zionists are using chemical weopons, "White Phosphorus is considered a chemical weapon by most governments around the world. Its use in civilian areas is banned by the Geneva Treaty of 1980... The united Nations considers such weapons illegal." Video: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UVY4NUKowzg They are also using dime weapons which causes CANCER and leukaemia.
Those aren't chemical weapons. It was done by artillery before the ground invasion to trigger as many planted bombs as possible, they're called creeper bombs which cause a lot more noise than the amount of damage they do.
Israel has a history of using weapons that are forbidden by the UN; Remember the cluster bombs that they used against lebanon?
The Chemical Weapons Convention does not designate White phosphorus as a chemical weapon, various unofficial groups consider it to be one. In recent years, the United States, Israel, Russia, and Argentina have used white phosphorus in combat.
It's specifically permitted by the Geneva convention when used (as here) as a smokescreen rather than as a chemical weapon. Whatever your opinion of the Israelis, they're certainly not stupid enough blatantly to flout the Geneva convention under circumstances like this and destroy completely their already very limited and dramatically waning international support. But hey, don't let a little logic get in the way of an anti-semitic rant.
More to the point, does anyone have a link to unbiased (?) experts to make a determination on whether this is, indeed, white phosphorus? I haven't come up with anything solid either way.
this is indeed white phosphorus, why people seem surprised as if its the first time Israel uses WP, and other weapons including depleted uranium and cluster bombs against civilians? Israel admits using phosphorus bombs during war in Lebanon Official: Israel used phosphorous bombs yes I know smart a$$e$ this is Lebanon 2006 war, but they admitted 2 and a half months after the end of that war when they no longer could deny it after tests by neutral parties for Lebanese soils and victims that proved their usage. and this was not the first time, also in Lebanon 1982, they use them, then lie, and only admit when they can no longer deny it:
Not when Hamas is firing rockets from that location. If you want to blame someone for putting those people at risk, thy name is Hamas.
The USA is the main provider of these chemical weapons, as it provided Saddam in 8 years war of Iraq and Iran. Everybody knows that Iraq were using chemical weapons in the war of Iran and now Israel is using the same with Palestine.
Rofl White phosphorous is like a ciggarette burn compared to the gasses Saddam used. Don't misunderstand, I want nowhere near either, but phospourus is found in old camera flashes and the like, while VX gas and mustard gas is only found in underground bunkers. And while I am aware of my governments habit of selling evil shit to psychos, I would suspect the former USSR has a good deal of gas missing these days.
