Military Lab Proposed Gay-Aphrodisiac Chemical Weapon


Thanks to a FOIA request from the Sunshine Project
<http://www.sunshine-project.org/> , a fascinating document has now come
to light. In June 1994, the US Air Force Wright Laboratory wrote a
proposal titled "Harassing, Annoying, and 'Bad Guy' Identifying
Chemicals." While listing the categories of chemical weapons they
planned to develop, the military scientists wrote:

Chemicals that effect [sic] human behavior so that discipline and morale
in enemy units is adversely effected [sic]. One distasteful but
completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially
if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior.

The Air Force Lab was quite serious about the proposal, listing a
timetable and estimate of expenses for the overall project. 

Total cost through fiscal year 2000: $7.5 million 

Having enemy soldiers throw down their guns and start humping each
other: Priceless
