Gay bomb, halitosis fill the rejected chemical weapons list

You tell me whether this is true or false:

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.

Other ideas included chemical weapons that attract swarms of enraged wasps or angry rats to troop positions, making them uninhabitable. Another was to develop a chemical that caused ‘severe and lasting halitosis’, making it easy to identify guerrillas trying to blend in with civilians. There was also the idea of making troops’ skin unbearably sensitive to sunlight.

I dunno about this one guys. A gay bomb? Potions that attract not just wasps and rats, but enraged wasps and angry rats?

I smell a rat all right. Or maybe a gay rat with halitosis who had a run in with some enraged wasps?
