Edward Snowden, the man who has shocked the world with his revelations about the NSA's spying activities, seems to know a lot of secrets.
In an interview he gave to the German magazine Der Spiegel, in addition to exposing the cooperation between Germany's secret services and the NSA, he also revealed who was involved in the infamous Stuxnet virus that was used in 2010 in Iran's nuclear facilities.
“The NSA and Israel wrote the Stuxnet code together,” Snowden said when asked if the NSA had any involvement in the Stuxnet program.
The US has not officially confirmed its involvement in the Stuxnet program. However, when the New York Times published an article about a year ago about the malware and reported that the US and Israel were collaborating on the malware, the Justice Department launched an investigation to find out who was behind the leak.
Currently, reports say that retired General James Cartwright, the former vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is the prime suspect in the investigation.
