I question the timing of this article ... but not it’s intent.

"Nuclear Terror" ping.

Ping list covering atomic/nuclear/thermonuclear terrifying events and discussions.

FReepmail me if you want on or off The Comedian's "Nuclear Terror" ping list...

I didn't say for whom.

[M. Dodge Thomas]

Gee whiz, do you suppose that the Iranians might run and sue somebody over this?

What?

You think we are living in some sort of impregnable Truman Show dome?

You think that the Iranians are primitive idiots, incapable of cyber-warfare?

The more technological the society, the more subject it is to this sort of attack, and the more open your society, the more open you are to this sort of attack.

This was an *invitation* to asymmetric electronic warfare, and considering the cost we are already incurring from the "conventional" sort in places like Afghanistan, you would have though we would have given a bit more thought (assuming this was our creation) to the potential blowback, especially considering at all this did was buy a bit of time without fundamentally improving the situation.

[Oldpuppymax]

We can only hope this is true. I’d enjoy seeing Iranians begin to glow in the dark.

Yes, only a part of the worm viruns was operatibve. It is a sleeper worm, waiting for the reactor to go on line and then....Chernobyl Checkmate!!!

You have to love those Norwegian hackers hired by the Mossad, and they didn’t even leave home to git ‘er done!Obama is having fits about it.

[Quix]

Given that OArrogance likes BJ’s so much . . .

perhaps we could enlist a giant worm for his . . . pleasure?

Call Dune!

[Kartographer]

You are right we should have just "Nuke the site from orbit it was the only way to make sure."

[TheOldLady]

You’d have to call Paul Atreides (Muad’Dib). He’s the mover and shaker on Dune, literally and literately.

If only we could get a nice virus into the vast left-wing conspiracy that Hillary admitted in her famously projected fantasy when she mentioned a vast right-wing conspiracy. Oooh, was her slip showing!

[Quix]

Oh right.

Thx.

I don’t think my Trak phone reaches that far.

[Quix]

Oh right.

Thx.

[TheOldLady]

LOL! Just wait until we find the Star Gate, and we’ll be all set. ;-D

[Quix]

Some claim there’s one by the Gulf of Aden.

I vote we send Shrillery through first . . .

WITHOUT the return code.

You are describing an "Alinsky Positron".

I love it.

[The Comedian]

Stuxnet = worm targeted at sand empire of Iran. Sand + Worm :-)

"Alinsky Positron"

LOL! I love it.

[TheOldLady]

Why would she need a return code? She’d probably love to go back to her own “people.”

[Triple]

My guess - the USA had a big role in this. ( I am a good guessed.)

They ought to thank us, because the alternative was a huge bombing raid.

We took risk to show constraint.

Anyone in a leadership position would recognize this fact. There lives may depend on that recognition.

——Sand + Worm = Muad’Dib

The empire of the Spice will be taken down

Muad’Dib will lead the way

Well for one a nuclear power reactor doesn’t spin like a centrifuge. You’re talking apples and oranges when you try to compare the two.
