Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan was assassinated Wednesday when two men on a
motorcycle stuck a magnet bomb to his vehicle and rode off. According to
reports, Roshan is the fifth Iranian nuclear scientist assassinated in
the last two years. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has publicly
denied American involvement and no one has come forward claiming
responsibility for the murder. Jamal Abdi, policy director for the
National Iranian American Council, helps us analyze who could be
responsible and will this cause greater tension between Iran and the US.
[Editor's Note: This is an excellent news report which importantly points out that the Iranians do not yet have a nuclear weapons program, as stated by Defense Secretary Leon Panetta himself. Rather, what the Iranians are actually doing (based on factual evidence) is developing nuclear capability [to boil water] and that it is up to present or future Iranian leaders to decide whether or not to go forwards with a real nuclear weapons program.
There is speculation that the Mossad and MEK (formerly classified by the United States government as a terrorist group) may have been responsible for killing the director of the Iran's uranium enrichment program Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan. Or, as Liz Wahl's guest Jamal Abdi, policy director for the National Iranian American Council, speculates it could have been some other group or hardliners within the Iranian government itself who do not want Iran to be peacefully incorporated in to the international community. We do not know for sure who is responsible.
I hope that we the public are more vigilant this time and do not get suckered in to believing another lie similar to the WMD/yellowcake deception which was used as an excuse to invade Iraq with catastrophic consequences both in loss of life and economically.]

We stumbled across the smart phone apps as we were investigating what looks like the latest inncident of TEPCO adding Nalgene radiation shields to their cameras to block/reduce the very affect that the "Radioactivity Counter Rolf-Dieter Klein" leverages to use your smartphone camera as a radiation detector.
The App costs $4.99 and you can find it here; The POTRBLOG team has not tried the APP, nor are we in any way affiliated with it; but it does look interesting. The FAQ on the APP may be found HERE

1/10/2012 Leon Panetta admits Iran is not developing a nuclear weapon
Source: Activist Post
Date: 1/10/2012
by: Madison Ruppert

Astoundingly, United States Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta openly admitted on national television that Iran is not, in fact, developing nuclear weapons, yet still justified the Western assault on their nuclear program.
On the CBS show “Face the Nation” Panetta stated, in no uncertain terms, that Iran is not trying to develop a nuclear weapon, making one wonder why the United States and the United Nations feel justified in pressuring Iran.

1/5/2012 Radiation doctor says TSA naked body scanners can cause cancer
Source: Natural News
Date: Thursday, January 05, 2012
by: Jonathan Benson
(NaturalNews) No matter how many times the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) claims the machines are safe and pose no threat to travelers or personnel, naked body scanners that emit ionizing radiation are, indeed, a very serious health threat. And Dr. Edward Dauer, head of radiology at Florida Medical Center, agrees, having recently come forward to explain that naked body scanners can cause cancer, particularly in those over age 65 and in women who are said to be genetically prone to developing breast cancer.

Iran’s development of a nuclear fuel rod for medical research isn’t a milestone in a quest for atomic weapons, according to energy analysts in the U.S.
“This has some diplomatic significance and virtually no military significance,” James Acton, a senior associate in the Nuclear Policy Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in Washington, said yesterday in a telephone interview.

12/30/2011 The Yakuza and the Nuclear Mafia: Nationalization Looms for TEPCO
Source: The Atlantic Wire
Date: 12/30/2011 10:42 AM ET
by: Jake Adelstein
Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the monolithic corporation that controls all electric power in Greater Tokyo, and runs the Fukushima Daichii nuclear plant that experienced a triple meltdown following the March 11 earthquake, is on the brink of nationalization according to Japanese government sources. The official reason is that the firm may not be able to handle the massive compensation payments it owes to victims of the meltdown without going bankrupt. Unofficially, the firm has such long-standing ties to anti-social forces, including the yakuza—that some members of the Diet, Japan’s national legislature, feel the firm is beyond salvation and needs to be taken over and cleaned up. A Japanese Senator with the Liberal Democratic Party stated on background, "TEPCO's involvement with anti-social forces and their inability to filter them out of the work-place is a national security issue. It is one reason that increasingly in the Diet we are talking de facto nationalization of the company. Nuclear energy shouldn't be in the hands of the yakuza. They're gamblers and an intelligent person doesn't want them to have atomic dice to play with."
