The Anti Banana Society Today announced it had attempted to take over the world but it's plans were foiled due to an as of yet unknown error.
"We recently downgraded our systems from Linux To Windows 2000 because we're kind hearted and thought it'd give the bananas a chance of survival, but we didn't expect this", I said in an interview today. "We were about to begin out secret plans when explorer crashed. Drwatson, the program that is supplied by Microsoft to tell you why it crashed, also crashed so we were stuck in the middle of the Indian ocean and had to be rescued by the Pakistani Navy". It is also unclear at this point why the ABS attack fleet was in the middle of an ocean.

Similar Anti Banana Society attacks have had mixed success. The battle of watermellonloo in which the watermellons were liberated from the bananas, "custards last stand" were the banana's destroyed custard, and Pearl Harbor where the ABS saved Pearls from the Japanese/Banana alliance.

The ABS plans to continue extermination of the Bananas with little mercy. All systems have been upgraded again back to Linux (but with the 2.3 kernel, rather than 2.2) running SGI O2 workstations that were bought off ebay for a bargain price.
