The Weaponisation of Horror | Tales From the Bottle

Why kill your enemy when you can terrify him, and then kill him?

“Operation Wandering Soul was a propaganda campaign and psychological warfare effort exercised by U.S. forces during the Vietnam War. It was an attempt to increase desertions and defections from Việt Cá»™ng forces and weaken their morale. It was also to coerce the Việt Cá»™ng forces into leaving and going home, weakening their numbers.”

    6:39 Not going to lie, as a Vietnamese this would be pretty entertaining to listen to at midnight alone in a forest. Us Vietnamese have a lot of word for 'you' and this so called ghost is using the most child friendly one. I haven't heard anyone used that you since grade 1, plus the voice is a little bit… TOO DRAMATIC, it the type of dramatic that would come from those old tv show my grandparent usually listen to at late night

    Matthew 10:28 KJV
    And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

    The extra drag on the Stuka was probably considered acceptable because it actually has real offensive benefit- the Stuka was a dive bomber after all, and extra air resistance would slow his dive, allowing for more accurate drops.

    In Nicaragua and El Salvador, the U.S. spread word that the opposition was full of vampires, and treated some bodies accordingly. They've done similar things in African countries, saying rebel leaders were witches.

    My uncle told me how his unit in Vietnam sometimes if time permitted would bury a killed enemy in a shallow grave with his hand sticking out of the ground with a unit "playing card" near the hand….It actually kind of backfired and set off a vendetta war between his unit and a rival Vietcong unit "hunting" each other at one point,
