How do you know this? Just curious.
Oh, yes, where is ol' "Baghdad Bob" these days?
Belgian doctor: Israel using chemical weapons (in Lebanon)
So what's the problem?
If that's what you think,why don't you sue them. I have a strange feeling they would appreciate the opportunity a hearing would give them.
Maybe that is why so many scientists dedicated to working with substances that were designed for chemical usage for unknown purposes,have been turning up dead,under unusual circumstances,the past couple of years.
Those are not the first pictures I have seen of Arabs with unspeakably indescribable injuries.
No they don't.
I saw another picture of a little boy on a link to some article here. He was alive but his features were all running into each other like the very worst burn victim I have ever seen. I have worked in a hospital that was a regional burn center. This is serious stuff and we do need to insist that this is brought to the attention of the world. If the enemy has it,we must ensure that it is destroyed.
You're right -- that post sounded trollish and I don't mean to do that.
I don't understand the dismissal of the MSM,it seems to me that the MSM and the public in general agree with the prevailing opinion on Free Republic. That is;about 80% are totally with Israel in this current affair with Palestine and Lebanon. Anybody have information to the contrary?
5.56mm
A Belgian Muslim
or...
next step by terrorists.....
use some of those chemical weapons that Saddam sent over against innocent civilians and frame Israel.....
No worries. I've just had my own troubles with posters suffering from an irony deficiency.
The rounds used in this case should be the 155 mm WP (white phosphorus) which is not forbidden by international treaties if used with a PD (point detonating fuze). However if it is used with a VT (variable time) fuze for a high burst effect, then it is aimed at inflicting direct burns to the people under its umbrella, and that is where the dispute lies on the legal level.
I think the case erupted not so long ago with the US or UK forces in Iraq. I did not follow up its conclusion.
Far from the reach of 155 mm, the pictures you've seen may have resulted from the shock wave of a powerful burst of air bombs, high pressure plus high tempreature, and the debris projected by the burst. A lab examination of the corpses may give a clear indication of any forbidden substance.
Furthermore, my great uncle Cletus, served in WWI in the Argonne forest and was a victim of chemical attacks. I saw him with his shirt off once when I was 6. I almost puked.
Say what?
I agree with post 115. These are not chemical weapons but very high temp high pressure blasts.
Memo to "belgian" "doctor" - liar, liar, pants on fire!
I wasn't trying to be funny. Just pointing out that exposure to extreme heat without being in the fire would do this.
