Kabul, July 15: The US-led forces fighting the Taliban fighters in Afghanistan might soon encounter 'gun-toting' monkeys, trained for 'jihad', if a rumor doing the rounds in the Chinese media is to be believed. 

The New York Post cited the state-run People's Daily as saying that the Taliban is "training monkeys to use weapons to attack American troops". 

"... The Taliban forces have tried any possible means and figured out a method to train monkeys as 'replacement killers' against American troops," Stars and Stripes quoted the Chinese daily as saying.

The militants were arming the primates with AK-47 rifles, machine guns and trench mortars in the Waziristan tribal region bordering Pakistan and Afghanistan, it claimed.

This is no joke. You know the world is coming to an end when you wake up and a kangaroo is in your kitchen eating cereal. I think that is actually one of the seven signs written about in the bible.

I know I just wrote about this recently but this story really happened. Maybe I have some special powers and what I write about actually comes true. Some poor family out there may just wake up and get mauled to death by a Rosie O’Donnell. I pray that doesn’t happen.

The Jockeys’ scientific name is littleous personous and they are part of the buzzard family.
