This is presently on the BBC website homepage. It's a QI thing that changes every day. This is today's:

"US State papers dating from 1994 released under the Freedom of Information Act reveal that, during the Gulf War, the Pentagon toyed with the idea of developing an aphrodisiac bomb that would cause enemy troops to find each other sexually irresistible. An alternative was to make enemy troops sexually attractive to stinging and biting insects and rodents. They also spent 50 years looking into a Who?Me? stink bomb that would produce smells leading enemy troops to think one of them had farted or suddenly developed bad breath"

"the Pentagon toyed with the idea of developing an aphrodisiac bomb that would cause enemy troops to find each other sexually irresistible."

This is available in a 50cc perfume spray in both his and her formats. I get mine in Poundland. Works every time!!!

"They also spent 50 years looking into a Who?Me? stink bomb that would produce smells leading enemy troops to think one of them had farted or suddenly developed bad breath"

This is a very cunning plan to undermine enemy morale. I imagine in the middle of an exchange of heavy gunfire, troops would be severely distracted by a colleague's bad breath.

What dastardly genius!

I think the Pentagon has far too many boffins with too much time on their hands. A 155mm shell will normally do the trick, and will seriously undermine the morale of anyone on the end of it.
