Until it's used against us

Sounds like it was built to attack a specific type of Siemens centrifuge controller.
That and how it incrementally carried out its mission fascinates.

Gotta think that since we were supposedly in on the design, that countermeasures are in place.

But yes, another worm by an enemy will be attacking us.
Book it.

That is a pretty damn cool story! Appears to be just as effective as Israel bombing known facilities as far as set back time to the Iranian Nuke program but without the "consequence" of an all-out Middle East war.

I have been reading that Iran has fully re-armed Hezbollah and is keeping them very low key for now. They will be used as the initial fighting force once Israel goes after Iran. No doubt it will happen, just a matter of when...

**Just read some more interesting stuff from Beirut/Lebanon. Looks like Hezbollah is ready to be indicted for the assassination (Syria did it IMO) of the former PM whose son is current PM in a crumbling govt. Hezbollah is ready to take over parts of the country and Civil War is on the horizon...Middle East chaos is always brewing but initial signs of the pot ready to boil are everywhere.

Still makes me think that the entire rest of the world would be better off if the entire Middle East were turned to glass. Other than oil, what does it offer the rest of the planet but continual trouble?

Bingo.....

Salmo, if/when Iran gets a Nuke that country will be glass and possibly Syria as well. No way in hell Israel will let Iran get the bomb and stay a viable country for too long...they are assassinating every Atomic scientist they can reach and the key figure in Irans nuke program is in deep hiding right now.
