14 DAY TRIAL //
Security forces from Iran have recently captured and arrested two dangerous pigeons that posed a huge threat to the Iranian national security by spying on one of the many nuclear facilities of the country. The pair of birds, which have just raised terrorist operations to an even higher level, were caught by the military forces of the well-defended underground uranium enrichment plant in the city of Natanz, the Isfahan province.
A newspaper from Iran has quoted a source as claiming that one of the birds was “caught bearing a blue-coated metal ring, with invisible strings,” which the security forces representatives claim was discovered to be some sort of communication apparatus. Still, no further description of the victims of the arrest, nor other details related to the country or agency they worked for, what fate they should expect or the produced damage were offered.
This type of activity as is undergoing at the Natanz facility is associated by the officials from the western countries with the development of nuclear weaponry, in spite of the statements from the Tehran government officials that its goal is to provide power for public use.
This is not the first time that birds fall victim to such treatments and to nuclear-related activities. Seagulls from UK's Sellafield nuclear facility are shot by sharpshooters and thrown in freezers, because swimming in the contaminated waters renders them radioactive.
Currently, we are expecting an official statement related to the fate of the two pigeon individuals and to future defense plans on behalf of the Iranian authorities. As indicated by the site of the Greenpeace organization, which has also looked into the matter, the pigeon community has declined to make any comment. In light of this recent event, perhaps it would not seem too far-fetched for Iranian forces to prepare for a large scale US-developed espionage operation by means of platypuses and dragonflies.
