Obama revealed the request for the return of the drone–which fell to earth in Iran recently, and has since been flaunted in video footage by the Iranian government–during a Monday White House news conference. “We’ve asked for it back,” President Obama said. “We’ll see how the Iranians respond. With respect to the drone inside of Iran, I’m not going to comment on intelligence matters that are classified.”
Other statements made today by Obama include:
–Iran cannot ask us to return any intelligence info our drones gathered.
–Iraq should return all the bullets (and depleted uranium) fired at it since 2003.
–Iran should not ask the US to return any hostages previously returned.
–Iran can’t fly any drones over the US until they return our broken one.
–Joe Biden should return his Netflix movies.
–Return of the Drone would be a good movie title.
How do you say “when pig-shaped drones fly?” in Farsi anyway?

1Has anyone wondered if the US purposely intended for the drone to be seized by Iran? Perhaps just to see what Iran would do with it, or to retrieve remote data with the drone? In other words, the drone is more or less a trojan horse that the Iranians believe they seized.
