November 17, 2011: Was this another Israeli attack on Iran? On November 12th, Iran lost the general in charge of its ballistic missile program, Hassan Moghadam. He died in a munitions storage site outside the capital, along with 16 other Iranians, when something exploded, leading to many other explosions. All the victims were members of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, and Moghadam was a major general.
At first, the incident was blamed on an accident, even though such catastrophes are often blamed on Israel or the United States. In the last few years, Iran has been less inclined to do that, because they have been taking more losses in their nuclear and missile programs. Key people are being killed, and several computer based attacks (like Stuxnet) did serious damage to nuclear and missile facilities.
Israel is also believed responsible for so many more Iranian weapons smuggling operations being revealed, and prosecuted. As much as Iran liked to blame Israel, they do not want Iranians to believe that the Israelis were that successful.
Within days of the explosion that killed general Moghadam, stories began circulating that the Israeli secret service (Mossad) was behind the explosion. Could Mossad have done it? Could Mossad have gained access to the munitions storage site and caused the explosion and planted a device that would have triggered the "accident"? They could.

In warfare, uncertainty in the mind of the enemy is priceless. If I had to choose between Israeli cunning and Persian incompetence, it would be hard to decide.
>>>That first night’s Battle of Latakia (Syria) is still studied in naval colleges. Outnumbered and outranged, the Israelies destroyed the Syrian missile boats in the world’s first missile vs. missile naval combat. In 6 years, the Fighting Jews applied their brain power, and leapfrogged ahead of the Soviet state of the art.
NEVER underestimate the Israelis. They are very smart, and their backs are against the wall.<<<
As a Jew... you made me smile this morning. Thanks.
As a fighting gentile, I’m proud to be the friend of many fighting jews.
My next novel will involve an old patrol boat, so I just reread “The Boats of Cherbourg” subtitled “The secret Israeli operation that revolutionized naval warfare” by Abraham Rabinovich, 1988, Naval Institute Press. Used copies are available on Amazon. It will make you very proud of your country.

Great comment! LOL, so true!
I have heard this, too, from an Iranian ex-pat here in the U.S.
I think these guys are Jewish Ninjas.....
Ever see the movie Persepolis? If so, what did you think?

Stealthy drones exist today, most composite drones don’t have much of a radar signature.
Israel already has a smart bomb not much bigger than a hand grenade (got bigger ones as well).
Making something go bump in the night anywhere in the Mideast with no apparent cause is already a reality for Israel.
