Iran Nuclear Agency Not "Thunderstruck" By Virus
twoheadedboy writes "Iran may have been hit hard by Stuxnet, but officials have said that reports of a virus infecting its nuclear facilities and forcing computers to play the AC/DC classic 'Thunderstruck' were rubbish. Last month, F-Secure's chief research officer, Mikko Hypponen, was sent an email that appeared to be from a scientist working at the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), claiming nuclear systems had been targeted by cyber attackers. Whilst the chief of the AEOI has come out to deny those claims, the sender of that email still managed to get hold of an official aeoi.org.ir email address. That has left some onlookers baffled about what is going on."
Stop making logical arguments and drawing intelligent conclusions. You are breaking protocol against policy. This is a story about America and Israel, and we are talking about Iran. Take your daily dose of FUD, put on your uncle sam hat, and say some ignorant, ill thought, poorly articulated, hateful, xenophobic, paranoid stuff like the rest of us. I recommend you go dig up some neo-Nazi Gestapo anti Semitic rhetoric from your grandfathers bookshelf and replace "Jew" with "Persian" or "Iranian", and perhaps polish it off with some of the new and shiny fox news buzzwords that are being thrown around these days to make it easier for the parrots to communicate about the international politics they do not understand whilst instilling a sense of resentment towards rationality and appealing to a false sense of pseudo patriotism in stupid people who are the product of our public education system.
In an effort to avoid generalizing and stereotyping, I must admit that there are outliers of the public education system, but they have treasonous parents to blame for their unpatriotic defiance in the face of our attempt to eradicate critical thinking amongst the masses.
