BBC: The US has condemned the killing of an Iranian nuclear scientist in a car bomb attack in north Tehran. National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor said the US "had absolutely nothing to do" with the attack. Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan, who worked at the Natanz uranium enrichment facility, died along with the driver of the car. "The United States had absolutely nothing to do with this. We strongly condemn all acts of violence, including acts of violence like this," said Mr Vietor >>>

Another possibility...
by Siavash300 on Wed Jan 11, 2012 06:44 PM PSTThe guy may have given some important information to outside world and stinky mullahs wanted to put him in silence. Who know?
another possibility; None of these "scientists" were killed :)
by Anonymous Bugger on Thu Jan 12, 2012 04:52 AM PSTThey were all given a fake funeral, tons of cash & a secluded villa in shomal & told to stfu for a few yrs so the hajis can do some PR. ::)).

Open cases in history. Reasonable doubt persists:
by Disenchanted on Wed Jan 11, 2012 06:20 PM PST1- Did Apollo landed on the moon?
2- Was Al Qaeda behind atrocities of 9/11?
3-Is Elvis really dead?
4- Is Israel behind murders of Iranian scientists?
5- Was Alexander the great a male?
6- Does Earth goes around the sun?
7- Is falling from 1000 feet kills a man?!
Folks I have suspended judgment in all the aforementioned cases as there is not enough proof. One has to be diligent prior to expressing an opinion.
Deny involvement but do not condemn?!
by Disenchanted on Wed Jan 11, 2012 06:40 PM PSTThose who attribute these kind of crimes to pretty much everyone and everything except the true and clear culprit, Israel, may want to consult with "Google" to realize Israel has been doing this for decades in many of a Middle Eastern coutries, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq etc....

Still no proof
by Veiled Prophet of Khorasan on Wed Jan 11, 2012 06:07 PM PSTWith all the claims and so on nobody has any proof. I have seen nothing but guesses. No available is able to tell us what happened.
Nevertheless I already said. Let us assume this was done by a foreign power. Why did they do it? The motive is obviously a response to IRI and its behavior. So however you view this IRI has a responsibility. They are putting people in danger.
If they acted civilized Iran would not be a target nor would the people.
دانشگاه آریامهر شریف!
FaramarzWed Jan 11, 2012 05:48 PM PST
That's what most graduates of Daneshgaah Sanati call it!
And to understand what bright Iranian students think of the Regime and the Basij, just ask anyone who went to major universities in Iran in the past 20 years.
Despite all their efforts, the Iranians reject Basij, Sepah and the Regime like a foreign organ.

To The Staunch Defender Of The Regime!
by G. Rahmanian on Wed Jan 11, 2012 05:37 PM PSTAs opposed to your stupidly self-righteous claims, I have never claimed to know it ALL and have ALL the information. And I have never even tried to convince anyone of anything. You need to attend an anger-management immersion course. Let's hope it'll hep you!!!
Correction! It's Aryamehr NOT Sharif!
by Oon Yaroo on Wed Jan 11, 2012 05:34 PM PSTSharif was a terrorist!
Oh yeah
by Mammad on Wed Jan 11, 2012 05:30 PM PSTAnyone but Israel/U.S./MEK!
The bright Sharif student is at stanford, MIT, .... getting his Ph.D. And, one reason that he/she is bright is because he/she is peaceful and does not believe in violence.
Israel's chief of staff Benny Gantz said yesterday to Israel's parliament that "in 2012 Iran should expect more unnatural things happen to it," and our compatriots search for the assassins among the bright Sharif students, or want proof for something done by the shadowey intelligence agents and their collaborators!
The mountains of illusion about U.S./Israel are evaporating, but these people still do not see it!

"staunch defender of the murderous regime to crawl out from.."
by Oon Yaroo on Wed Jan 11, 2012 05:32 PM PSTWhy don't these staunch defenders of the murderous regime offer a simple advice to their VF and his fack o famil that it's time to pack your bar o bandil and get the hell out...! Haven't they stolen enough? Their timer is up!
The criminal IRR regime and its supporters are pushing Iran to the verge of a war that will turn that country to the stone age!
As I said
by Mammad on Wed Jan 11, 2012 05:23 PM PSTDom-e khorous az laaye aba oomadeh biroon, and the turncoats are showing their true colours.
So, before implusively "responding," first read what I said, ponder about it, and then open your mouth, so to speak. Anyone that agrees with your nonsense is a democrat, and anyone who is not is a defender of the bloody VF regime. Yeah, right!
Mammad
A Reasonable Suspect Ari!
by Faramarz on Wed Jan 11, 2012 05:21 PM PSTAri,
I tend to agree with you as far as this was not done by the Regime. The level of shock and dismay by the different organs and the sites of the Regime illustrates to me that the assassination was a surprise to the Regime as well. This guy was a hardcore Basiji, the kind that harasses women students, put men students in jail and clubber the likes of Neda Agha Soltan.
Given the amount of hate for the Regime and the Basij inside Iran, this can be a local job by the bright Sharif graduate students who can quickly put a magnetic bomb together and ride a motorcycle.
It Was About Time!
by G. Rahmanian on Wed Jan 11, 2012 05:06 PM PSTIt Was About Time for the staunch defender of the murderous regime to crawl out from under the mullahs' robes and once again stupidly defend them!
IRI not a reasonable suspect
by Ari Siletz on Wed Jan 11, 2012 04:59 PM PSTThere are quieter ways of getting rid of an insider than planting a bomb on his car, making headlines across the world and looking like you are unable to protect your own.
Who said this memorable line in what movie? "It's amazing how he [the murder victim] fell perfectly onto the drawing on the floor."
Dom-e khoroos az laaye abaa miad biroon
by Mammad on Wed Jan 11, 2012 04:54 PM PSTNow, where are all those who constantly moan and bemaon about terrorism, violations of human rights, assassination of innocent people, etc.?
They constantly attack the the VF regime's terrorism and assassination - as they should - but are either silent, or stupidly believe that it is the VF regime itself that kills these scientists.
In particular, the commentator who has made it a mission of his life to respond to everyone on this site [and in particular me], just demonstrated how much he knows and what he believes in.
Yes, we have two types of
1. terrorism, the bad ones committed by the VF regime, and the good ones committed by Israel/U.S./MEK
2. state-sponsored terrorism, the bad ones committed by the VF regime, and the good ones committed by U.S./Israel/MEK
3. aggresion and naked military attacks, the bad ones committed by the VF regime, and the good ones committed by U.S./Israel/MEK
4. causing instability in the Middle east, the bad one committed by the VF regime, and the good one by U.S./Israel.
5. torture and disappearance of innocent people [until proven otherwise], the bad ones committed by the VF regime, and the good ones by the U.S. [Guantanamo, Bagram, Abu Ghraib, extraordinary renditions around the world, support for bloody dictatorships]/Israel [done to the Palestinians].
Yes, this is "American exceptionalism" and "Israel does not commit anything bad" at its "best."
The turncoats are showing their true colours. "Dome- khorous keh az laaye aba oomadeh biroon" is so long that only true blinds do not see it!!
And, yes, the enlightened people of Iran are "natural allies" of such terrorists.

