There is an incredible flurry of news articles about Iran. The covert war continues as another scientist working on the nuclear program was assassinated. He was the fifth such scientist to be killed. Iran blames Israel and the US for the deaths, a charge the US vehemently denies and Israel merely deflects. Reaction to the assassination was quite strong in Iran, and global sentiment is clearly against such acts. The pattern of attacks clearly suggests that they are orchestrated by some central power or powers acting in coordination. As such, they are clearly acts of war and, if the attackers are convincingly identified, would unleash global opprobrium. In one good sign, the EU seems to be putting off its planned embargo of Iranian oil for a period of time.
