    US Deploy robo-grunts.

    THE US ARMY is deploying the first robotic soldiers in Iraq next month. More than 18 of the remote-controlled robotic snipers, with machine guns for noses, will go into action.

    Had to happen sooner or later, I still find the whole idea very chilling. They should be able to invade a country without leaving the 'homeland' in 100 years, maybe less.

    Clever stuff!

    Well the general idea I mean, not that they are armed to the hilt.

    Still, wouldnt mind one for my birthday.

    They should stick a few down the Bigg Market on a Friday night, would probably calm things down....

    It will be like Terminator 2 in no time!
