Isn’t it obvious why Egypt is one of the world’s leading nations?:

In a case that ruffled feathers in Egypt, authorities have detained a migratory bird that a citizen suspected of being a spy.

A man in Egypt’s Qena governorate, some 450 kilometres southeast of Cairo, found the suspicious bird among four others near his home and brought them to a police station Friday, said Mohammed Kamal, the head of the security in the region.

There, officers and the man puzzled over the electronic device attached to the suspected winged infiltrator. On Saturday, a veterinary committee called by concerned government officials determined the device was neither a bomb nor a spying device.

Instead, they discovered it was a wildlife tracker used by French scientists to follow the movement of migrating birds, said Ayman Abdallah, the head of Qena veterinary services. Abdallah said the device stopped working when the bird crossed the French border, absolving it of being an avian Mata Hari.

But wait, there’s more, says The Economist, highlighting what the Egyptian government says is an Israeli, Islamist, and Western plot to destroy Egypt:

As proof, Egypt’s best-selling daily, the privately owned al-Masry al-Youm, last week published a document purporting to be the original minutes of a recent secret meeting at an American base in the German city of Darmstadt. Intercepted by a brilliant Egyptian undercover operation, the document revealed a plan to subvert Egypt’s government, wreck its economy and stop the flow of the Nile using dams in Ethiopia “just as we succeeded in controlling the Euphrates valley with dams in Turkey”. The plotters agreed, among other things, that to achieve a level of chaos similar to Iraq and Syria, Egypt would require a “death rate” of perhaps 12,000 a month.

Oddly enough, this document was in Arabic, a language not used by any of the six powers supposedly represented: Israel’s intelligence service, Mossad; America’s National Security Agency; NATO’s high command; and security men from Britain, France and Germany. Strangely, this bombshell has produced no official response from any of the relevant governments, including Egypt’s.

This has not deterred the state-owned daily al-Ahram, long considered Egypt’s newspaper of record, from publishing yet more details of another supposed conspiracy. Quoting a range of retired Egyptian security officials, the paper’s August 27th and 28th editions suggested that Egypt faces a treacherous fifth column. A group of businessmen, journalists and politicians in the service of Western intelligence agencies is plotting to weaken the country, said the sources.

Only the Zionist ducks know for sure.
