"As Mossad works closely with British & American counterparts, the Iranians, not surprisingly, will conclude that British agents are also engaged in targeting Iran!"

In the most recent incident, a mysterious explosion appears to have caused significant damage to the uranium enrichment complex at Isfahan, a vital feature of Iran’s nuclear programme.
If, as seems likely, this was the result of sabotage, then the finger of suspicion will inevitably point towards Israel’s Mossad intelligence service.
