"Gay Bomb"
Pentagon officials confirmed that in 1994 the U.S. Military considered and then rejected a proposal to build a "hormone bomb" that would transform enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in having sex with one another than fighting. The Air Force lab requested $7.5 million to research the gay bomb. And while the military says the notion was ruled out quickly, Edward Hammond of Berkeley's Sunshine Project, a watchdog group tracking military spending, says there was more consideration involved: "The truth of the matter is it would have never come to my attention if it was dismissed at the time it was proposed. In fact, the Pentagon has used it repeatedly and subsequently in an effort to promote non-lethal weapons, and in fact they submitted it to the highest scientific review body in the country for them to consider."
