Hamas suspects that Israeli intelligence services are supplying its Gaza Strip stronghold with chewing gum that boosts the sex drive in order to "corrupt the young," an official has said.

"We have discovered two types of stimulants that were introduced into the Gaza Strip from Israeli border crossings," Hamas police spokesman Islam Shahwan said.

"The first type is presented in the form of chewing gum and the second in the form of drops," he said.

The Islamist movement that has run the densely populated and impoverished Palestinian territory for the past two years said it has detained members of a gang that helped to bring in the products.

"They admitted during the investigation they were linked to the Zionist intelligence services," he said.

One suspect said he had received the products from an Israeli intelligence officer at a cut-rate price "with the officer saying they did not want money, but to distribute the products among the young people of Gaza," Mr Shahwan said.

"The intelligence services are aiming to corrupt the young generation by distributing these products among students."

The story came to light after a Palestinian man filed a complaint that his daughter had experienced "dubious side effects" after chewing the offending gum, Israeli media reported.

The Israeli military declined to comment officially on the allegations, which one military source termed "absurd."

Some people have WAAYYYY too much time on their hands, if this is what they're worried about! :evil:

The only other place I've ever heard about aphrodisiac gum was in the novel "Brave New World."

If there was such a thing as Viagra in a gum form, wouldn't it be better known about? How would you go about manufacturing such a thing?
 
I've definitely heard this one before somewhere, long ago, probably from the same part of the world.
Googling to see if I could find out where and when brought up oodles of products, all of which sound pretty hokey, inevitably, as there really aren't any aphrodisiacs in this sense, i.e. drugs that will make well-behaved decent folks suddenly uncontrollably horny leading to the breakdown of religious hegemony.

Viagra isn't an aphrodisiac, it's a specific type of muscle relaxant.
 
Horny Chewy

Did any of the Palestinian women object though?.

The Israelis can dump some my way any time they like, I refuse nothing but blows and harsh words.

According to this 2005 news report the US military considered developing an "aphrodisiac bomb" but never actually went ahead with it.

Yup, they decided to "Make war, not love"...
