Dozens of spy planes UFO sightings excite Iran

The latest location on planet Earth to be hit with UFO fever is Iran, as dozens of sightings have been reported in recent days in the Islamic republic.
It’s just to easy, isn’t it?
According to Reuters, state-run television today broadcast a sparkling white disc flying over the capital of Tehran, saying it was filmed last night.
Keep working on the reactors and you will know exactly what is flying overhead.
People were reported rushing out into the streets in eight towns last night to watch a bright "extraterrestrial light dipping in and out of the clouds."
Say cheez! You’re on CIA sattlite.
The Islamic Republic News Agency also reports colorful objects seen beaming out green, red, blue and purple rays over the northern cities of Tabriz and Ardebil and in the Caspian Sea province of Golestan.
We are just practicing our Death Ray tactics. No need to be concerned. Move along.
An air force officer in the Revolutionary Guards was quoted in the reformist Vagha-ye Etefaghiyeh daily saying Iran’s Supreme National Security Council should investigate whether these visitors from afar had hostile intent, according to Reuters.
Oh, I think you’ll know when hostility begins. The flashy lights will be followed by large explosions and an even more colorful display of yellows, oranges, and black.

#1  So, has somebody plagiarized Dick Clarke's wacky freak-the-Libyans plot from the Reagan administration? The white disc could be one of the smaller UAV variants up-sized, but the colorful lightshow sounds like psyops showmanship. The stuff that Fox was airing last night was cliche enough that I was half-sure that it had been lifted & colorized from a particularly lame 50s drive-in SF movie.

I wonder if there are empty zodiac boats washing up around the Iranian oil transshipment terminals that we're not hearing about…
