Human military paralyzed

Big and scary to be replaced with cute and fuzzy.

It has recently been revealed that the robotic forces are launching a new strategy for world domination.

This is the first activity from behind robot lines since 1999, when they abandoned the old strategy of "overwhelming and terrifying force". Military analysts believe the timing of this tactical reverse was not a coincidence, coming on the heels of the release of The Matrix. It has been widely speculated that the robots were embarrassed into hiding, after letting us come up with the Matrix idea first.

However, leaked robotic memos reveal that they are planning a new offensive, dubbed "Insidious Cuteness". They plan to release thousands of sleeper agents into the heart of human territory, using cuteness as a disguise. Extensive research having shown that human are incapacitated when confronted with things that are small and fluffy. An anonymous military source commented: "This is completely unprecedented, our response plans are all based on the plot of Matrix Revolutions. We're screwed."

A video shows how the robots plan to begin their offensive in Japan, the Japanese believed to be the most susceptible to cuteness.

The robot's disguise technology has advanced significantly since early attempts.
