I've Been Thinking:
It seems that Iran's Head of Cyber Warfare was assassinated over the weekend.
Majtaba Ahmadi was found in a wooded area with two pistol shots to his chest. The shots were fired ad point blank range. It is almost certain that he was assassinated.
Since 2007 at least five Iranian weapons scientists have been assassinated. Iran blames the Israeli Mossad for the killings.
Up until now the victims have all been scientists working on nuclear systems or other advanced weapons system.
Ahmadi was the head of a weapon and defense system, but not in the conventional style. His was a very important position. He was responsible for attack strategies against Israel and against the West.
So although he was not a scientist in the conventional sense, Ahmadi was in an even more significant position and posed a greater risk to the Western world than others who were previously targeted.
Like with the other targeted assassinations, I do not think any more information will be forthcoming.
