Monkey see, monkey kill.

Taliban terrorists have a secret weapon to destroy the infidel American enemy--monkey marksmen. According to The People's Daily in China, the Taliban in Afghanistan is "training monkeys to attack American troops."

The newspaper's bizarre story says the Islamic insurgents have drafted macaques and baboons to be all they can be, arming them with AK-47 rifles, machine guns, and trench mortars in the Waziristan tribal region near the border region between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

The monkeys, being rewarded with bananas and peanuts, are being turned into snipers at a secret Taliban training base. The newspaper days "photos have been widely spread by media agencies and Web sites across the world." One of those sites is the Pakistan Defense Forum, which has pictures of gun-toting monkeys, and makes the wild claim that a monkey-soldier program was first launched by the CIA in Vietnam.

"Today, the Taliban forces have given the American troops some of theie own medicine," The People's Daily said.

Sadly, this website does much to dispell the rumour
