| Forces disarm explosives-laden donkeys |
| 2006-11-02 |
| IRAQI security forces patrolling near the Iranian border found six donkeys carrying dozens of high-explosive anti-tank mines, the US military said. The military said two men fled the scene in the religiously mixed Diyala province where the insurgency was active. It was not clear from the statement where the donkeys, a common form of transport in the region, had come from. The statement said Iraqi forces seized 53 Russian- and Italian-made anti-tank landmines and one anti-tank projectile. “The donkeys were later released unharmed into the local area,” the military said. |

| #11 lol, Scott. Makes me think of the slap on the wrist letter that PETA sent Yassir Arafish (before he became "stable") about a donkey that was harmed by a suicide bomber. Of course, no mention of the Joooooos that were killed also. |

| #8 The weapons were a ruse to get the animals past the Mullahs to the brothels where the real money is made. |
