Funky Mushroom alert!
I saw this picture a few months ago and it freaked me out then too. I am terrified of spiders, my brother used to toss them on me. I need to take a shower now.
There is no way that is real
No. The same story. Read the whole thing.
In South America they have dinner plate sized tarantulas called bird spiders and the natives eat them and use the fangs as toothpicks. Really!
The pic is very real, but it's misleading. The spiders are held close to the lens, greatly exaggerating their size. Note the sleeve to the right.
I remember back to shortly after 9/11 when a western journalist asked a group of what appeared to be Afghani or Pakistani young teens if they were aware of the past existence of dinosaurs. They replied that dinosaurs were indeed real, created by Christians to devour Muslims.
We've heard this before...
LOOK AT THE DATE OF THE ARTICLE!
August 27, 2004
He has been vanquished and given the proper flush burial.
He must have gotten lost on the way to Fallujah. He was 25-30 miles away from there when he made his appearance scurrying across my floor.
"If this hair touches the human body, within a short period of time the body becomes black or blue, and then there is an explosion in the blood cells in the human body - and the person dies"
All spider nonsense aside, this sounds like the description of the effects of anthrax and certain other bio agents. If the terrorists had any such agents, they could always brush off their use by attributing the victems to "Allah's spiders". The explanation wouldn't wash over here, except maybe in parts of Florida, but in Iraq it might sell.
Yep. I remember those. Checked my boots every morning and my bag every night.
Did they defeat the infidels from great Satan?
Did the phantom white-robed knights on white horses turn the battle for the terrorist?
Pure propaganda for the masses of ignorant Moslem's that still have a 7th century calendar on their tent wall
"I too, in one of the Friday sermons, held up a spider, with all its magnitude, in front of the satellite channels and in front of the world. This spider also had thin black hair. If this hair touches the human body, within a short period of time the body becomes black or blue, and then there is an explosion in the blood cells in the human body - and the person dies."
See this spider I'm holding here in my hand, anyone who touches it will die...
You have to love it when a person contradicts themself in the same paragraph.
I cant believe "the giant spider invasion" made it to DVD
