Dutch secret agent played a crucial role in the sabotage of Iran’s nuclear program, and no one knew it

A Dutch secret agent played a crucial role in a spectacular sabotage operation against the Iranian nuclear program, it appears. The Dutchman smuggled a powerful computer virus into the heavily secured Iranian nuclear complex in Natanz, where the virus caused immense damage. Striking: the Dutch intelligence service AIVD did not even know that it was their agent who pulled off this powerful punch in 2007. Nor does Dutch politics, reports ‘De Volkskrant’ based on its own research. The Americans appear to have played a remarkable game.
