As I've been away for some time, I don't know if anyone posted this before. I find it rather...amusing. I mean... it's... weird, that something like this was even conceived as a serious proposal to Pentagon... Oh, yes, there is also the amazing "halitosis" bomb and the "flatulence" bomb :-). [ROFL]

Welll... links here:

BBC

Wikipedia

The Wikipedia entry also show other links to the subjects.

It was never a serious proposal. It was an off-hand mention, as is obvious from the original text.

I've found Tequila works really well.

This is only further evidence that the U.S. military has borrowed some ideas from OSC, and is now using a group of brilliant 6th-graders to come up with their military strategies.

If this actually existed, would it be against any war morality to use it? Is the humiliation at having "gone gay" too psychologically torturing? I'd like to try this on some Islamofascists!

Off-hand or not, it wasn't meant to be taken as a joke when submitted to the Pentagon. Of course I don't think they actually went far with it, but the sheer fact that it was even considered is staggering. [ROFL]

Now I have all this weird visions about "The Stand" (Stephen King's book, you know?) but instead of the "Captain Trips" Superflu, we'd have another...chemical agent... oh, the humanity!

You guys laugh, but eventually one of these ideas sticks in a way it was never meant to.

I can't tell you how many things were designed for a purpose but are now used predominantly in a much different way.

But these alternate uses can be good or bad.

Look at dynamite and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WD40

Wild and rampant homosexuality?

Yes, kudos to Phillip, master of making the implicit explicit!

Don't know why you'd need to--no bomb you could invent would make them any more perverted than they already are. I was stationed in Balad for four months, and I can't tell you how much FLIR video we have of local nationals having their way with various types of livestock.

What if some of this was "accidentally" tested on various political and religious leaders throughout the country? I bet we'd have same-sex marriage laws in every state before you could say fabulous!

The USArmy would collapse when facing an enemy who's been GayBombed to Make Love, Not War.

"AAARRRGGGHHH!!! Medic! Medic! I've been kissed!"
Then at the field hospital...
"Sorry, son, we're gonna hafta discharge ya. We can't have soldiers engaging in public displays of affection for the same sex."
