"Al-Dunya TV aired a bizarre feature Sunday outlining how Barcelona transmitted details of effective smuggling routes that could be used to distribute arms to dissident fighters. The program repeated charges originally made in December. According to the TV reporter, the Barca side’s positioning on the field allegedly was deliberately set up to recreate a giant map, with players representing smugglers and the ball depicting a cache of arms.
"A run from Andres Iniesta is said to portray the first part of the route, while the end of the move, where superstar World Footballer of the Year Lionel Messi passes the ball, indicates the successful handover of the shipment, according to Al-Dunya."

A ha!! Stuff like this happened all the time during the Bush regime. For example, when an NFL official called a 5-yard penalty on the Raiders, it was a signal for our forces to mobilize in Afghanistan. A 15-yard penalty? We're moving on Iraq. A fumble that's ruled a forward pass? Look out, you banana republics. There's a coup d'etat coming.
