Yes, it's an idea whose time has come. While the US designs little robots to accompany troops in Afghanistan to carry extra equipment, the Israelis are testing llamas.

I suppose the advantage is that they are cheaper than robots, probably more reliable, and in a pinch, you can eat them.

Whatever your politics, you must admit, the Israeli forces are strong, resourceful, and unpredictable.

(Many years after the overthrow of Wilson, a rebel soldier crouching
high on a hilltop above the war torn forests of Gamehendge spots a
group of loyalists approaching from their lakeside encampment below.

His trusty llama stands beside him, loaded down with a canvas pack
that holds two large bazooka type guns to the animal's sides. Near the
man sits a cache of blastoplast, each capable of destroying the entire
hillside in an instant...)

Sunrise over the turquoise mountains
Messenger birds in sight
They came up through the valley
Both sides at a time
Through the cold steady rain
Raid!
I bend down
Poke a double decker on a llama
Taboot
Llama, Taboot Taboot
Trigger a blastoplast, ramshackle laker recedes
I start to run
It was the loudest thing I'd ever heard
And I knew my time had come
To enter the delta

Leave it on press [2x]
Depress, Depress
Llama, Taboot Taboot
Leave it on press
Depress, Depress
Llama, Taboot Taboot

Llama, Taboot Taboot
Llama, Taboot Taboot
Taboot Taboot
Taboot Taboot
Taboot

Oh. My. Good... everything!!!

Llamas! Their hour has come! I can't wait to hear reports of them in action! And I hearby delcare that all such should be dubbed 'Attack of Awesome!' for verily that is what they will be.

This has actually made my day :D

First they'll be carrying the equipment, next they'll be using it, then it won't be long until they're planning the missions and eventually they'll be running the country and we will be their slaves. It's a slippery slope I tell you.:eek:

I question the loyalty of the Llama. I'd much rather have an army of kodiaks in combination with an army of rabid wolves.
