Weapons of mass ... erm... whatever

Apparently, the US has investigated the potential creation of various. weapons on rather dubious premises. Among the top 10 were weapons that would make soldiers 'sexually irresisible to each other', a so-called 'love bomb'/'gay bomb'. They also considered a bomb which would make the enemy sensitive to sunlight, and a bomb that would give them bad breath... Whether this last one was really to 'identify them when they tried to blend in with a crowd' or merely to cause significant social unrest when they returned home (and potentially destroy their morale by making them sexually unapproachable) remains a matter of national security, no doubt.

Yep - strange as it may seem... here's the quote:

------------------------------------------------
The US military investigated building a "gay bomb", which would make enemy soldiers "sexually irresistible" to each other, government papers say.

So you have the time to research "gay" bombs but not e-mail your friends? For shame...

Hope you are doing well.
