more news, zionist animal edition

An Egyptian official believes that Israel's intelligence agency might be behind the fatal shark attack of a German tourist in Sinai over the weekend, the Jerusalem Post reports. "What is being said about the Mossad throwing the deadly shark (in the sea) to hit tourism in Egypt is not out of the question, but it needs time to confirm," South Sinai Gov. Muhammad Abdel Fadil Shousha told egynews.net.

Saudi Arabian security services have captured a vulture suspected of being a Mossad spy from Israel. The bird, complete with a GPS transmitter and a tag bearing the identification code R65 from Tel Aviv University, strayed into rural Saudi Arabian territory at some point last week, according to a report in the Israeli daily Ma'ariv. Locals apparently suspected a Zionist plot, or at the very least espionage, and alerted the security services.

I guess there is some precedent to this paranoia. Iran arrested squirrels for spying a few years ago. I bet if we dig deep enough we'll find out that monkeys caused Lehman Bros to collapse.

Anyway....let me use this animal blog to send Mushu some love, get better quick little guy!
