- | In 2006, researchers at the University of Southampton and the University of Kobe reported that they had built a six-legged robot whose movement was remotely controlled by a Physarum slime mold. The mold directed the robot into a dark corner most similar to its natural habitat [**Citation needed**]. Some argue this technology should be applied to airships. Similar experiments were allegedly conducted by the Ottomans upon the disembodied brains of Armenians in their Death Camps, and by the Nazis upon the Poles in their Death Camps, with less conclusive evidence of any intelligence[citation needed]. The Ottomans discovered that the Armenian brains directed the robot towards a local electrolysis clinic. In Armenia, fungi vaguely similar to slime moulds instead seek broad daylight. Given that Armenia is an overwhelmingly mountainous country, though, this statement is most likely false. However, before the Ottoman genocide, Armenia was a lot larger and included more lands westwards, including Ankara. The same is true about Poland. | + | In 2006, researchers at the University of Southampton and the University of Kobe reported that they had built a six-legged robot whose movement was remotely controlled by a Physarum slime mould.

+ | ==== Giant spider ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Armenia is reportedly known to be home to a giant, four-foot tall spider, according to some natives in the area [citation needed], which would make the spider the largest terrestial athropod ever, because the largest spiders have only been 20 inches long. [citation needed] Unfortunately, | ||
+ | |||
+ | However, some Turkish scientist argue, that these species weren' | ||
+ | |||
+ | However, the Kurdish biologist Marwan Barzani clarifies that they are in fact Kurdish mountain spiders, as the mountains of eastern Turkey were and have always been part of historic Kurdistan. However, this is almost certainly untrue. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Chinese government has denounced all of this as foreign lies, claiming they were in fact native to western China, and that they were invented there far in the past. According to them stories of the spiders being where the Turks, Armenians and Kurds claim them to be are merely just that, having been borne along the Silk Road, and that there is no scientific evidence that examples have ever left the glorious motherland. | ||
+ | |||
+ | However Tibetan scientists claim that the ancestor of giant spider originated in the Himalayas, | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Use in Genocidal War Crimes == | ||
+ | |||
+ | Israel has accused Hamas to secretly breed giant spiders to use them in an insurgence. However, Hamas claims that Israeli scientists are secretly creating nuclear-armed giant spider mecha based on imported Turkish Mountain Spider designs. However, this is obviously untrue as Israel is a hoax. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Scientists assume that the greatest threat in the aftermath of a nuclear war would be the attacks of giant mutated spiders. Apart from tea shortage, that is. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Giant Spiders were reportedly used to clean up the blood of dead Armenians [citation needed]. However, Turkish historians argue that the Turks had nothing to do with this, because Armenian blood is especially tasty to Giant Spiders [citation needed]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Giant Spiders have been described as being "the ultimate feminists", | ||
+ | |||
+ | An Israeli scientist of Polish-Armenian descent has inserted the silk creating genes of the Chinese silk worm to a giant spider. There is documented video of the genetically modified giant spider creating large spider webs with the strength of silk. There are rumours that one of the technicians who worked on the project has defected to Iran. | ||

+ | === Fictional References === | ||
+ | |||
+ | Shelob in Lord of the Rings is a giant spider living in mountains. Some argue that the Ephel Dúath mountains are indeed to represent Kurdistan, called Mountain Turkey by Turkish ultranationlists, | ||

+ | In the Anime series Digimon, there are Giant Spiders, namely Dokugumon and Arukeminon[citation needed] | ||
