An explosion on Wednesday killed Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, a top official at the Natanz uranium enrichment plant, Iranian officials said.
He is the third man identified as a nuclear scientist to be killed in Iran in a mysterious explosion in the past two years. A fourth survived an assassination attempt.
In each case, someone placed a bomb under the scientist's car.
Iranian officials, on state-run media, blame Israel and the United States.
"I want to categorically deny any United States involvement in any kind of act of violence inside Iran," U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Wednesday.
"We believe there has to be an understanding between Iran, its neighbors and the international community that finds a way forward for it to end its provocative behavior, end its search for nuclear weapons and rejoin the international community and be a productive member of it," she said.
While Israel generally refuses to comment on accusations and speculation , Brig. Gen. Yoav Mordechai, a spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces, said on his Facebook page Wednesday, "I have no idea who targeted the Iranian scientist but I certainly don't shed a tear."

That's an image I could have passed up.
How much courage does it take to order someone to kill another?
Mitch Rapp of course!
I think using assassination as a policy tool fits in the Democratic way of thinking on national policy. They don’t like spending money on conventional forces, but spies and special forces have two benefits; they’re cheaper as a whole than conventional forces and there are fewer casualties. JFK thought this way.
The Swiss method works for me. I would rather see generals, etc get killed than our troops.
And that is why we still have a Castro in power in Cuba.

This is a good example of asymetrical warfare. They build a nuclear arsenal, the other side rents a couple of motor scooters and wires about $20 worth of explosives to a handful of cars. Somebody is learning their lessons very well.

Reap and sow.
LOL. I had to think for a minute. Who knew Vince Foster was an Iranian nuke scientist?
Were they found on a park bench?
You choices are the following:
1. Killer Clause: Because those Iranians have been very bad.
2. Remo Williams: Assassination is the highest form of
public service.
3. Bigfoot: Hey, he’s gotta be somewhere.
4. Uncle Fengie: your friendly neighborhood kosher deli owner.
5. Klingon kill klub: No explanation needed.
I vote for Mitch Rapp!!
Kodos to them whomever they are.
If I told you.....well, you know the rest.
“Who’s killing Iranian nuclear scientists?”
The Mossad.
"...I hesitate to place blame, but I have noticed it take a very precipitous turn towards edginess and lack of civility with the growth of the Tea Party movement."
Obviously more than you think it does.
