NATO Developing Environment Friendly Weapons

EGSonikku writes: "Although it may seem a bit odd, according to this msnbc.com story NATO and its member countries are developing so called 'green weapons' that produce similar effects to standard weaponry, without using chemicals that could be hazardous to the environment and the soldiers using them. Good to know that we can bomb each other without hurting the butterflies now, eh?" Heh -- it's the environmental bit shift of the neutron bomb -- "Kill the people, preserve the industry" becomes "Kill the people, preserve the land."

    A leaflet flutters to the ground.


    You read the leaflet.


    You have been blown up by an environmentally friendly weapon

    Under International law you have 1 hour to kill yourself.

    Please have your body disposed of in a tidy manner.
