Another thing that causes worries is the genetic engineering. And its military use. The genetically engineered super soldiers might be under development in China and maybe some other countries. The idea of the super soldiers is actually from ancient Sparta. The idea was that the most capable men made children with the most capable women. Those women were sisters of the other capable people. The idea is that a military leader who has Einstein's brain and a dog's obedience would be a very good tool for military forces.
Those soldiers can be created using genome therapy. Or they can be artificially cloned people.
The idea was that the Spartans selected the soldiers whose skills and courage were battle-proven. The Spartans chose the sisters or cousins of those soldiers for mothers for children that the battle-proven soldiers gave to that city, whose militarism was well-known. Another very scary and brutal idea was given by the SS leader Heinrich Himmler.
The idea of the werewolves or human dogs means soldiers who make everything that their leaders say. They don't excuse orders and that's why dictators like Stalin and Hitler have been interested in that kind of thing.
The idea was that the sperm and eggs of the toughest soldiers and the last-standing concentration camp prisoners were frozen in liquid nitrogen. And then after a couple of generations, the developers use those gametes for artificial fertilization and make the toughest soldiers. The idea was that the soldiers should be like wolves. They should follow their leaders anytime and anywhere there they want.
That they can imagine. Another brutal idea was given by Joseph Stalin. The idea is known as "Monkey soldiers". The idea was that the Soviet scientists make a hybrid creature by connecting monkeys and humans. The idea was to create soldiers. That makes only things that Stalin and his staff ordered.
A person named Ilya Ivanovich Ivanov (1870-1931) made experiments. There he tried to transfer a dog's head to a monkey's body. The idea of the humanzee is from the pen of Ivanov. The humanzee or monkey soldier would be the soldier that follows orders like a dog.
The idea is similar to horse breeding. Researchers choose the people who have similar abilities that they want.
And then they just use laboratory fertilization for those gametes. Researchers can use things like tables to select the right gametes for the process.
But when we think about things. Like modern biotechnology people like Himmler and Stalin had no access to genomes.
Modern researchers have access to genetic material that they can connect as they want and that makes it possible to connect the genome that makes wolves follow their leaders to the human genetic material. This is one thing to make sure that the army follows the orders.
When we think about Humzees the human-ape hybrid. We might say that those things are against the human nature. We can say that those things are nonethical science. And then we can prohibit them in law. But then we must realize that people like North Korean leaders don't care about even their own laws. And also the military interest goes above regular rules in China and many other non-democratic countries.
