Those Squirrely Iranians



You will have to excuse me for laughing at this.

I know the Iranian Regime is dangerous, I know that they are working their way towards a nuclear bomb, I know they wish to see Israel wiped off the face of the map and they wish to see Death to America. I know they must be stopped.

I have posted on these issues dozens of times before.

But, once in a while, they do something that makes me laugh my ass off, and todays article is one of those times.

Iranians arrest 14 squirrels for spying

Islamic Republic's intelligence agents allege rodents were carrying advanced Western spy gear.

Iranian intelligence operatives recently detained over a dozen squirrels found within the nation's borders, claiming the rodents were serving as spies for Western powers determined to undermine the Islamic Republic.

"In recent weeks, intelligence operatives have arrested 14 squirrels within Iran's borders," state-sponsored news agency IRNA reported. "The squirrels were carrying spy gear of foreign agencies, and were stopped before they could act, thanks to the alertness of our intelligence services."

Iranian police commander Esmaeil Ahmadi-Moqadam confirmed the report, saying that a number of squirrels had been caught bearing foreign spy gear within Iran's borders.

"I heard of this but I have no specific knowledge on the subject," he said. He refused to give further details.

Recently, Iran has increased its efforts in combating espionage by the West. The use of rodents has not been documented in the past.




No commentary really needed here.
