Stuxnet worm 'targeted high-value Iranian assets'

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-11388018

Quote:
One of the most sophisticated pieces of malware ever detected was probably targeting "high value" infrastructure in Iran, experts have told the BBC.
Stuxnet's complexity suggests it could only have been written by a "nation state", some researchers have claimed.
It is believed to be the first-known worm designed to target real-world infrastructure such as power stations, water plants and industrial units.
It was first detected in June and has been intensely studied ever since.

Nation sponsored terrorism? But which nation and it is morally defensible?

If I had to guess, I would say Israel or possibly the USA
