US military wanted 'sex bomb'
Herald Sun ^ | January 14, 2005 | By Milanda Rout

A "SEX bomb" that would make enemy soldiers irresistible to each other was considered by the US military.

Declassified documents reveal the Pentagon toyed with the idea of an aphrodisiac chemical weapon in 1994.

The gas would have made enemy soldiers sexually irresistible to each other. The weapon's developers said homosexual behaviour among troops would deal a "distasteful but completely non-lethal" blow to morale.

The plans, unearthed from a US air force laboratory in Ohio, were published in New Scientist magazine.

Deemed an abject failure against the French military and their life partners.

For the Iraqi army, this would be totally unnecessary.

"Clinton desired to see if it would work on female personnel - preferably between 180 and 200 pounds"

I don't believe this, for the simple reason that no one can predict what the effect of creating widespread homosexual attraction among enemy troops would have on the enemy's fighting capabilities.

Just go to a moveon.org meeting and observe.
