What's going on, are we being kept in the dark?

Most of the press seems to be keeping stumm, but something big is happening here I think. Any comments?

Are the Israelis bent on Armageddon in 2012....they must have put a bet on.

the story comes from The Australian, one of Murdoch's papers. It seems to have originated in The Times (of London) and presumably ran there. But as Murdoch's British papers operate their websites behind a paywall, their news doesn't get out much.

However, it has received coverage

The BBC covered it:

Chris, The BBC article only talks about a military base, it doesn't mention anything about damage to their nuclear ambitions.

The Previous attack involved the Stuxnet virus. It attacked the computers at the installation and ran a program that sent the atomic processes there into a self destructing cycle, damaging the plant.

It has been reported another similar virus has been developed. Perhaps this has attacked the second plant.

Unless you are Iranian, it sounds like a win-win scenario. Irans nuclear ambitions are slowed down or stopped, and a full blown Israeli military attack (and the dire consequences) are averted.
