Document Dump #2: Make (Gay) Love, Not War

This document actually got a little bit of press when it was released by the Sunshine Project (I believe it was in 2005) through a Freedom of Information Act request. In 1994 the Wright Laboratory in Ohio, a predecessor to today's United States Air Force Research Laboratory, produced a three-page proposal on a variety of possible nonlethal chemical weapons.

While the proposal includes a "halitosis bomb" and insect attractants, the real highlight is:

"One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behaviour."

The project was budgeted for $7.5 million over 6 years. It remains unknown what results were achieved and if the project was ever cancelled.
