Pentagon Reveals Rejected Chamical Weapons

THE Pentagon considered developing a host of non-lethal chemical weapons that would disrupt discipline and morale among enemy troops, newly declassified documents reveal.

Most bizarre among the plans was one for the development of an "aphrodisiac" chemical weapon that would make enemy soldiers sexually irresistible to each other. Provoking widespread homosexual behaviour among troops would cause a "distasteful but completely non-lethal" blow to morale, the proposal says.

Other ideas included chemical weapons that attract swarms of enraged wasps or angry rats to troop positions, making them uninhabitable. Another was to develop a chemical that caused "severe and lasting halitosis", making it easy to identify guerrillas trying to blend in with civilians. There was also the idea of making troops' skin unbearably sensitive to sunlight.

The proposals, from the US Air Force Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio, date from 1994. The lab sought Pentagon funding for research into what it called "harassing, annoying and 'bad guy'-identifying chemicals". The plans have been posted online by the Sunshine Project, an organisation that exposes research into chemical and biological weapons.

Spokesman Edward Hammond says it was not known if the proposed $7.5 million, six-year research plan was ever pursued.

that's awesome.

Those are actually great ideas.

I'm off to buy a chemistry set.

Woah... think of the damage that could be done in a homophobes gathering .

[Baneblade]

Heh this was on another forum I frequent, their responces were decidedly...left.

I think the ideas for non violent bioweapons is fantastic, though sexual assault is considered violence...hmm

[Kyonye]

they definately shouldn't have rejected it

Drop it on the RNC. It's the same thing.

What I wouldn't give to have had that dropped on the 2004 RNC. A little Cheney-on-Arnold action. Sexay.

Tom Jones approves.

why not just force feed everybody ecstacy?

[Mr1337Duck]

Because it's tough to force feed someone who's shooting at you.

Now all I gotta do is put a bit of this stuff in some random hot chicks' food/water. I figure if it's powerful enough to turn a man gay, it's powerful enough to get some secksay lesbian action.

instead of the A bomb....they should start developing the X bomb......get it?

Wouldn't it be the Y-Bomb?
