"Report: Mysterious blast in Iran's Isfahan damaged key nuclear site
London Times quotes Israel intelligence officials as saying that satellite images show this week's reported blast in Isfahan was 'no accident.'"

No....squirrels. They are very mischievous little rodents. One took one a very large transformer in a small town where I used to live. I believe that they have upgraded to bigger things these days.

I would like to think that the CIA and our Allies intelligence agencies are doing their jobs and took out the site. Hard to imagine Pinetta having anything to do with such a sensible operation though.

I'm sure Mossad had absolutely nothing to do with it

Yeah, like when he put on a Navy Seal uniform and low crawled in to get OBL? What's gutsy about allowing our brave military to do their job?

This was first reported as a blast at an ammo dump.

Then it turns out it was supposed to have taken place while a test missile was being fueled up. This could be.

It has also come to light that an Iranian General was among those killed. He also was in charge of the Military nuclear operation.

Iran first blamed it on a 'computer malfunction'.

Obama has offered to be friends with Iran and has advised them that they were making a mistake to continue on with their nuclear program. I wonder if this is what he was talking about?

Logical precedent certainly exists for it.

The Iranian pm Ahmedinejad has certainly publicly threatened to "wipe Israel off the face of the map"

From wikipedia:

On June 7, 1981, a flight of Israeli Air Force F-16A fighter aircraft, with an escort of F-15As, bombed and heavily damaged the Osirak reactor. Israel claimed it acted in self-defense, and that the reactor had "less than a month to go" before "it might have become critical." Ten Iraqi soldiers and one French civilian were killed.
