The information comes from a former hacker attack on the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). IAEA confirms that their server has been hacked and that information is taken from there.Parastoo also submitted a letter to the IAEA that they invited the IAEA to also inspect Israeli nuclear facilities. Israel is suspected of having hundreds of nuclear weapons that they include has threatened to use against Europe in the so-called "Samson Option", where Israel has planned to wipe out a large part of the world if they are attacked. After the United States infected several plants in Iran with a virus that caused severe damage to Iran's nuclear research started in Iran a nätarmé. Many experts say it is likely to be Iran's new nätarmé behind hacking. However, it is very difficult to prove who is behind hacker attacks because hackers often hide behind servers in other countries and encrypts their data very hard. It has long been an active cyber war between Iran and the United States and its allies. Iran blames U.S. for extensive espionage and sabotage by hackers attack. U.S. suspects that Iran is behind hacker attacks on Saudi oil companies and that Iran uses hackers to obtain information about its enemies. There are also suspicions that both the U.S. and Iran uses external hackers to carry out their attacks. It can involve both independent supporters and hackers who get paid to perform various tasks.

Not that they ever did given what they are trying to accomplish but at least he helped to keep the UN powerless. |

Isn't the fact that Israel is using their only nuclear reactor to make nuclear bombs something the civilized world should know about? |
