Stuxnet Saves Israel Trouble of Iran Strike

December 15, 2010 - 11:07 AM | by: Leland Vittert (http://liveshots.blogs.foxnews.com/author/lvittert/) It appears the Stuxnet computer virus may have done more harm to Iran's nuclear program than even the most savage of air strikes could have.
A report in the Jerusalem Post (http://www.jpost.com/IranianThreat/News/Article.aspx?id=199475)quotes a German computer expert saying the "Stuxnet" virus set Iran's nuclear program back two years.
Fox News ecently reported how the Stuxnet virus attacked the nuclear centrifuges at Iran's main uranium enrichment site in Natanz (http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/11/26/secret-agent-crippled-irans-nuclear-ambitions/) and how Tehran is scrambling to fix computers attacked by the virus. (http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/12/09/despite-iranian-claims-stuxnet-worm-causing-nuclear-havoc/)
But the reported delay in Iran's suspect nuclear program is huge news in Israel where leaders here have been sounding the alarm about the program which most of the world believes is aimed at producing a nuclear bomb.
Israel took unilateral military action to destroy nuclear production facilities in Iraq and Syria but have so far held off on a military strike against Iran's extensive facilities.
“Just to get their systems running again they have to get rid of the virus, and this will take time, and then they need to replace the equipment, and they have to rebuild the centrifuges at Natanz and possibly buy a new turbine for Bushehr,” the Post quoted the German who they say has direct knowledge of the virus and the damage done.
Meir Javendanfar a professor of Iranian studies and author of a leading biography of the Iranian President was more cautious in his analysis.
"We need to wait a while to find out exactly how much power has been caused."
However he continued whomever pulled the attack created the perfect storm without getting their hands dirty.
"This is the worst case senerior for the Islamic Republic of Iran," he said. "This is an absoulte nightmare. They would much rather war because they could use the war to rally the public around the flag and boost their popularity."
So far its unclear how the powerful virus made its way into the computers that control uranium enrichment and other key parts of the program, but Iran is pointing the finger at Israel and Western powers.

Iran Threat to Kill American Generals Is Real, Experts Say

A leader of Iran (http://www.foxnews.com/topics/world/iran.htm#r_src=ramp)’s powerful Revolutionary Guard is promising that American generals will be targeted and killed in revenge for last week's attacks on two of his country's leading nuclear scientists -- a threat Middle East experts say must be taken seriously.
In a speech published in Farsi at an Iranian website linked to the Revolutionary Guard, Brig. Gen. Mohammad Reza Naghdi was quoted as saying that “the filthy Americans and the Zionists should not think that with killing our scientists, they can divert our nation from its path of Jihad and scare us.”
He continued with a specific threat: “We will mark the hanging sites of the American and Zionist generals and we will identify which hanging was in retaliation for the blood of our great martyr Shahriari.”
Naghdi, commander of the Revolutionary Guard's Basij Forces, was referring to Dr. Majid Shahriari, a leading Iranian nuclear scientist who was reportedly heading efforts to fight the Stuxnet virus that has crippled Iran’s nuclear program. Both Shahriari and another leading scientist, Fereidoun Abbasi, were targeted in simultaneous attacks last week in Tehran. As the men were driving to work, motorcyclists pulled up to their cars and attached magnetic explosive devices to them. The attackers drove off as the bombs exploded.
Shahriari was killed instantly; Abbasi, who was personally sanctioned by the United Nations (http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/united-nations.htm#r_src=ramp) for his part in the nuclear program, was wounded but managed to escape.
Reza Kahlili, a former CIA spy who left Iran first discovered the comments, said "that the United States should be concerned about this threat." Jim Phillips, an expert on Middle East (http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/middle-east.htm#r_src=ramp) Policy for the Heritage Foundation (http://www.foxnews.com/topics/the-heritage-foundation.htm#r_src=ramp), and Alireza Nader, an expert in Iran’s leadership at the RAND Corporation, said Iran often makes outlandish threats, but they agreed that this one has to be taken as a serious and credible threat because it came directly from Naghdi.
“It is significant that this commander made specific threats,” Nader said. “Usually these threats are taken with a grain of salt, but there is a history of the Iranian regime retaliating against U.S. forces in a covert manner, especially in Iraq (http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/supplemental-spending.htm#r_src=ramp).”
But a Department of Defense spokesman said the military was not aware of the threat. “I have not heard those threats; DOD is not going to respond to such comments," said Maj. Chris Perrine, a public affairs officer. "Regarding security, we take appropriate security measures according to circumstances and are confident that our security posture in the region is appropriate.”
Both Phillips and Nader said that the most likely place for an attack to occur would be Iraq, and any attack would most likely be carried out by surrogates working for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
“The Revolutionary Guards have been in Iraq since the 1980s and they have an extensive network there,” Phillips said.
While Nader agreed that Iraq was the place Iran was most likely to strike, he also suggested that Bahrain, Qatar and other Gulf states would also allow the Iranian general to carry out the threat.

Да - Ахмадинеджад с Медведевым опять "дружат" уже больше месяца. И по разделу Каспийского моря о чём-то в Баку договорились. :wink1:
А ещё миролюбивейшего Ахмадинеджада интересует уран в Армении и Грузии.

Ну, тогда ладно...

Смотри - чтобы иранское радиоактивное облако после подводного испытания их "дивайса" на Астраханский заповедник не понесло. :wink1:
Ахмадинеджад заявил , что хакеров , виновных в инциденте , выявили и наказали. А программа продвигается дальше. Там где-то в теме "Барби завоевала Иран" есть ( при активной поддержке России продвигается ).
