A bear killed two militants after discovering them in its den in Indian-administered Kashmir, police say. Two other militants escaped, one of them badly wounded, after the attack in Kulgam district, south of Srinagar.
The militants had assault rifles but were taken by surprise – police found the remains of pudding they had made to eat when the bear attacked.
A lesson here: Militants + Pudding + Bear Cave = Bad Idea.
Perhaps I wasn’t quite so paranoid years ago while camping as a kid in the High Sierras? After all, a thin layer of tent-material wouldn’t exactly fend off a large Brown Bear as described above.
Of bears and terrrorists, Jim Moran yesterday:
U.S. Rep. James P. Moran Jr. (D-Va.) likened the Republican ticket in Virginia this year to Afghanistan’s radical Taliban movement in comments broadcast Sunday by WAMU radio.
At a get-out-the-vote rally in Fairfax County, Moran said: “I mean, if the Republicans were running in Afghanistan, they’d be running on the Taliban ticket as far as I can see.”
Could anything be any stranger these days?
New friend of the site, Political Byline has a great lineup of Bear-pics and a little snark on what the cave-dwellers in the wrong place at the right time must have said to eachother. Check out his post here. Visit his site here.

Maybe Obama could send bears to Afghanistan–nah that would upset PETA. Remember they were offended when he slapped the fly out of the air.
Proves that bears have better sense of what to do with these Taliban animals than our own politicians. I like to nominate that bear to run for office since he has more brains than every liberal in office. They would get the PETA vote, that's for sure.
