#1 I'm surprised the donkeys aren't intercepted and new "goods" (bombs and/or tracking devices) placed on them, then resent on their mission. Killing the donkeys is just dumb.

#2 Donkeys are obsolete... the smugglers need to fund the Strategic Camel Initiative.

#3 Steve I needed a coffee alert for this one...

Donkeys wearing tape recorders that say Err Err Err = funny.

Killing said innocent donkeys = not funny

#4 The donkeys should be intercepted and loaded with bacon and other pork products, then sent on their way.

#5 The tape recorded messages need to be reprogrammed and the donkeys sent back whence they came, without the contraband, maybe just with a load of camel chips, or something of similar value.

#7 Uh oh, could islam be on the brink of deploying a GPS guided SmartDonkey?

LGE announced that the company has completed the development of a GPRS mobile phone (model: G5300) equipped with a compass and programmed to indicate direction.

#8 If they buy the islamic cell phones with GPS, here is what is going to happen: They will send the donkeys full of explosives and the donks will trot off to Mecca, where they will blow up.
