Muslim Insurgents Mauled to Death by Bear After Hiding Out in Its Den

By Chad Love

Looks like the U.S. military needs to expand its recruiting efforts...

From the story: Muslim Insurgents Mauled to Death by Bear After Hiding Out in Its Den
Two armed Muslim insurgents picked the wrong cave to hide out in after they were both killed by a bear. The men were carrying AK-47 assault rifles as they sought refuge in Indian administered Kashmir, but were taken by surprise by the giant carnivore. Two other militants were also injured by the Himalayan black bear, but managed to escape and make their way to a village near Srinagar.

Colonel Brar, Srinagar defence spokesman, said: 'Both bodies were mauled badly by some wild animal, and apparently by a bear, as the area is inhabited by Himalayan black bear. "The attack seems to have been so violent that both the militants got no chance to fire back at the wild animal." A joint team of police and soldiers recovered the two bodies, as well as Kalashnikov assault rifles and some ammunition.

See the Bears are on Our Side! Seems that while this may not have been "yer average bear" it was still quite able to out terrorize the terrorists. I have always supported the Right to Arm Bears and our military has used dogs for years, why not bears?
I can see it now (through Pushtun translator) "You got 10 seconds to come out and surrender or we're sickking the bear on you!" It would be like in the "golden compass" but the bears would wear digital camo and not get any lines! This story amused the poop out of me, One for the Bears! Yea!

Is it me, or did they pick the wrong cave to hide out in BEFORE they were both killed by a bear?
Seems like afterward it doesn't matter as much.
Still praise to the bears.
I am sure the one bear said to the other, "Muslim extremists, taste like chicken!!!

The heck with putting all those "terrorist detainees" from Gitmo at the max security at Florence, CO. Let's just turn 'em loose in the Sangre de Christos and tell them it's gonna snow that night, and to hunt for a cave.
As for a medal for the bear, "Bronze Star" etc would that be Ursa Major???

Considering some of the caves I crawled through back when I used to go spelunking, I would think that a full auto AK would be worse than useless underground, FMJ bullets ricochet every which way. Perhaps something like them .50 Casull revolvers loaded with frangible ammo might do it, or a shotgun with a short barrel. At any rate they were likely ambushed and likely didn't even see the bear in the cave darkness until Mr. Bear had the range for his natural weapons. Caves are very dark and if you fire that AK the muzzle flash is going to blind you as the blast deafens you. Course that is gonna be the case with the Casull revolver too...Perhaps that rotonone tipped crossbow bolt...
Heck I'm glad they didn't have one of those! Go Bear!
Point of fact, I don't think you could find a better candidate for tunnel clearing than trained bears. Timothy Treadwell could have had a patriotic calling!
