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 behaviour among troops would cause a "distasteful but completely non-lethal" blow to morale, the proposal says.Now I was trying to find a good Izzard quote that could accompany this (click that link for a few more very strange weapons), but all I found was this great line discussing the difference between English and American English.Now, You say 'erbs' and we say 'herbs' because there's a fucking h in it!Damn right, Eddie.

Whether it's being played on National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation or Dexter Sy's notoriously rare Nintendojo Holiday movie, this one hits me ::points to heart:: right here. ::bites lip, lowers voice to a whisper:: Right here.
