Battlefield Medkits Improve

Posted by michael on from the sulfa-powder dept.

ApharmdB writes "CNN has an article on the US military's fielding of a bandage containing clotting agents that can stop blood flow within two minutes. Obviously, the hope is that they will save a lot of lives. What's next straight from your favorite FPS? Who has an estimate on how long it will take for the Army to outfit its troops with anti-personnel rocket launchers?" Those have been around for quite a while.

  2. Now we can circumcise those in Iraq and Afghanista by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Circumcision is not routine in poor coutries because of a inadequate health infastructure. Now with these bandages we can round up all the males and show them our way off life of a clean circumcised penis.

    Afgahanistan and Iraq should be used as a model for the rest of the world before we introduce this procedure en mass to the Europeans who obviously desire to be cirucmcised. Maybe they will get fellatio from their girlfriends for the first time in their lives!

    Good professionals are professionals who are circumcised. I think you have to take into concideration that most of these countries don't have adequate medical care for their citizens. Iraq and Afaghanistan will prosper after mass male circumcision is introduced!

    Europe will be revitalized after every male is circumcised, because at this moment most aren't including Linus and Alan Cox. The population will grow once every man is cut becuase the girls will allow men to have intercourse with them. Why do you think Europes popluation is declining? Women hate uncut penises.

    Circumcision should be recommended in every country, look how simple it is in this video.
