"Wanna hear the most annoying sound in the World?"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

....causes loss of sphincter control? The "brown noise."

OOOOOH !! Now there's an idea we can all get behind excited over into a lather about .....oh hell, sounds like a good idea.

It would be a nightmare to have a repeated and noisy "Macarena" played with this riot control device. It would be repeated in the brain for days.

Will some one ask the DJ for reggae?

[Reactionary]

No. It was Yoko Ono screeching about world peace.

[sheik yerbouty]

The jihadists do that by themselves, hence the phrase "nazis in filthy nightshirts".

"Israel uses sound technology for riot"

My nephew used to listen to "Quiet Riot," is this related? :)

Although the sound was not loud, it caused people to cover their ears and grab their heads in discomfort.

So the Israelis played a Barry Manilow CD.

"This was researched by the "Myth Busters" Adam & Jamie on the Discovery Channel. Result?... myth busted!!!"

There was an Air Force turboprop fighter prototype (XF-84H) known as the "Thunderscreech." The propeller produced hypersonic frequencies that caused "acute gastric distress" to anyone standing near the aircraft.

Hmmmmm. A very interesting post...doesn't he look a little like Zarqawi? I think you're on to something here.

Palestinians say the barrier is a thinly veiled land grab because it dips into the West Bank in some areas.

Why would Israel have to grab land it already won fair and square?

[A CA Guy]

His sounds though could be used to end the war on terror by making terrorist ears burst, even down in their caves and tunnels.

Don't you mean the XF-84H) varient of the Thunderstreak?

Between 22 July 1955 and 9 October 1956, two XF-84H prototypes (S/N 51-17059 and 51-17060) made twelve test flights. Eleven of the twelve flights ended in emergency landings. Sounds produced by the aircraft's turboprop engine caused nausea and headaches among ground crews, earning the XF-84H the unofficial nickname "Thunderscreech." Though the XF-84H was the fastest single-engine propeller driven aircraft ever built, it never approached supersonic speed. Due to poor performance and high maintenance requirements, the XF-84H never became operational.

Here's hoping that the injured Israeli soldier recovers full use of his eye.

Another alternative for rodent control is the Sonic Pest Chaser. The device emits a high-frequency sound that drives rodents crazy but cannot be heard by humans or pets!

BEtter moustrap.

[ Why not just rap music? ]

Rap is not music.. its "black" sound..

[FierceDraka]

What about the sound frequency that causes loss of sphincter control? The "brown noise."

I think that's F-flat minor.

=D

I predict there will be lawsuits, condemnations from the usual suspects like "mainstream" international organizations of Israelis using tortues that could "potentially protestors' hearing abilities".

LOL No kidding. I don't see any reason for them to complain; it's better than dispersing them with machine gun fire.
