"Accidents"

Michael Ledeen, who may or may not be dead, had this exchange with Hugh Hewitt:

HH: Let’s say the phone rings, and it’s Tony Blair, and he says Michael Ledeen, what do you think I should do, what would you tell him?

ML: Proclaim the Iranian regime to be a rogue regime, call for regime change in Tehran, and start supporting the Iranian people. It’s what we should have been doing for the last, I don’t know how many years.

HH: Should accidents happen at gasoline refineries?

ML: It wouldn’t bother me at all.

I don't speak wingnut. What does Ledeen mean by "accident"? Would the targeted assassination of an Iranian scientist be an "accident"?

From comments:

Every ten years or so, the civilized world needs to pick up some small crappy little pundits like Hugh Hewitt and Michael Ledeen and thrown them against the wall, just to show the punditocracy that the civilized world means business.

Heh.
