Iran Completes Military Exercise by Carving Giant Sudoku Puzzle Into Sand Around Afghanistan Border
Iran has been flexing its military muscles recently after sanctions were levied against them.Â  TheyÂ strongly cautioned US naval ships to stayÂ away and just completedÂ additional military exercises on the border of Afghanistan.Â  Iranian leaders confirmed that they did order theirÂ troops to draw a large Sudoku puzzle in the sand for the Afghanâs to âchew on.â Hamid Karzai, President of Afghanistan, had this news relayed to him while he was reading to children in Kabul.Â  Karzai quickly left the school, after saluting the children.Â  Afghan intelligence was quickly called upon to see what this thing was all about.Â  âIâm still reading the fuckingÂ rule book,â commentedÂ an angry and frustratedÂ top level official.Â  âMy team is telling me that people do this shit for fun?Â  That is very bad.Â  Very bad.Â  We need to figure out this puzzle to make sure Iran is not sending some sort of hidden message but I can assure you that these puzzles will not ever make it to our citizens.â Afghan border guards seemed to pick it up pretty quickly.Â  Two men were heard arguing about whether a #2 would fit in the 3rd column and the 4th row.Â  Unfortunately, the argument escalated and one man was shot and killed.Â  It wonât help the popularity of the game in Afghanistan.Â  Thatâs for sure. âItâs an unprecedented move by a confident Iran,â says John Brennan, director of the CIA in the United States.Â  âWeâve got our eyes on them.Â  Weâre prepared to send in delta force units to go in and solve the puzzle for Afghan leaders if this tensions between the two countries continue to heighten.Â  If thereâs going to be another war out there, we want to make sure that weâre part of it.â
