Iranophobia and Obama the cyber-warrior

• Kaveh L Afrasiabi, Asia Times
United States President Barack Obama, the relentless drone warrior, has a new and proud hat: the cyber-warrior. Hitherto cloaked by a thinning facade of engagement with America's adversaries, the emperor has no clothes, with scandalous foreign policy decisions exposing a rogue essence to which the new undeclared cyber-war against Iran can now be added.

Last Friday, the US media ended a month filled with rapid velocity volleys by America's Iran-bashing "desire machine", to borrow a term from the French authors Deleuze and Guattari, with the revelation that Obama personally orchestrated the dangerous cyber-attack on Iran's nuclear facilities known as Stuxnet, [1] in direct violation of international law and the UN Charter, as well as US laws that require congressional authorization for an act of war.