Purpose of terrorist act.
by Siavash300 on Wed Jan 11, 2012 04:20 PM PSTTerrorist activity and murdering unarmed civilians is Not meant to change regime's policy or to change regime's behavior. It has been meant to make establishment more vulnerable for future attacks. We should expect more and more terrorist attacks in near future. Poor Iranians who are victim of circumstances and they have to get killed for no reason.
A simple analysis of who did it!?
by Oon Yaroo on Wed Jan 11, 2012 04:09 PM PSTConjecture 1) Let's assume a foreign entity was behind it. Then, we arrive at the following conclusions:
a) The IRR's multiple layers of security apparatus were breached which renders IRR as the most inept, incompetent, ineffective, and careless government to leave its key scientific assets so vulnerable let alone protecting its nukes,
b) Many layers of the Iranian society are so stricken with destitute and misery that led them to sell classified information to foreign entities to make the ends meet,
c) a+b which means IRR is eventually fv&&ed.
Conjecture 2) Let's assume that IRR was behind this and there were no foreign entities involved. Then, in the face of such audacious act, we arrive at the following conclusions:
a) Any hope for Iranian civil society movements and reforms are nothing but figments of some yahoo's imagination, and the rest is kashk, and bademjoon,
b) This should prepare the US and Israel taking military actions down the road which hopefully result in IRR getting fv&&ed.
Right now, probability of conjecture 1 = probability of conjecture 2 = 1/2.
Dear iamfine
by Veiled Prophet of Khorasan on Wed Jan 11, 2012 04:02 PM PSTI strongly condemn the murder of this man and those responsible. Now I have two things to say:
It's As Simple As This:
by G. Rahmanian on Wed Jan 11, 2012 04:00 PM PSTThe criminal regime of the mullahs fears the scientists who are involved in highly sensitive projects because of their privilege to possess classified information. The regime kills them to protect such information, thus ensuring its own survival.

by iamfine on Wed Jan 11, 2012 03:53 PM PSTThey were responsible for this type of cowardly act. The guy was an employee of the government, nothing more nothing else. A bright person, educated from Sharief (Arymehr) University. This is not a laughing matter. we should condemn those who were responsible for this. This is nothing to do with IRI
Mola Nasreddin (now calling himself "iraj khan") has spoken....
by AMIR1973 on Wed Jan 11, 2012 03:28 PM PSTTerrorism would never work to achieve a long lasting reform/change.
Then, why has the IRI been a leading terrorist regime for the past 33 years? What gives, O Mola Nasreddin?واکنش امام نقی(ع) به خبر ترور دانشمند هسته ای

Faramarz Jaan:
by G. Rahmanian on Wed Jan 11, 2012 02:00 PM PSTAnd we know how most Basijis get into big-name universities in Iran. Academic qualifications: 0 or close to 0. Terrorism qualifications: 100. These are the sons and daughters of the Basijis who attacked university students during the initial stages of the so-called, "Cultural Revolution!" The trigger-happy, colt carrying criminals who ruined the lives of hundreds of thousands of people by forcing them out of the colleges or taking away their jobs.
Hypocracy!
by G. Rahmanian on Wed Jan 11, 2012 02:04 PM PSTRemember Islamists calling Neda Aghasoltan, "a street walker?" What was YOUR reaction? Remember Kahrizak? What was YOUR reaction? Remember crazy Mahmoud calling demonstrators names? What was YOUR reaction? Remember Islamists calling the victims of their terrorist acts abroad all sort of names? What was YOUR reaction? Remember the mass killings of Iranians? What was YOUR reaction? This is not the story of Karbala and people are entitled to their opinions! You don't like it, don't read what they write. Period!!!

by Faramarz on Wed Jan 11, 2012 01:39 PM PSTThis guy was not just a scientist. He was a Basiji student at Sharif U. That's how he got to the high position at Natanz at the age of 32.
Here is his profile.
