Monkey attack in Libya sparks tribal clashes that kill more than a dozen
Three men turn a pet monkey loose on a schoolgirl, prompting retaliation that escalates into use of tanks and mortars

It's really sad, I knew that "monkey", and to hear of him simply being categorized as the "Monkey" does him a disservice. Sure Bonzo had trouble with authority, but which Monkey does not? Unlike his [Muslim] tribal neighbors Bonzo was bright and articulate, being able to count past ten and fluent in both Arabic and Gibbon, though to be honest both languages sound like they have a common derivative.

Bonzo was a most productive member of his community, in fact too productive unlike his male tribal counterparts - which is the real reason I believe for Bonzo's cruel fate. Good-bye Bonzo, you were far too good for your society! And it's such an advanced society with such an impressive culture, dominated by such a peaceful religion.

I bet the Colonel is currently laughing his ass out down there in the comfy boiling cauldron in Hell.

One of the comments sticks out:

"If paradise is the destination, what are they all waiting for? Why not shout 'allahu akbar' into the mirror at home and drink a tall glass of drain cleaner? It is in the service of their god, so they are still martyrs but they're disrespecting him by not doing it right now. Right now. I'll wait while they go do it. ... If you could martyr yourself in the bathtub, that would make cleanup so much easier. kthxbye."

Dailyquote:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
