Iran's top cleric has blamed the CIA and Mossad, Israel's intelligence agency, for killing an Iranian nuclear scientist, Iran's state broadcaster said.
Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, who died Wednesday, was the third Iranian nuclear scientist in two years to be killed by what Iran described as a magnetic bomb attached to his car. A fourth survived a similar assassination attempt.
Roshan's death shows that "the global arrogance spearheaded by the U.S. and Zionism has reached a deadlock in confrontation with the determined, devout and progressive nation of Islamic Iran," Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was quoted as saying by the state-run Press TV.
Those responsible will not own up, Khamenei said, but the attack "has been carried out by the planning or support of CIA and Mossad [spy] services, like all other crimes of the network of international state terrorism."
Scientist death 'like script from movie'
Panetta denies U.S. involvement in death
Another Iranian nuclear scientist killed
Iran's military might in Iraq Khamenei ended his message of condolence with a warning: "We shall persist in punishing the perpetrators of this crime, as well those supporting them behind the scenes."
Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sent his condolences Friday to the families of Roshan and his driver, who also died following the attack, the state-run IRNA news agency reported. He pointed the finger at "agents of imperialism and international Zionism," a reference to Israel.

They do seem to be having a lot of accidents, incidents and random acts of highly skilled and well supplied 'street crime' lately, eh? The Iranians may just take this last one as a step too far. I must say, in reading the details of how this was done, this took real nerve. What's next? They sneak someone into Ahmadinejad's private residence to tag a hand flipping him the bird on his bathroom mirror?
Yikes... If we'd back off JUST A HAIR...maybe Iran would too.

CIA are more discret and precise .. it was probably a linked mossad cell
each time riders on bike placed the bomb quickly and run away
they are not professional ..usualy a hitman make sure the target is dead
even if he his killed in the process
1 survived on 4 .. only that tells you a lot
Source Article and More Detail
WASHINGTON - The CIA, with President Reagan's approval, organized a Middle East anti-terrorist operation that staged an unauthorized bombing attack which killed 80 people in Beirut, Lebanon, the Washington Post reported.
Members of one of the counterterrorist groups, acting without authorization from the CIA, hired others in Lebanon to detonate the car bomb outside a Beirut apartment building March 8, the newspaper said Sunday, quoting unidentified sources.

Not trying to get off topic, but I feel for these scientists, they went to school studied and are just doing their job only to get assassinated. I mean it's pretty clear who is the likely suspect behind these assassinations. smh

It's clearly mossad and cia and they have been waging a covert war on Iran for a long time...
This is a way for them to try to provoke Iran into making the first move... but Iran is smarter than that and will not budge until they are attacked...
When Israel does attack Iran overtly, then it will be a one sided war as Iran will crush israel once and for all...

Is it really?
Who has the most to gain ultimately, from instigating a war between the USA/Israel and Iran, and the certain disruption of oil supplies and, massive upward spikes in oil prices??
Both are full of it as there is no god /allah

Maybe it's all a load of crap, and a hell of a lot of people are going to die over NOTHING!

Signs that will Precede Imam Mahdi
1) A General Sign
There are many signs that will precede him, a general and very important sign is that he will come at a time when there is great confutation, intense disputes and violent deaths. When people are afflicted by disturbance and experiencing great fear. Calamities will fall upon the people, so much so that a man shall not find a shelter to shelter him self from oppression. There will be battles and fitnaas before his appearance. Every time a fitnaa has come to end, another will start, spread and intensify. The people will be troubled to such an extent that they will long for death. It is then that Imam Mahdi will be sent.
Abu Saeed Al-Khudri has repoted that the Messenger of Allah said "He will be sent at a time of intense disputes and differences among people and earthquakes..." (Ahmed)

I agree that both sides are violent... but when it comes to looking at iran and israel, I'm sorry, israel is the more violent one...
Iran has only used words, israel has acted many times on those words...
so who are you to fear more? the one with "no nukes" who threatens to drop nukes on europe because they are "anti-semetic" after showing that they can and will violate international law and bomb other countries
or the country who says they will wipe israel off the map if they are attacked by them but has not yet retaliated to the many covert acts of terrorism done to them....
in this case I would side with iran as they seem to have the cooler head on their shoulders...
