Threat Ball

We've all heard of it: Psychological Warfare. In this modern war on terrorism, a war in which many battles render high-tech weapons obsolete because everyone's got them, we often resort to pychological warfare. This usually consists of such methods as sending threatening messages over the radios, T.V's, etc., or of leaflet drops (leaflets are tiny scraps of paper the size of a dollar bill with threatening pictures and words written on them and they are dropped from airplanes by the thousands to demoralize our enemies when they pick them up).

Well, the Threat Ball is kinda like the leaflet, except instead of paper, it's a bouncy ball with a recording inside that loudly declares, in an annoying high-pitched singsong voice "you're all gonna die, you're all gonna die, you're all gonna die..." in the native language of your enemy.

These could also be thrown inside buildings where insurgents are known to be hiding, and could be programmed with different messages to demoralize the enemy and make surrender that much more likely.

This would make an incredibly effective psychological weapon, and give our troops that much more of an edge.
