Adviser to Khamenei says aid collectors for Palestinians sought to deploy reptiles whose skin 'attracted atomic waves'
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The former chief-of-staff of Irans armed forces said Tuesday that Western spies had used lizards to attract atomic waves and spy on his countrys nuclear program.
It was the latest in a long line of incidents of Western countries, including Israel, being accused of deploying secret agents from the animal kingdom.
Hassan Firuzabadi, senior military adviser to supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was responding to questions from local media on the recent arrest of environmentalists.
He said he did not know the details of the cases, but that the West had often used tourists, scientists and environmentalists to spy on Iran.
Several years ago, some individuals came to Iran to collect aid for Palestine We were suspicious of the route they chose, he told the reformist ILNA news agency.
In their possessions were a variety of reptile desert species like lizards, chameleons We found out that their skin attracts atomic waves and that they were nuclear spies who wanted to find out where inside the Islamic Republic of Iran we have uranium mines and where we are engaged in atomic activities, he said.
Firuzabadi said Western spy agencies had failed every time.
His comments came after news that a leading Iranian-Canadian environmentalist, Kavous Seyed Emami, had committed suicide in prison after he was arrested along with other members of his wildlife NGO last month.
Several spying allegations involving various creatures have been leveled against Israel over the past years.
In January 2016, Lebanese residents captured a griffon vulture wearing an Israeli tracking device, but released it upon realizing that the transmitter strapped to the bird was intended for scientific research rather than espionage.
Several months earlier, Hamas claimed to have caught a dolphin wearing Israeli spying equipment.
Twice in recent years, Turkish media has highlighted allegations that birds tagged with Israeli university tracking devices were on espionage missions.
In 2012, an eagle with an Israeli tag in Sudan was captured and alleged to be as a Mossad spy.
Two years earlier, an Egyptian official said Israel-controlled sharks may have been involved in a number of attacks on tourists in the Red Sea.
LOL!
Well, this has been a day, regardless of what it looks like. I managed to pack three boxes of books, and even made a pan of Rhodes’ rolls. I had to buy some disposable bake pans at WinCo, but three were in the package for 89¢, and it was worth it to smell the rolls baking!
Eddie says there is no recourse for the lady that passed last week, because she had no family. :o[
I seem to be running a slight fever again, so I’m going to sit and crochet on a new scarf. I finished another one yesterday! Therapy!
The cats have found and like the red things.
(This is NOT a good thing.)
You’re doing extremely well! I went to Walmart with Tom.
Since I didn’t sleep well last night, I feel pretty well beat up, and I hear the bed calling to me.
I’m trying to stay up for a while...but my eyelids are trying to slam shut! It would be nice to get eight or nine hours of sleep. Maybe, if I can, I’ll feel rested enough to pack another three or four boxes.
Then there will be just the little stuff left but it would be easier to pack if I had another storage tub or two. Hopefully, I can get them and the cooler on payday.
I had a meeting with the client of the company I want to go to work for. I’m supposed to get a follow-up phone call to de-brief. It was supposed to be at 3 but the guy asked to re-schedule. He said the feedback was positive.
The pace is driving me nuts.
Mrs. ArGee doesn’t want me to take it because the location is One World Trade Center.
I think you’d be fine.
We’re over here now, spying on iran via reptiles.
Somehow, I think if you took a job at One World Trade Center, you’d be OK. Especially if that particular “door” opened and there were no others that were even unlocked.
I am still praying for you because it’s what I do!
Pretty kitteh! So squeeful and full of floof!
Good morning. I slept.
I will shower in a bit and then see what I can do to pack a little more. There isn’t really a lot left, but the sense of urgency won’t go away, and that means I may very well be #2 on the Wait List.
From your keyboard to God's inbox!
I need to type up the lyrics for Sunday's Mass, and then get the Youth off to the gym early. Busy day today.
I sent you the info on the brake pads.
I sent you back. Now, music having been sent and one’s mother emailed, we’re off to the gym.
I had to re-send that email to the alternate email so I could print it out. Yahoo makes me go through too many changes before I can print anything, so I use Gmail. SO much easier! (Even though I hate anything having to do with Goober...)
It looks interesting, and I’ll try to get to it before I move, hopefully on an early morning, when I’m at my best brain-wise.
Oh, HAPPY DANCE!!!! My chocolate-raspberry hot chocolate mix is scheduled for delivery today!
I LIKE winning prizes! <3 :o])
We have a couple dozen gecko that hang out on our porches to scarf the bug buffet. While we don't bother to name them, I do make sure to let them know that they are all welcome to hang out any time they like.
Now I'm going to have to start checking them for cameras.
Before you move would be nice, although I realize that’s a vague period.
Don’t forget to check them for radiation, too. We have anoles here, but geckos aren’t native.
