Accidents seem to be happening to these guys a lot lately.

"A university lecturer and nuclear scientist has been killed in a car explosion in north Tehran, reports say.
Iranian media sources named the casualty as Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan, an academic who also worked at the Natanz uranium enrichment facility.
The blast happened after a motorcyclist stuck an apparent bomb to the car, said Iran's semi-official Fars news agency.
Several Iranian nuclear scientists have been assassinated in recent years, with Iran blaming Israel and the US.
Both countries deny the accusations."

Given the hostility towards Iran by some of their Arabic neighbors it could have been anybody although Mossad would have to stand in the lineup.

Murder is murder. I would like to have the Iranians find the bomber and his bosses and try them all for murder no matter who they are and what country they are in. Political murder is intolerable.

Then you should be all for trying Obama for killing a US citizen accused of terrorism right?

Anyone can take a small land mine and put a magnet on the top to attach it to a car. Then trigger it with a string attached to the escaping motorcycle. That does not need great capability.

This did not require the CIA or MOSSAD but they are the likeliest. Saudi and other Mideast intelligence agencies are also capable and think they have good reason. It might have just been an ordinary murder for whatever reason but that is not as likely.

In any case it is murder just as killing civilians has always been murder. Easy to justify but still murder.

Yeah it seems that the United States and Isreal are waging a covert war against Iran. Scientist assassinations, cyber warfare, and mysterious facility bombings.
