The Taliban Imposter

In case you missed it, the Nato-led Coalition of the Reluctant, who engaging in Operation Why Are We Still Here in Afghanistan, thought they were negotiating with a representative of the Taliban. As it turned out, the representative was an imposter. Some critics have said the negotiators should've realized it was an imposter when he asked for "a schmeer of lox" on his bagel. The Taliban imposter also complained that it was "too hot" and that his beard was "itchy."

Witnesses have described the Taliban imposter as "looking like Woody Allen with a beard." His real name is Brian Schneiderberg from Long Island. He works in his dad's belt business and loves baseball, particularly the Mets. Schneiderberg said he traveled to Afghanistan and disguised himself as a representative of the Taliban so his mother would have "something to brag about when talking to Sarah Moskowitz's mother."

Schneiderberg is charged with impersonating the enemy. If convicted, his punishment will be the removal of his earring.
