Droning on and on

The news of an Iranian unit taking command of a US drone in eastern Iran has to be "spun" by Washington in some way, so here are some suggestions for "spin":
1) The alleged drone was actually a full-size, decoy, cardboard kite that was supposed to fly into Iran as part of a secret, clever Pentagon plan (that cannot be revealed in any way).
2) The drone was purposely let into Iran by the US as an extension of the highly successful “Fast and Furious” programme that let lethal US weapons fall into the hands of Mexican drug cartels.
3) The drone was ordered to be let into Iran purposely by the Lord of the Drones, US Vice President Joe Biden (codenamed, Drone Vadar), loaded with hours and hours of videotapes of VP Biden droning on and on, in an effort to drive Iranian officials stark raving bonkers.
4) The drone was actually an illusion created by magician David Copperfield, and the Iranians have been hypnotised at long-distance, by psychic Uri Geller, to believe it is part of a secret, clever Israeli plan (that cannot be revealed in any way).
5) The US drones are actually built by a Chinese sub-contractor in Tibet and some of the circuitry was soldered wrong, causing the drone to go out of control. So, if the Iranians want to get it working properly, they will have to go to China to get the parts replaced.
6) The US computer operator of the drone was watching “Dancing With The Stars” on TV at the time and kind of forgot about it.
7) British Petroleum is at fault!
