We already have the A-bomb and the H-bomb.  As part of its program for developing non-lethal weapons, the Pentagon has confirmed that it once had plans for the G-bomb – "G" as in "gay."  The proposed Gay Bomb would not kill and incinerate indiscriminately like the other two. Instead of being a weapon of mass destruction, this one was supposed to be a weapon of mass seduction. The Air Force lab asked for 7.5 million dollars to develop a hormone bomb which would turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals, more interested in having sex with each other than waging war on us! Wow! This puts a whole new twist on the 60s protest slogan "Make Love, Not War."

BERKELEY : A Berkeley watchdog organization that tracks military spending said it uncovered a strange U.S. military proposal to create a hormone bomb that could purportedly turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.

Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then subsquently rejected, building the so-called "Gay Bomb."

As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."

The documents show the Air Force lab asked for $7.5 million to develop such a chemical weapon.

The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soliders to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another," Hammond said after reviwing the documents.

"The notion was that a chemical that would probably be pleasant in the human body in low quantities could be identified, and by virtue of either breathing or having their skin exposed to this chemical, the notion was that soliders would become gay," explained Hammond.
