There is also a good possibility that someone might have *helped* them have an accident.

Both the US and Israel have been actively sabotaging Irans "non pursuit" of nuclear wheapons.

Iran lies that they aren't after nukes....and the US and Israel lie that we aren't doing stuff to try to stop it.

The custom computer virus that attacked their centerfuges and other machinery a year or so back is probably just the tip of the iceberg.

The Iranians are pretty technically competent so that's my guess but on the other hand, even the Russians who were no tech slouches blew up a big part of their space programs personnell by accident once upon a time. (We've screwed up too plenty of times.)

Oh well, we won't know the truth in our lifetime but for a second I thought "airstrike" might be possible but then considered the force of the blast would be too big for that.

I'm actually trying to imagine how a blast that big would occur at that type of facility.
