Napalm & White Phosphorus in Iraq

Filed under: misc, Iraq, US Govt, headline news — ben @ 8:52 am

As brief as possible, the lowdown on the use of Napalm and White Phosphorus in Iraq.

Iraqi news sources reported napalm use during the initial phase of war, the US denied it. Then had to recant their denial after a Col. admitted to its use. Napalm was banned by the Geneva conventions.

Then during the Nov 2004 Falluja attack (which began the day after Bush’s ‘re-election’ as a diversion from the blatant election fraud) islam-online.net reported that the US was gassing Falluja. The US denied it, but then a year later the Italian TV documentary with US troops claiming they were trained to use WP, and they heard it’s nickname, “Whiskey Pete” called for on the radio. The video has disturbing graphic footage of burnt bodies with the clothes intact, as if someone had dressed up the skeltons- but in fact they were fried with white phosphorus, a chemical that does nothing to clothing, but burns flesh to the bone. Is it a chemical weapon?

Of course the US denied that they used white phosphorus, then they said, ok we use it, but only for illumination purposes. Then an April issue of Field Artillery Magazine in which a soldier is quoted talking about “shake and bake” missions, where they alternate WP and explosive mortar rounds. So the army recanted further, a public relations nightmare having to say ok, sorry we lied before, but trust us, now we’re telling the truth, we did do shake and bake, but it wasn’t on civilians, so it’s ok- it’s not a chemical weapon or a war crime.

In one month the Army went from complete denial of its use, to now, White Phosphorus is a legitimate weapon.

Then lo and behold, a declassified military document is uncovered that refers to Saddam using the “chemical weapon” White Phosphorus.

When Saddam used WP it was a chemical weapon, but when we use WP it’s not a chemical weapon because “we’re the good guys”. Maybe some Americans still believe this, but the rest of the world is appalled at the ridiculous hypocrisy. Napalm and White Phosphorus- that’s liberation?
