U.S.: "My Chemical Weapons Don't Count"

The Pentagon lied to us about white phosphorous not being used as a weapon during the siege of Fallujah.

The BBC has now received confirmation from the Pentagon that, yes, WP was in fact used as a weapon. [No one knows where the fuck the American media has been on this story].

Of course, the latest spin is that we didn't sign the treaties banning the use of WP as a weapon. Hmm ... is that an acceptable defense for Saddam? Would it have been okay if he had simply used white phosphorous on the Kurds instead of the other chemical weapon that was actually used?

Of course, the big question is why we have leaders who continue to destroy America's image around the world? How much lower will these fuckers take us?

  • PP,

    Maybe you missed that the title of my post and the Saddam questions that were meant to ridicule the situational semantics of the Bushies.

    Many countries do recognize that WP is a chemical weapon when targeted at people. Indeed, it certainly would meet any common sense definition of the word.

    It appears that your plainspoken Texan isn't really so plainspoken.
