Why non lethal incapacitating chemical agents are seldom use

Because dosage varies based on the individual, and changes based on its concentration in the medium into which its introduced. Hard to get right, expensive, not worth it.

>See: Moscow theater hostage crisis

Conventions prohibit lethal and non lethal chemical agents in war. It would open up a interesting concept of raining tear gas and riot control agents to fuck up combatants in war.

>get everyone based out on alprazolam (xanax)

what could go wrong?

>>31903017
This.

The difference between lethal and nonlethal is control, and control is something you don't have on the battlefield.

The NVA got lots of American soldiers hooked on heroin and to a lesser extent, cocaine.

a lot of people died in that because when people were bought out of the theatre unconscious, they were placed on their backs and left alone while responders went back in to get more people. that, and the fact that the kremlin never disclosed what agent the weapon was based off of or that it was even used so treatment of people was practically pissing in the dark. obviously people closer to the vents copped a much larger dose, but yeah, the massive mortality rate was poor discussion between the kremlin and responders

It would fucking kill a lot of people. That's how the Russians managed to kill a fuckton of people on that Dubrovka theater hostage crisis all those years ago.

>would make daesh unable to fight
Then they couldn't overthrow Assad and transform Syria into a beacon of Freedom and Democracy.

That was an opiod

Because real life isn't video games and altering body chemistry has serious consequences

This stuff is pretty cool, denatonium benzoate, AKA "Bittrex", the mostbitter flavor in existence.

a tenth of a pound per ton of rice renders it all inedible, one molecule ruins one million molecules of water.

>>31903321
a sedative nevertheless

>not killing gooks on patrol with a cocaine fueled bloodlust

The heroin thing I'll give you.

There are sedatives that don't cause respiratory arrest on OD.
But it's a stupid idea nevertheless.

there is dishinibiting effect... not good or maybe good since they would take more unnecessary risks on the battlefield.
What we need is an empathogen. promotes bonds, decrease anxiety... they would stop battle and recognize it's futility. basically MDMA.
Or an entheogen DMT + MAOI in water. life changer / game changer.

>>31903361
so nobody drinks, nobody eats, or everyone pukes 3 days and they're all dead from thirst
I am looking for a solution that does not harm civilians.

>>31903321
fentanyl or even maybe the dreaded carfentanyl, 10000x more potent that morphine dosage wise.
carfentanyl is used in darts to tranqulize elefants.
Bad idea.
