UFOs Over IsfahanIt seems we're flying drones into Iranian skies to sniff around for nukes, and maybe learn what we can about the Iranian radar system. We've been doing it for a year. The story unraveled in December when Iranian villagers reporting UFOs became a national story:
The drones were first spotted by dozens of Iranian civilians and set off a national newspaper frenzy in late December over whether the country was being visited by UFOs. I've been saying for a long time now that if anyone's responsible for UFO sightings around here, it's us. I just didn't realize the Pentagon was so intimately involved. Pravda publicized the Iranian sightings last month; here's another hysterically straight-faced Pravda report about the Soviet army engaging UFOs during the Cold War. It would all be just ticklesome if the drones in Iran weren't a prelude to war plans, which CNN -- duly, mysteriously -- keeps hyping.
