Silverstein tells FARS Israel did it
Richard Silverstein doesn't just love attention: He craves it. And he will do anything to get it, including making baseless claims to Iran's FARS News."My own confidential Israeli source confirms today's murder was the work of the Mossad and MKO, as have been a number of previous operations I've reported here," Richard Silverstein, a senior Jewish American journalist, said in his weblog named Tikun Olam.We all know how carefully Silverstein researches his posts, don't we?
"The method recalls another series of assassinations that occurred of Fereidoun Abbassi Davani (who was seriously wounded) and his colleague Majid Shahriari (who was killed)," Silverstein said in his weblog.
He downplayed the effects of such assassinations in Iran's scientific progress, and said, "I've said it before and I'll say it every time something like this happens: assassinations like the one today accomplish nothing. It doesn't fundamentally harm Iran's nuclear program. It doesn't deter Iran or its scientists from pursuing the research and whatever scientific goals they may have. These are shameful acts by a shameful Israeli government exploiting Iranian terrorists for their own ends. I find it disgusting that Israel can get away with such acts with impunity."
"I am not a supporter of Iran's nuclear program. But I am even less a supporter of assassination as state policy, and that includes my own nation, whose president seems especially enamored of targeted killings, even of US citizens."

Assassination? What is this man going on about. That was "peaceful research into magnetic resonance devices and their applications into end-of-life medical therapy and automative framework redesign and reconstruction."
To be fair, there's a ton of Rashi this week.
