Syria-Lebanon-Iran
One Fewer Iranian Nuclear Scientist
2011-07-23
An Iranian nuclear scientist has been shot dead outside his home in Tehran, Iranian media sources say.
Operation Lemony Snickett™ rolls on...
The Isna news agency named him as Daryoush Rezaei, 35, adding that his wife was wounded. His identity has not been officially confirmed.

In 2010, nuclear scientist Massoud Ali Mohammadi was killed by a remote-controlled bomb in Tehran. Iran blamed that attack on Israeli secret service Mossad. Israel has long warned about Iran's nuclear programme.

Some reports said the latest attack involved assailants on a motorcycle, but this has not been confirmed.

Isna said that Mr Rezaei was an expert with links to the Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran.

This week, Iran said it was installing newer and faster centrifuges at its nuclear plants, with the goal of speeding up its uranium enrichment process.

#3  Once is an accident, twice a coincidence... but after the 12th time or so, I would be more than a little suspicious.

#2  Except this one had a brain and was using it. There's never enough of them to go around, which is why intel groups always try to identify essential actors. Take out a few of those, and it could set your enemy back years.
