Al-Qaeda Returns 10,000 Surge Protectors

In what is being called a "big misunderstanding," terrorists in Iraq are returning 10,000 surge protectors, purchased in the hopes they would help fight the US troop surge that has begun in Iraq.

Al-Qaeda purchased the devices from an unnamed online merchant in late April. "They just haven't worked out like we hoped," said a spokesman. "Those troops just keep right on surging."
