There are ways of hampering Iran’s quest for nukes besides the ludicrous idea that the IAF can pull off an air strike (which can never happen) on all the Iranian nuclear facilities in one fell swoop. Technology used to destroy other technology sounds like a great way to go.
by Yaakov Katz
The Stuxnet virus, which has attacked Iran’s nuclear facilities and which Israel is suspected of creating, has set back the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program by two years, a top German computer consultant who was one of the first experts to analyze the program’s code told The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday.
“It will take two years for Iran to get back on track,” Langer said in a telephone interview from his office in Hamburg, Germany. “This was nearly as effective as a military strike, but even better since there are no fatalities and no full-blown war. From a military perspective, this was a huge success.”
Langer spoke to the Post amid news reports that the virus was still infecting Iran’s computer systems at its main uranium enrichment facility at Natanz and its reactor at Bushehr.
Last month, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the United Nation’s nuclear watchdog, said that Iran had suspended work at its nuclear-field production facilities, likely a result of the Stuxnet virus.
According to Langer, Iran’s best move would be to throw out all of the computers that have been infected by the worm, which he said was the most “advanced and aggressive malware in history.” But, he said, even once all of the computers were thrown out, Iran would have to ensure that computers used by outside contractors were also clean of Stuxnet.
“It is extremely difficult to clean up installations from Stuxnet, and we know that Iran is no good in IT [information technology] security, and they are just beginning to learn what this all means,” he said. “Just to get their systems running again they have to get rid of the virus, and this will take time, and then they need to replace the equipment, and they have to rebuild the centrifuges at Natanz and possibly buy a new turbine for Bushehr.”
Widespread speculation has named Israel’s Military Intelligence Unit 8200, known for its advanced Signal Intelligence (SIGINT) capabilities, as the possible creator of the software, as well as the United States.
Langer said that in his opinion at least two countries – possibly Israel and the United States – were behind Stuxnet.
Israel has traditionally declined comment on its suspected involvement in the Stuxnet virus, but senior IDF officers recently confirmed that Iran had encountered significant technological difficulties with its centrifuges at the Natanz enrichment facility.
“We can say that it must have taken several years to develop, and we arrived at this conclusion through code analysis, since the code on the control systems is 15,000 lines of code, and this is a huge amount,” Langer said.
“This piece of evidence led us to conclude that this is not by a hacker,” he continued. “It had to be a country, and we can also conclude that even one nation-state would not have been able to do this on its own.”
Eric Byres, a computer security expert who runs a website called Tofino Security, which provides solutions for industrial companies with Stuxnet-related problems, told the Post on Tuesday that the number of Iranians visiting his site had jumped tremendously in recent weeks – a likely indication that the virus is still causing great disarray at Iranian nuclear facilities.

Meanwhile, more evidence of the Nazi-Palestinian collaboration during World War II
Sheikh al-Husseini with Nazi officials
by Jennifer Lipman
The Nazis told the leader of the Palestinian Arabs that in return for his help during the Second World War he would have control of Palestine.
According to a report released this week by the US National Archives, based on thousands of declassified documents, the Nazis planned to make the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini, overall leader after the British were ousted and the 350,000-strong Jewish population was murdered.
In return for “liberating” Palestine, the report reveals that the Germans paid Sheikh al-Husseini “an absolute fortune” of 50,000 marks a month and tasked him with recruiting Muslims to the SS.
It is well-known that Sheikh al-Husseini worked with the Nazis, but after the war he claimed this was because he wanted to avoid being arrested by the British authorities.
[....]
“The documents confirm that while Nazi Germany was exterminating the Jewish people across Europe, an alliance was forged with certain Arab leaders to go after Jews in the British Mandate of Palestine.”
Mr Harris added: “The depth and intimacy of the relationship between Nazi Germany and the main Palestinian leader of the time…is particularly appalling.

That’s Langner’s speculation. We really don’t know how much damage was done.
Let me guess, the Obama Administration disapproves of any
interference in Iranian technology usage.
That tells me something. If it were just an ordinary OS-infecting worm, cleaning or replacing the hard drives would be enough. This implies that this beast burrows itself in the BIOS. IOW, the motherboards are toast.
This is some hard core stuff.

It certainly is not going to help make his dream come true that The Islamic Republic of Iran will “unclench” and embrace him.
His life is not complete until the ‘shit slinging monkey’ gives him a hug.
The real problem that Iran has is that for these auxiliary systems such as the PLC controls, they’re totally dependent on outside suppliers. This is how they ended up with what appears to be a fairly generic industrial control configuration for their centrifuges, and while they’re resistant to attack, they’re not impervious.
Now they’re going to have to make some decisions. Do they try to clean and secure their Siemens stuff, or start all over? If they start all over, then who? Can the Israelis get into any other PLC?
The short answer is yes. Nothing can’t be cracked by people of this caliber. There are some things that they can do to make it harder, but I’m not going to give them any help.
In all likelihood, they’re going to be battling this digital clap for a long time.

@ lobo91:
Obama’s recent statement, echoing Pelosi’s earlier statement, that extended unemployment payments act as a “stimulus to the economy,” coupled with the Democrats’ insistence on not extending the current tax structure for “the rich” is extremely disturbing.
These statements view “economic stimulus” solely in terms of people spending the money in their pockets at the present moment, not in terms of saving or investment. Either they fail to realize that when “the rich” have more money in hand that money is invested, which is the true source of genuine economic stimulus, or they are trying desperately to prevent such stimulus by making investment less likely.
In the meantime, the sort of faux-stimulus produced by people spending the bankroll in their pockets is the essence of that old, monumentally non-PC term “n*gger rich,” which referred to having a big bankroll in the pocket for the moment and nothing else. It is extremely unsettling to see the President and his most trusted allies view the task of economic recovery in terms that correspond to the most racist stereotype of someone who snagged a big roll at a crap game.

Those people who filed the FOI and baloney ethics complaints learned that this is the way to defeat the Conservatives, that we have limited will to defend ourselves. Next, would it be any easier for a President Palin? If she believes that the silliness would be less on a national scale, she is sorely mistaken. Personally, I believe Sarah Palin is smart, energetic, courageous, and capable, but I do believe that resigning as Alaska’s Governor was the exact wrong thing to do. I wish she had stayed to fight this nonsense. Not fighting the leftists at every turn is what gets Republicans in the most trouble.
