Report: Mossad behind Iran nuke scientist's death
I've written twice about the premature death of Iranian nuclear scientist Darioush Rezaie two weeks ago. Now Germany's Der Spiegel has come out and blamed the Mossad. "Israel is not responding," Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said earlier this week when asked if his country had been involved in the latest slaying of an Iranian nuclear scientist. It didn't exactly sound like a denial, and the smile on his face suggested Israel isn't too bothered by suspicions that it is responsible for a series of murders of physicists involved in the controversial Iranian nuclear program.But Der Spiegel hints none-too-subtly that the spate of assassinations of nuclear scientists (this is the third one in the last year and a half) is not the only arrow in Israel's quiver.
There is little doubt in the shadowy world of intelligence agencies that Israel is behind the assassination of Darioush Rezaei. "That was the first serious action taken by the new Mossad chief Tamir Pardo," an Israeli intelligence source told SPIEGEL ONLINE.
Until now, Mossad experts have been able to convince decision-makers that the construction of an Iranian bomb can best be delayed through attacks on key figures and nuclear facilities. But it is unclear how long Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will continue to follow this advice. Politicians in Jerusalem know well that Mossad is also pursuing its own interests when it argues that its agents should play the leading role in the struggle against Iran.Heh.
"As long as Mossad is leading the fight against the bomb, it will get the big budgets," said the source. Whether there will be an open attack on Iran's nuclear facilities in the future will partly depend on whether the Israeli military or intelligence wins the internal power struggle, the source said. "Just like with everything, this is also about prestige."

Seriously, Germans, get a life. You think the various Israeli agencies are undermining the Iranian program that wants them DEAD TOMORROW in order to compete for prestige? RUFKM? The Israelis who are inventing the cures to almost every biomedical issue?
Remember, two things, Israel... some percentage of Euros and Russians are following the Jews who escaped their slaughter down to Israel. They co-opt Israel's neighbors to finish the job. Secondly, another swath of Euros and Russians, who are high tech and competent, and could shame and possibly stop that first group of sick anti-semites, are sitting silent. Why? Because they envy the Israelis scientific and technological success. So, in their own way, they have co-opted the anti-semites to harass Israel, attempting to block their success. Israel's technologists make every body else look like slackers.
The current world order is founded on coveting and attempting to confiscate success. Equal opportunity is not good enough and the marxist caliphate brigade thinks the Fair thing to do is to cut down success, since they don't have the initiative to succeed themselves...
