Although the headline is conjecture, the article mostly quotes experts in the field, so I would hardly say that it has zero substance. The main point is that highly technical websites and mailing lists that deal with the hardware and software involved have seen an influx of Iranian visitors, which might imply that there is an ongoing effort to contain the damage.

Not rock-solid proof, but interesting stuff.

More Iranian users could just mean that the nuclear industry in Iran is becoming larger.

Indeed, all conjecture, zero substance. Once more: don't expect serious journalism from Fox News. Nevertheless, I can quite easily believe Teheran lacks the technical knowhow to defend themselves. And given the large number of involved parties (we were talking Siemens hardware), a clean room approach won't work either.

I had the same assumption about their capabilities, but then I read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran#Science_and_technology

+1 for highlighting lack of journalistic integrity at Fox News.

-1 for making a statement, that could quite happily be broadcast by Fox News ;)

i.e. speculative conjecture, and a generalisation based on cultural assumptions: I can quite easily believe Teheran lacks the technical knowhow to defend themselves.

(plus Teheran is a city and a region, not a nation state - it would have made more sense to talk about Iran)

EDIT; I surrender, I saw the Fox logo, it's now very clear -> 'fair and balanced' ;)

Using the name of a capital city as shorthand for a central government is very common and accepted

Sorry, I didn't realise. Previously, I'd only heard this kind of reference made in 1950s war films.

Perhaps I'm wrong, I but I think it's foolish to dismiss a country's capabilities without firm evidence. Much of the news media picks up on vague themes, and often makes assumptions based on its own country's perceived superiority. In my opinion, there's no good reason to duplicate their error.
