In all honesty there are Iranian ex-pats camping near the Iraq-Iran border that are more likely a place where someone could hide successfully to carry out such attacks without interruption. There are many witthin Iran that want to see the end to nuclear proliferation and war mongering. There was an entire movement in the country not long ago which erupted because of Iran's willingness to confront every other nation on Earth to propagate nuclear weapons.
I do believe Iran coming forward to ask for assistance in ending the deaths of scientists is an effective way of beginning more discussion about the unstable aspects of Iran and the region. Iran has to have productive relationships with other nations, especially its neighbors. There is no nation that wants to see Shi'ites endangered by the sheer fact they are Shi'ites. That is ethnic cleansing. No nation wants that.
Between the nuclear issue and Iran's willingness to be a lone wolf in the global community the tensions are reaching a new extreme and there needs to be change in the way Iran finds alliance and participation in the global community, including, nuclear non-proliferation.
