Shahram Amiri where are you?

Shahram,  Iranian nuclear scientist, went missing in June and there was some speculation from many different groups about were he might have gone. It has been almost like "Where's Waldo?" Scenario.   Iran accused us of abducting him, and of course the US denied it stealing/kidnapping him.  Since then rumors and allegations have been flapping back and forth.  Guess what?!  Yep, Mr. Amiri defected to the US.  He probably heard that we had Starbucks and wanted some. This is like the Cold War all over!!!


An Iranian nuclear scientist who has been missing since June has defected to the US, according to a US media report.
ABC News said Shahram Amiri had been resettled in the US and was helping the CIA in its efforts to block Iran's nuclear programme.
Mr Amiri disappeared in Saudi Arabia while on a Muslim pilgrimage.
Iran accused the US of abducting him but Washington denied any knowledge of the scientist. The CIA has declined to comment on the latest report.
Mr Amiri worked as a researcher at Tehran's Malek Ashtar University, according to Iran's state-run Press TV channel.
However, some reports said he had also been employed by Iran's Atomic Energy Organisation, and had wanted to seek asylum abroad.
