Iranian nuke scientist accuses IAEA of sabotage
An Iranian nuclear scientist is claiming that there were explosions at two Iranian nuclear sites - Natanz and Fordow - last month. The scientist, Fereydoon Abbasi, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, also claims that the IAEA has been infiltrated by terrorists and saboteurs. Abbasi claimed the attacks were acts of sabotage, and while he did not accuse the United States or Israel of being behind them, the two countries are believed to be waging a covert war against the Iranian nuclear program, using both cyberwarfare and assassinations to disrupt their ability to build a nuclear weapon. Abbasi himself survived an assassination attempt while driving in his car two years ago. The explosions knocked out power lines to centrifuge machines, a tactic that has been used to destroy such machines at Natanz in the past. He also claimed that the International Atomic Energy Agency has been infiltrated by “terrorists and saboteurs,"Hmmm.
