Israel Chemical weapons photos w audio slideshow
Israel Chemical weapons photos w audio slideshow - From the Guardian news in the UK
Can anyone help ID the company who made this white phosphorus weapon used by Israel?
The shell is designed to spin and spread the Napalm like chemicals over a broad area. Look at the red arrows used to point out the spinning warhead. Also.. It seems to have been fired from the ground nearby 200-400 meters? Look at the curve of the smoke trail.
I've not seen this testimony or photo essay referenced anywhere in US media. The US media have made rare mention of white phosphorus followed by the spoon fed response by Israel that they may have used it but only within the law. Never is the phosphorus attack mentioned in relation to the attack on the UN. They are always mentioned separately.
the attack was 22 January 2009
