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.

OPINION: As funny as this sounds, the jihadis stuff bombs in animals; so maybe they really do believe the “squirrels” are spying.
Ahmadinejad...he must be sweating — he seems to be a very paranoid little man.
If there was an honest to goodness opinion poll in Iran; it would show Ahmadinejad is a total nut and a fruitcake, too — which in essence is a granola bar chock full of fruits and nuts leading the country of Iran.
Scary, scary.

Actually, if the squirrels were really acting strange, the Iranians should be concerned if the squirrels are carrying the plague and/or have rabies.
