This is of course the final admission that the U.S. (together with Israel and likely Siemens/Germany) was the author of Stuxnet. If a working international court of justice would exist, this would be a case.
And, of course, getting the whistleblower is important, stopping the crime is not.
Quote:A retired US general, James Cartwright, is the target of a Justice Department investigation into the leaking of secret information about the Stuxnet virus attack on Iranian nuclear facilities in 2010, NBC News reported on Thursday, citing unidentified legal sources.
NBC said Cartwright, once the second highest ranking officer in the US military, was being investigated over the leaked information about the computer virus, which temporarily disabled 1,000 centrifuges used byIran to enrich uranium, setting back its nuclear programme.

The most relevant literature regarding what happened since September 11, 2001 is George Orwell's "1984".
