" 

• Iran's top nuclear scientist was killed with a remote-controlled machine gun, the country's semiofficial Fars news agency reported.
• Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, who was seen as the father of Iran's nuclear program, was killed while driving with his wife and security convoy near Tehran on Friday.
• Fars said the gun was mounted on the back of a Nissan truck that self-destructed after a three-minute attack. Iran has blamed Israel.
• Ali Shamkhani, Iran's top national security official, on Monday said the hit was "conducted using electronic equipment and there was nobody on the scene," suggesting the weapon was remote-controlled.

I don't know who ,

 

 

but someone deserves a lot of credit.

 

OTOH, maybe it wasn't all that hard. The guy didn't sound like the sharpest knife in the drawer.

 

" New information about the attack was reported Sunday, however, with Fars saying Fakhrizadeh stopped and left his car after mistaking several bullets that had just hit his vehicle for engine trouble. "

Ha- Ha....it wasn't Mossad agents at all.   Just Walter White back to his old games...

Seems like it would be harder to get a RC vehicle and machine gun into Iran than to sneak a couple of high-speed, low-drag types in to do the killing.

 

But hey, it's 2020. Even aliens wouldn't really be all that shocking.
