] An UFO-related incident that occurred four years ago ] poses a troubling question whether any kind of ] cooperation is possible between Iraqi dictator Saddam ] Hussein and extraterrestrials, UFOlogist Joseph Trainor ] declared in his review UFO Roundup (issue 51 of December ] 17, 2002). On December 16, 1998, during Operation Desert ] Fox against Iraq, a video clip aired on CNN showed a UFO ] hovering over Baghdad; it moved away to avoid a stream of ] tracer anti-aircraft fire. At that time we all thought it ] was another UFO sighting, although captured on videotape. ] But now, ufologists think it was much more than a mere ] incident. Al Queda connection? Phbttt.. No, worse then that. ALIENS!! ] The aliens took ordinary desert scorpions and used their ] bio-engineering to grow the scorpions to giant size. ] Scorpions of a cow-size! They are wonderful watchdogs: ] they blend in with the desert, swiftly and silently move ] on their warm-blooded prey for a decisive attack. ] Luckless intruders hear just some strange sound from ] behind stones, then a pincer crushes their necks, ] another pincer crushes their legs; then the victims is ] slammed to the ground and beaten with a barbed tail six ] or seven times. Death comes almost immediately. "The enemy we're fighting is different from the one we'd wargamed against." |
