Nuclear Scientists of Iran

 Nadene Goldfoot                                               


The Iranian news, Fars News Agency, tells us that the senior Iranian nuclear scientist, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, born 1958, was assassinated by a remote-controlled machine gun that was detonated after the attack. Israel is blamed.  Mohsen Fakhrizadeh Mahabadi was a brigadier general in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and a senior official in the nuclear program of Iran. He taught physics at Imam Hussein University in Tehran.

As a key figure in the Physics Research Center, Fakhrizadeh was responsible for planning and acquiring parts for acquiring parts for Iran’s first uranium enrichment plant

In 2010, The Guardian reported that Fakhrizadeh was believed to be in charge of Iran's nuclear programme. In 2012, The Wall Street Journal called him "Tehran's atomic weapons guru"; in 2014, The New York Times called him the closest thing to an Iranian Oppenheimer. Following Fakhrizadeh's assassination, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei described him as "the country's prominent and distinguished nuclear and defensive scientist". Western intelligence agencies, including those of the United States, alleged that Fakhrizadeh was in charge of Iran's nuclear programme, Project 111,   which they contend is or was an attempt to create a nuclear bomb for Iran;  Iran has denied that its nuclear programme has a military aspect.  Fakhrizadeh has been referred to as the director of the Green Salt Project.  According to The New York Times, Fakhrizadeh was described in classified portions of American intelligence reports as deeply involved in an effort to design a nuclear warhead for Iran.

This is not the first Iranian scientist who has died in this manner.This is the 7th one.  Israel is again blamed.                                                  

It's not surprising.  Iran is a country who has threatened Israel and the United States with oblivion.  Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was President of Iran from 3 August 2005 to 3 August 2013, and during that time had repeatedly made contentious speeches and statements against Israel. Ahmadinejad refused to call Israel by name, instead calling it the “Zionist regime”. He has called for the "elimination of the Zionist regime". Ahmadinejad took part in a protest called "The World Without Zionism" and has derided Israel on numerous occasions. He has urged regional powers to cut diplomatic and economic ties with Israel and halt oil sales. Tensions have risen over Iran's nuclear program.  He has also provided funding, training and arms to what are widely regarded as terrorist organisations Hezbollah and Hamas, which are sworn enemies of Israel and waged war against Israel.

Ahmadinejad's remarks have been criticized by various world bodies and governments, including the United StatesCanada, the European Union, and the United NationsIn an interview on Iran's Arabic channel 'Al-Alam' on 8 December 2005, Ahmadinejad said that if Germany and Austria feel responsible for the massacre of Jews during World War II, they should host a state of Israel on their own soil. Speaking at a news conference on the summit sidelines, Ahmadinejad said most Jews in Israel "have no roots in Palestine, but they are holding the destiny of Palestine in their hands and allow themselves to kill the Palestinian people."

"Some European countries insist on saying that during World War IIHitler burned millions of Jews and put them in concentration camps. Any historiancommentator or scientist who doubts that is taken to prison or gets condemned. Although we don't accept this claim, if we suppose it is true... If the Europeans are honest they should give some of their provinces in Europe – like in GermanyAustria or other countries – to the Zionists and the Zionists can establish their state in Europe. You offer part of Europe and we will support it."

 President Trump tried to look into what would transpire if the USA attacked Iran in a defensive attack.  Now that Joe  Biden will preside as President of the USA by January 20, we have already notice that he plans to go back to Obama's position on nuclear activity in Iran with the JCPOA and the IAEA, which we all hope will be modified and updated to the knowledge we now know about.   John Kerry didn't take a stronger stand with his peers around him.        

“I am disclosing for the first time that Iran has another secret facility in Tehran, a secret atomic warehouse for storing massive amounts of equipment and materiel from Iran’s secret nuclear program,” Netanyahu said.  Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu drew a red line on a graphic of a bomb as he addresses the 67th United Nations General Assembly at the U.N. Headquarters in New York, September 27, 2012. REUTERS/Lucas Jackson"  This was 8 years ago.

As we understand, Iran is 3 months away from the point of no return, a point Netanyahu tried to warn the world about at the UN and in the USA Senate.  We no longer have a window of 10 years.  This scientist who was assassinated was the main person supporting Iran's goal of creating warfare to wipe out Israel and in doing so, take out their competition, the Sunni Arabs as well.  Then they would turn against the USA.

It has only been since the Ayatollahs have kicked out the Shah of Iran and have taken over that all this hatred against the West and Israel has taken over in Iran (Persia).

 This has come about with a resurgence of the Shi'a Muslim branch of religion becoming more than orthodox, more like the ISIS of the Sunnis,  radical Salafi Islam in their goal of destroying Israel, therefore manufacturing atomic warfare that leads to their nuclear centers.  

ISIS-ISIL's ideology represents radical Salafi Islam, a strict, puritanical form of Sunni Islam.

Without evidence, Haifa, Israel  is now discussed as Iran's goal today in retaliation.  Striking the Israeli city of Haifa and killing a large number of people “will definitely lead to deterrence, because the United States and the Israeli regime and its agents are by no means ready to take part in a war and a military confrontation,” Zarei wrote.

Apart from each Israel  or the USA attacking Iran in defense, killing the head nuclear scientist is the best way to stop their advance in my opinion.

"Operation Outside the Box (Hebrew: מבצע מחוץ לקופסה‎, Mivtza Michutz La'Kufsa) was an Israeli airstrike on a suspected nuclear reactor, referred to as the Al Kibar site (also referred to in IAEA documents as Dair Alzour), in the Deir ez-Zor region of Syria, which occurred just after midnight (local time) on 6 September 2007."  Syria had made it very plain that they were the enemy; not a friend.
