The Iranian nuclear expert assassinated in Tehran on Monday was the top scientist and senior manager of Iran's nuclear effort. Majid Shahriari was killed when an explosive charge placed in his car was detonated by remote control after he climbed into the vehicle, according to a Western intelligence expert with knowledge of the operation.

Iran had to expect that. We could assassinate all their nuclear people.
They have no means to do anything about it. They could fire everyone of their Kmart missiles at Israel and not one would get by Phalanx, Aegis, Arrow, Patriot, THAAD, or the directed energy missile defense systems.
If the Iranians had any brains they would have created biological or chemical weapon systems instead of nuclear...
But what do you expect...those people can't even take their crude oil and turn it into gasoline.

I find the idea of Iran's nuclear program frightening and feel Israel has the right to take reasonable measures to protect itself. I do not think, however, that going after scientists is going to do Israel much good. Even if Israel takes out a few top scientists, there will be others who can pick up where they left off. Once a nation like Iran lets the nuclear cat out of the bag, it can never go back in.
