Ha, now that takes me back.

Perhaps it was actually MI6 and they used a sticky bomb. :yeah:

If this is the work of mossad,which is highly likely in the wake of their previous stolen passport muder of an arab.

Do you agree with our Govt or indeed western govt's assassinating foreign nationals in their own country?

Does this type of action feed the growing hostility towards the west from the east? Therefore, creating more terroists? Is the west right to carry out whatever action they want?

[TLAM Strike]

Speaking of the CIA...

You summoned?

:O:


I think Ahmedhitler should look closer to home, there are plenty of groups in Iran would would love to knock off one of these guys. Nuc Program = IRGC; IRGC = Enemy of several separatist groups.

Of course to them anything bad that happens is America and the Jews fault... :roll:

Look at it this way: Reverse the players.

How would the United States react if a foreign national killed one of our weapon scientists?

Would we stop our weapon development program? Nah :nope:

Would we take measures to ensure the safety of our scientists and continue with renewed vigor the weapon program? Yeah :yep:

That's why attacks like this are stupid and accomplish nothing but escalation.

Agreed :yep:

[CCIP]

But if attacks like these are targeted properly, they can delay/hamper a program enough to give whoever carried it out more time to consider/delay other options. MOSSAD have been masters of this previously, and certainly did delay Iraqi programs by targeted assasinations. :hmmm:

But in the end they did still have to send in the IAF and level the place. :yep:

True. But I said 'delay', not 'shut down'. Certainly in that case, the time they bought was valuable, even for getting IAF that strike capability.

Alright, now tell me that Israel can't pull whatever sneaky thing they like on Iran :haha:

So if it was reversed people would be condemning it as terrorism and saying how putting a bomb on a car in traffic is showing a complete disregard for innocent people.
Then if it was shown that it was a State that was behind the murder it would be a State sponsor of terrorism which means its a really evil State which must be regime changed.

Excellent point
