Sometimes, “martyrdom” is worth celebrating

Good hunting, Mossad- Doing the jobs that Americans won’t do

He may have been passing on secrets, but if he was, certainly they would not of killed him without intensive interrogations first. So that is out. Mossad? Most likely, and PBO will condemn them for their action shortly.

Maybe the Israelis are taking their program down one scientist at a time.

I hope CIA, MI5, and/or Mossad was responsible

Since we didn't read about this a week before it was supposed to happen in the NYT I doubt the CIA was involved. More likely Mossad I would think.

I have an another theory. His bookie let him make a teaser bet in the Arizona-Green Bay, and he took the “Under” at 95 points. He couldn’t pay up, so...

That was one of my first thoughts, but as has been further revealed, *this* particular scientist was not part of the Iranian Nuke program, but a teacher at a college and a public supporter of the opposition movement. It makes much more sense that this was a killing sanctioned by the Iranian hardliners and carried out by the Iranian secret police, who wanted to make it look like it was carried out by the “enemy”. Two birds as it were. Making for further justification for their brutal crackdown.

Besides *they* are the ones who have the explosives and who’s Hizballah forces, Quods fgforces, and imported Lebanese thugs sent by Nasrallah, to beat the Iranian people, are the ones who are trtained in such murder attacks.

Mossad can certainly touch such a person. Many Persian
speakers in Israel, and many willing proxies in the opposition to do legwork.

I think it’s much more likely that this is the regime killing its own

I think his occupation is key here.

He was neither a nuclear physicist nor a regime supporter

If you bomb physical facilities they will rebuild them.

If you kill key personnel they wait until more graduate from university...

As you can see, photographs of the motorcycle show no evidence that this was an Israel motorcycle. Abslutely false rumor. No basis in fact.
