In The News: Travus is taking the news morning off but there IS commentary.
In the interim, there is one matter Da' Buffalo would like to highlight: Lean Mean (Drugged) Killing Machines - HR3256, The Psychological Kevlar Act of 2007
Pentagon's new lethal weapon Sun, 20 Jan 2008 22:55:17
The US Department of Defense's wide-ranging 'warfighter enhancement program' is preparing grounds for the most lethal weapon ever.
Pentagon's 'the Psychological Kevlar Act of 2007' puts forward the idea of using different drugs to insulate combat soldiers from the stressful psychological element of killing.
The move not only desensitizes them to the horrendous aspect of war, but also maximizes soldiers' lethality by bypassing their moral autonomy.
Analyst Penny Coleman criticizes Pentagon's attempt to peddle magic pills to chase away the horrors of war, saying: "The neurological and genetic re-engineering of soldiers' minds and bodies is aimed at creating what the Pentagon calls 'iron bodied and iron willed personnel… tireless, relentless, remorseless, and unstoppable."
Barry Romo a national coordinator for Vietnam Veterans Against the War, also denounces the plan: "That's the devil pill, that's the monster pill, the anti-morality pill. That's the pill that can make men and women do anything and think they can get away with it. Even if it doesn't work, what's scary is that a young soldier could believe it will."
It might be noted that at the time that infamous Rumsfeld/Hussein handshake photo was taken, Donald Rumsfeld was not working for the U.S. government... He was just an envoy. His occupation at the time was pharmchem industry
