Reports of 'Iranian nuclear test' turn out to be blogger's hoax
None
An Iranian blogger revealed Tuesday that he is the writer of an article predicting an Iranian nuclear test, which was ascribed initially to the Revolutionary Guards. The 30-year-old blogger reported the authorities have contacted him after the article was published, but he was not punished.
In the article he had written in favor of an Iranian nuclear bomb, claiming it would create a balance of terror. "I wrote because I'm angry Iran doesn't have nuclear weapons. I think the sanctions will go on until the end of days. They make us very angry," he said in an interview to the Guardian on Tuesday. (Dudi Cohen)
