TEHRAN (Reuters) - An Iranian news agency said on Tuesday that a U.S. military aircraft had violated Iranian territory unintentionally and had been forced to land in Iran.
The semi-official Fars News Agency did not say when the incident happened.
It said five senior U.S. military officials had been interrogated at an Iranian airport and released a day later after it became clear the U.S. plane had not entered intentionally.

Liberalguy -- As a former Air Force officer, I was able to look at the report on the Iranian News Agency (FARS) web site and reach the conclusion that the Iranians are trying to perpetrate a hoax. I outline it all in a post this morning.
