Was this MIT Scientist Assassinated for Pioneering Nuclear Fusion?

An MIT scientist was murdered in the entryway to his home in Brookline, Massachusetts.

With the terrible attacks on Jews celebrating Hannukah in Australia, students studying at Brown, Rob and Michelle Reiner by their son, and American servicemen in Syria, it is easy to overlook the murder of MIT professor Nuno Loureiro, which remains a mystery.

No motive for the attack is known.  The murderer remains at large.

Nuno Loureiro was director of MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center.  MIT conducts some of the world’s most cutting-edge fusion energy research and development.

Was it merely coincidence that the man who was murdered was pioneering nuclear technologies that, if successful, would usher in an age of endless energy abundance for all mankind?

Coincidences happen.

Yet when facts coincide, questions are raised.

Investigators must ask: Was this an attack against our energy future?

For nature and people too.
