I thought the reactor wasn't quite operational yet because of damage caused by the Stuxnet infection? Maybe the Iranians needed help repairing the reactor or something along those lines. Or they needed help with a bomb. Someone found out and decided to off the scientists?
That or the Russians don't know how to fly/maintain their planes. (more likely)
Seriously though, aren't there rules against flying a bunch of important people on a single flight like this?
