Iranians Smash Squirrel Spy Ring

This hilarious story is from Sky News:


Police in Iran are reported to have taken 14 squirrels into custody
- because they are suspected of spying.
The rodents were found near the
Iranian border allegedly equipped with eavesdropping devices.
The reports
have come from the official Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA).
When asked
about the confiscation of the spy squirrels, the national police chief said: "I
have heard about it, but I do not have precise information."


My favorite quote comes from the British Foreign Office-"The story is nuts."

Expat Yank asks- When will they be paraded on Iranian TV?
