Comment on Stuxnet is embarrassing, not amazingparent

The US is home to more of the world's brightest computer scientists, but they aren't apportioned evenly throughout all the intelligence services and their contractors. Even presuming that this was carried out by "Mossad" --- and despite breathless reporting in the mainstream media and our inherent narrative bias about cyberwarfare stories, that's still a presumption --- that doesn't mean the best & brightest actually worked on this.

I guess the point is that it is simply impossible to distinguish between a mediocre team and a brilliant one that has chosen to disguise its capabilities.
