Humor is where you find it! And then there is the absurd…….
Remember last year when a flock of Russian spies were uncovered, especially the sexy red head (oh so much I could say on that)…..you have seen all the gadgets on the 007 movies which enhances the operatives effectiveness…..but now there is a great twist to this……
BBC News is reporting…….
Saudi Arabian officials have “detained” a vulture on accusations of being a spy for Israel, media reports say.
The griffon vulture was carrying a GPS transmitter bearing the name of Tel Aviv University, prompting rumours it was part of a Zionist plot.
Last month, Egyptian officials implied the Israeli spy agency Mossad was to blame for shark attacks off its coast.
In December, the governor of Egypt’s South Sinai province, Mohamed Abdul Fadil Shousha, suggested the spy agency may have had a hand in a string of deadly shark attacks off the coast of the Sharm el-Sheikh resort.The vulture, which can have a wing span of up to 265cm (8ft 8in), was caught after it landed in the desert city of Hyaal a few days ago.
When locals discovered the GPS transmitter, they suspected the worst and handed it over to the security forces, said Israel’s Ma’ariv newspaper.
Conspiracy theories quickly began circulating in Saudi newspapers and on websites that the bird was involved in espionage.
This would give a whole new definition to the term “bird’s eye view”……..
Can a whole country be nominated for an analocity award?
Phillip: good question.
Lobotero: Where do you find this crap? Are you sure you don’t make it up yourself??? 😆
It prompts me to ask… “How backward ARE some of these people?” – Also, do you think that if the spying charge doesn’t stick, the bird might be alternatively charged with adultery or some other similarly heinous crime?
I swear…even my vivid imagination I could NOT come up with this stupidity….
How do you interrogate a bird? Waterboarding?
If you think about it, carrying a GPS unit as it was, the Israelis will now know where Saudi Arabia is… scary or what, eh? Perhaps they should have kept quiet about the “arrest” and maybe their location could have remained secret?
