Brain Drain

Forget about guns, tanks, planes, and all those other cool things that blow people up. In the future, wars are going to be all about mind control.

At least, that's what the Department of Defense said in a recently-released report. One of the coolest/most frightening proposals was for a "pharmacological landmine" which could release mind-altering drugs on unsuspecting enemies.

Just imagine: with a few LSD-stuffed grenades, we could transform brutal jihadniks into peace-loving hippies! Instead of carrying guns, our special forces could carry rainbow-colored beads, sunflowers, and vinyl copies of "Dark Side of the Moon." Iraq would be pacified in weeks! It would give new meaning to "make love, not war."
