[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.

[Kartographer]

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

What?? They did give thought to the blow back and set it up long before that - ever hear of cyber defense? Did you ever play chess? The rag heads think about camels, while we think about sixty-four moves ahead. Thank the Lord for our military...I hope they have live coverage of Amawhatshisname pulling the lever to start the reactors...watch out for the flash...
