"The bees that were taken were a fairly angry lot
Catch the bee-knappers—set up a sting.
New world crops are probably OK without honeybees. Anything that came from Europe or Asia originally might have a problem.
Almost certainly Sherlock Holmes, an avid bee-keeper, is on the case.
Let me just ask you a question: how many arab beekeepers in the area??
Here, arabs seem to be moving into and taking over bee products.
Makes sense. They mastered the art of flea keeping, now on to bees. Or that's the buzz I hear anyway.
Bee Banditos
Beetoes?

The honey trade is big in the Arab world
Well, beekeeping hasn't changed much over the centuries. It's a perfect fit for that crowd.
Wow, their Lassos must be tiny
“It’s a perfect fit for that crowd.”
Except it’s one queen and lots of lazy drones.
Lazy drones is right. One honored queen is not.
Where’s the 72 virgin larvae?
I know this is a serious issue for some people, but I’m sorry, “Bee Rustlers add to misery of struggling hive owners”
is the funniest title for an FR thread I have ever read.
Ich bin ein Beekeeper
Yeah, perfect fit. They hate dogs but love bees.
Something about the “menacing swarm” appeals to them.
It’s sort of an analogy for the penetration of Islam into
the West.
From Slim Harpo;
“Well I’m a king bee, buzzing around your hive
Well I’m a king bee, buzzing around your hive
Well I can make honey baby, let me come inside
I’m young and able to buzz all night long
I’m young and able to buzz all night long
Well when you hear me buzzin’ baby, some stinging is going on
(well... buzz a while... sting it then...)
Well I’m a king bee, want you to be my queen
Well I’m a king bee, want you to be my queen
Together we can make honey, the world ever never seen
Well I’m a king bee, can buzz all night long
Well I’m a king bee, can buzz all night long
Well I can buzz better baby, when your man is gone “
