Here’s a good item for a Friday:
NewsScientist.com reveals an interestingly-worded Pentagon proposal floated in President Bill Clinton’s 1994 United States. It’s a 6-year plan to study chemical weapons for warfare.
I have no solid Dan Rather-CBS News-strength proof, but I have a feeling the chemical was in fact tested at the Democratic Convention in the U.S. and the Liberal Party convention here.
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 behavior among troops would cause a “distasteful but completely non-lethal” blow to morale, the proposal says.
As I said, it’s the wording (“‘distasteful but completely non-lethal’ blow to morale”), as much as the wacky idea itself.
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.
Anybody who was at the Democratic or Liberal convention would obviously have to testify that it was in fact tested there.
Let’s go to air with this!
