Israel has launched attacks in Lebanon with a U.S.-supplied weapon that burns at 1,500 degrees, injuring nine people:

Amnesty International said the attack should be investigated as a war crime.

After supplying the weapons to Israel, U.S. officials pretended they are concerned that Israel used them. This is bizarre beyond belief. Does anyone believe these outrageous lies?

Earlier, Israel also used the chemical in Gaza in 2009 and multiple times since then, including Oct. 11.

From a medical perspective white phosphorus is a nightmare.

It ignites upon contact with the air, which means it burns through skin, muscle and bone.

You can cover it up with wet bandages but it can reignite, sometimes hours later https://t.co/iDbeCg8UZg
