human volunteers AKA Military Recruits LOL

[CommandoFrank]

Deploying a 50 cal. against them would be a cheaper solution.

And with no repeat offenders...

[Drammach]

We Freepers finally have a valid reason for wearing those tin-foil hats!!!

[Cvengr]

Cooks from the inside out...?

I suspect there will be quite a bit of damage not yet documented in future medical stats which the targets will never know about for decades or until the US will then assume liability similar to Agent Orange damages.

[jigsaw]

Maybe someday the military will be able to 'zap' an area and cause all the munitions to explode.

[Cvengr]

No need to repay evil with evil.

Our efforts have reduced the threat from that area to that similar to an inner city gang of malcontent youth. At least we don't have to worry as much about an aviation strike or SCUD missile attacks or compartmentalized WMD factories being established, accompanied by a dictator led third world military strike against various US interests in the area.

Now our interests under risk are more confined to within the borders of Iraq. All in all we're considerably ahead than before.

Perhaps what is more important in the American mindset is to recognize a military battle could result in the deaths of 1000s and not simply a handful on men as a worse case scenerio.

What happens when it's okayed for domestic use by police? ~ solitas

And I would bet a lot of money we'll see exactly that in my lifetime. ~ independentmind

100% guaranteed, I'd say. Otherwise the transnational lib-uh-rhuls would say it's a war crime to use a crowd control weapon on foreigners, if it's not safe enough to use on your own citizens/subjects...

[Drammach]

It does penetrate clothing..
The actual frequency is higher than that of a standard microwave oven..

[Labyrinthos]

"Asked if it is the kind of weapon that could be deployed against the raging mob that assassinated four U.S. security contractors in Fallujah yesterday, Col. Alexander responded, "Yes.""

What's wrong with the M16?

[Celtic Conservative]

"I think it is more like the "agonizer" device used in numerous Star Trek episodes'

Okay, works for me. What would work even better is a taped broadcast in arabic that if they keep up the shenanigans, we could easily turn it up from "defrost" to "cook"

Guaranteed to give 3rd degree burns on contact.

[solitas]

Something in StarTrek that caused agony...hmmm...like Shatner?

[Godfollow]

Can ya pop pop-corn with it?

[solitas]

When I first heard about that atrocity (for which there STILL hasn't been any retribution), I wanted to change the name of the city to "Nagasaki" and repeat history: I wanted to see sheets of skin peeling off burn victims, sightless eyesockets melted from the blast, combatants so shocked they couldn't even care about their own living, flies crawling over open eyes - everything you see in the old WWII images. I wanted to see total destruction, once and for all, as an object lesson to the rest of that dog-country.

[solitas]

93 Ghz has about a 3.2mm wavelength - foil or even copper windowscreen (not regular metallic screening 'cause the coated wires wouldn't make cross-contact where the warp touches the weft).

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

I like my terrorists extra-crispy.

[A CA Guy]

That's way too big a dish and will get shot up at great distances. Can it operate riddled with bullet holes?

[A CA Guy]

Why not at least rubber bullets?
