@joeymod135 actually in the WW2 the Japanese soldiers were on drugs on like amphetamine to be able to kill. Thats why they conquered so much.

@GunnyStilgar I think that drugs have played a huge part in warfare since the Chinese 2000 Years ago, But Scientifically I think the German chemists started on boot drugs for solders before the 1st World war.

Note that the footage that was used to "desensitize" the presenter was not combat footage, but footage of the torture and murder of a captured African soldier by communist insurgents who were barely more than psychopathic children themselves.
