14. Probably not the Iranian government

Although that is possible. So far the best suggestion seems to be MEK with outside help. Mossad and other intelligence agencies probably have good contacts with MEK as well as other collaborators and even their own people on the ground.

Remember Ari Fleischer's quote about Saddam and 'one bullet' (for which he says he was severely upbraided by Bush himself)? It's alot cheaper and easier to assassinate people than to go to war. My guess is that it's Iranians doing the deeds, with support from outside intelligence agencies.

If that is what is happening, I don't know if it's right or wrong. It is a jungle out there and Iran has alot of enemies, so it is what it is, I guess.
