So we have a story built on rumor, with no named sources, quoting a media source of unknown origin. Personally, I think a clever monkey could be behind the whole thing.

NATO spokesman Lt. Col. Todd Breasseale told Schogol, “We have absolutely nothing that leads us to believe that this tale could be even remotely based in reality."

Christopher Coe, director of the Harlow Center for Biological Psychology, also is quoted as saying, “While you could train a monkey to shoot a gun, I certainly wouldn’t want to be anywhere in the neighborhood after that. I rather doubt you could trust its aim,” he said. “In addition, the noise would certainly scare most animals and make them stop.”
Coe added that he'd heard rumors before about monkeys wielding grenades when India and Pakistan were at war, but no one has yet been able to prove that actually happened.

What I have quoted is give or take 80% of the text in the entire article... you do read the stuff before you post it, right?
