damned — the NYT won’t be satisfied until Israel is destroyed and every Jew on earth removed.

And the NY Jews will continue to use Mitzvah to mask Holocaust, even after the prior generation encountered the latter.

They should have downloaded the free version of AVG anti-virus.

If the Iranian leader, Amanutjob, believes this yarn, isn't he likely to plan an attack of some sort on our country as well as Israel ?
Somehow, I don't believe we were were involved because it would be to our advantage to solve the “Iran Problem” without starting the Last World War. Some folks just don't get it, a nuclear shootout can not be won by anyone.

The New York Times reported rather conclusively on Saturday that the super-advanced computer virus that has at least partially crippled Iran’s nuclear program was developed and tested by Israel, with American involvement.

Didn't the New York Times or some folks that work there report that Sarah Palin is the real culprit in Tucson? It would be better if some other paper reported something 'conclusively.' The NYT is incapable of concluding much of anything.

A secondary effect will be the loss of productivity the Iranians cause themselves. No-doubt they have, are, and will continue to implement draconian security measures to ensure they do not fall victim to something like this again. Not only do these procedures burn resources directly, these kinds of things tend to have serious negative effects on moral and productivity.

The beautiful part is, there is no-way Iran can avoid this second (ary) hit. If they don't take extreme measures, they will get hit again by a cyber attack. If they do take extreme measures, they can (maybe) protect themselves, at the cost of productivity. Either way, we win, they lose.

Yawn!!

Even if it was TESTED by Israel it still dont mean that they even had a hand in creating it and besides just how can the NY Slimes prove that Israel even had contact in developing and/or testing it?

This is just the usual anti-Semite smear from the the left.

Wouldn’t it have been better if all this had been kept secret. Aren’t we just setting our selves up as a target by rubbing their noses in it.

Glad to know the news just not sure if I needed to know.

The NYT is a super-retarded virus designed to attack the US of A.

I am so happy anytime anything bad happens to the current Iranian regime. I wish their entire military would self immolate. Iran has attacked the U.S. over and over again and we never do anything about it. They have done far more evil to us than Saddam ever did.

It was interesting how that virus worked. I just assumed it attacked their computers and wondered why they could not just replace them. Glad to know it destroyed their equipment too.

Here’s hoping for Stuxnet II and Stuxnet III to be launched against Iran’s nuke program. Also for more of their nuke scientists to ‘meet Allah’ via explosives taped to car winshields.

I hope the crazy Persian dictators are scared to death thinking that other critical systems throughout Iran are similarly infected by other tailor made viruses. If one can be crafted in such a manner to remain undetected and specific to a task, what other “enemies” of Israel and the West could be dealt catastrophic blows in the future, with systems ranging from nuclear facilities to infrastructure to military capabilities.

It’s a new world.

You can bet China or Russia is working on the same thing to use against us someday.
