#1 Interesting. Stuff like this makes you wish you were a fly on the wall in Netanyahu's office and could read the daily briefing from Mossad. HAHAHA!!!

#2 Just remember, Israel is not the only country that does not want Iran to go nuclear. The list is as long as a radical Imam fatwa.
Saudi Arabia
UAE
Iraq
Turkey
Yemen
Oman
Heck even the nuts in Egypt don't want a nuclear Iran.

#4 If this incident really was sabotage (and not a centrifuge accident) ... someone deserves to be awarded a medal.
No mention of whether Iranian workers are still trapped underground in the Fordow plant, or whether there were casualties. But it seems highly likely that some of the workforce must have been unable to escape the incident.

#5 Raider, I think the original, unconfirmed WND report claimed something like 240 workers were trapped underground at the Fordow plant.

#7 In 2009, the EU took the MEK (aka Mujahadeen e Khalq aka The [Iran] People's Warriors) off the terrorist list. In Sept 2012, the US took them off the US terrorist list. Subsequently, several of the pro Mullah orgs in the US protested claiming that the unlisting would lead to the MEK engaging in sabotage in Iran.
Tee Hee.

#8 If there is any radiation leakage, I guarantee it is being picked up by satellites. That would make folks at CIA and NSA HQ do a little happy dance.

#10 Would the explosion be big enough to move seismographs? The articles I've seen haven't mentioned such a thing...

#11 Hyperbaric hidden in the supplies? Criticality incident? Either would slow them down nicely.

#13 Criticality incident aren't the big kaboom, more like a small fizzle. But they sure are messy. We can hope.

#14 "Would the explosion be big enough to move seismographs? The articles I've seen haven't mentioned such a thing..."
That's actually a very good point. I thought the same thing after you broke the original story last week. It seems like if the explosion actually shook the ground out to a radius of several miles around Fordo - then YES someone should have seen it on local seismographs in the ME. Not sure what the closest monitoring station would be.
