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.
The Washington Times ran a story yesterday,on some country in Africa training large rats to locate landmines, complete with photo. They are supposedly able to detect them in the ground.
Now, Achmedgenocide is nuts, so the spy-squirrels were definitely going after him, for dinner.
Where is PETA now that we need them?
Iran must have Squirrel Interrogation Personnel.
I’m never disappointed clicking on threads like these.
The Iranians have no idea of our capabilities. With our nano technology; we have weaponized squirrels, birds, insects.
We have weaponized crickets that can bore through titanium.
They are everywhere in Iran.
When Dick Cheney pushes the red button, many things and people will go poof.
IIRC there were reports we used giant spiders when we invaded Iraq. Badgers, spiders, now squirrels, those mid-easterners have imagination.
