U.S. Run By Aliens, Claims Iran's FARS News

Iranian's state news agency, FARS News, believes the U.S. is run by aliens. Yes indeedy, those sci-fi extraterrestrials from outer space apparently form a shadow government that runs the country alongside its human counterpart. And where did they get that idea from? Edward Snowden.

FARS says Edward Snowden told Glenn Greenwald (The Guardian) that there

“were actually two governments in the United States, the one that was elected, and the other, secret regime, governing in the dark.”

Snowden was probably referring to what some conspiracy theorists believe to be the "Illuminati', and as far as I know they aren't supposed to be little gray thingies with bug eyes. Of course it probably didn't help that Canadian former Defense Minister Paul Hellyer (who believes in UFOs and that aliens live among us) has claimed that Snowden's "revelations" were "accurate."

Then you have the actual FARS news source on whatdoesitmean.com as reported by Sorcha Faal. Not that FARS is very good at vetting its sources. Remember when FARS plagiarized the satire site "The Onion" that claimed white Americans preferred Mahmoud Ahmadinejad over Barack Obama, or that Facebook was a front for the CIA?

Oh, and one of the many species of aliens living on our planet was instrumental in the rise of Hitler.

Can we now just stop blaming everything on the "aliens" instead of the Jews and the Zionists? Please?
