Why has Israel finally admitted now that they are using white phosphorus?

well they admitted it because now human rights are investigating in something even much worse.

as Doctors report Israel using DIME (Dense Inert Metal Explosive) weapons in Gaza.
although this is not something new, because the Zionists used this weapon on Gaza when they attacked it back in 2006(ofcourse many think that this is the first attack on Gaza), and they used t in Lebanon.

I guess they are insisting on copying Hitler, maybe they do love him after all.

this is the articel dated December 5, 2006 :
US and Israel Targeting DNA in Gaza? The DIME Bomb: Yet Another Genotoxic Weapon, Part I
By James Brooks
http://www.aljazeerah.info/Opinion%20editorials/2006%20Opinion%20Editorials/December/5%20o/US%20and%20Israel%20Targeting%20DNA%20in%20Gaza%20The%20DIME%20Bomb%20Yet%20Another%20Genotoxic%20Weapon,%20Part%20I%20By%20James%20Brooks.htm

DIME bombs produce an unusually powerful blast within a relatively small area, spraying a superheated “micro-shrapnel” of powdered Heavy Metal Tungsten Alloy (HMTA). Scientific studies have found that HMTA is chemically toxic, damages the immune system, rapidly causes cancer, and attacks DNA (genotoxic).

The first reports about ‘Israel’s new weapon’ came from Dr Joma Al-Saqqa, chief of the emergency unit at Gaza’s largest hospital, Al-Shifa. Dr. Al-Saqqa said that Israel was using “a new ‘chemical’ weapon” and its siege was “a live exercise on a new ammunition that, so far, has resulted in killing 50 Palestinians and injuring 200.” He observed that, “despite the damage in internal soft tissue in the bodies of injured people, the fragments were not detected by X-ray. In other words, they had disappeared or dissolved inside the body.”

“There were usually entry and exit wounds,” Dr. Al-Saqqa reported. “When the wounds were explored no foreign material was found. There was tissue death, the extent of which was difficult to determine…. A higher deep infection rate resulted with subsequent amputation. In spite of amputation there was a higher mortality.” The effects of the weapon seemed “radioactive”.

According to Palestine News Network, Dr. Al-Saqqa “confirmed that there were dozens of wounded legs and arms. Many of them had been burned from the inside, and distorted to the point that they cannot return to life again.”

“When the shrapnel hit[s] the body, it causes very strong burns that destroy the tissues around the bones…it burns and destroys internal organs, like the liver, kidneys, and the spleen and other organs and makes saving the wounded almost impossible. As a surgeon, I have seen thousands of wounds during the Intifada, but nothing was like this weapon.”

Ya, of course prettywo, we all know the truth from fiction, everybody in this world knows what happening now in Gaza by T.V. & net .

Yes, Israel uses white phosphorus in bombard , we all saw that, this weapon is forbidden in bombard, because it burns in air & if its gas touched the body it will cause burns of second & third class.

Israel uses another weopon it's new one, this weapon tears arteries & veins by tiny shrapnel , not seen by eyes or even X-ray , & this weapon is forbidden to use against soldiers , then what about using it against civilians.

Well, you can´t deny the facts, which have been broadcasted all around the world, right?
I mean it is easy to lie and say that XY country has hidden chemical weapons although half of the world is saying that it is a lie… it is one word against the other…
But you can´t deny anything that obvious because everybody has seen the results on BBC and CCN...
I always thought that the use of chemical weapons belong to the past and are officially banned all over the world, right?
Anyway, bombs or no bombs, the killing and suffering of innocent people are absolutely not acceptable. No matter which reasons may exist, but as soon as an innocent dies there is no justification possible.
And I mean that there is no justice possible for suicide killers, bombs and rockets which kill innocent Israelis and there is no justification for killing any innocent Palestine or make anybody homeless and starving from hunger.
I guess that we are all humans and I ask myself how can we even try to find a justification if we see all this unnecessary suffering?
I would say that in the 21st century people should be much more intelligent than in the Middle Age and capable to find a solution on a diplomatic basis.
And in the case to fight terrorism I would say that the Israeli secret service should not just be a myth in history, they should be clever enough to spot the terrorist leaders and eliminate them without killing innocents.
Anyway, I ask myself when will this craziness stop?
Because in the end there will be nobody who wins, there will be only losers.

You do realise that the story you are linking it to is from 2006 don't you? In Lebanon, not Gaza.

Not that I don't believe they are using it now as well....but at least get a relevant link.

guttermoon

The Zionists (note: I try never to refer to them as Israelis) have lied and prevaricated for over one hundred years ever since they set their sights on Palestine and desired it for a homeland.

They have disregard humane decency and international laws to achieve their ends wh should we start believing them now.

Israel had previously said the weapons were used only to mark targets.

George Galloway about Media Distortions about Gaza
WORLDPRESSNETWORK - 9 January 2009

You may have seen in the Times or heard on Radio 4's Today programme David
Aaronovitch presenting a distorted view of what I have said in relation to the
massacres and siege of Gaza, and the echoes of the Warsaw Ghetto.

My actual views can be heard here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX1nbSKpuy0

where you can see a recording of my speech last night at a packed rally in London.

Supporters of Israel on discussion forums and blogs have been doing their level best
to divert discussion into cul de sacs and to introduce little untruths to confuse.

Phosphor and cluster bombs are only the tip of the iceberg in terms of the cruelty this sly nation of evil wrongdoers has shown itself capable. Born out of terrorism (Irgun). surviving on USA welfare checks through promoting terrorism and greed. Israel will only admit to their heinous acts when their "Comical Cohen" spokespeople are caught out in their blatant lies.

Hereward the Wake

the BBC have been showing israel using white phosphorus its kinda hard too deny it. i thought it was banned, and didn't USA start a false war with Iraq because they feared they were using similar weapons? this whole phony war/genocide of Palestinians stinks of US corruption, but its ok because USA say hamas are the bad guys, the bad guys that israel funded for over 20 years, the bad guys who fire rockets in retaliation too border incursions by israel, neither side is right but isreal is very wrong and hopefully when this is all over the UN will deal with the war crimes the israelis have committed

Gareeb

Why? Since 2006 war in the lebanon the evidance is too much. IF Israel was not caught by internatinal evidance, they would never admit it.

DA MAN (palestine shall live)

israel also admitted that the U.N school they bombed did not have any militants in it

it is surprising to me how the israelis claim they are defending themselves while it is really the palestinians who are. sure everyone has the right to defend themselves from violence

the Palestinians are trapped in a million man cage, deprived of basic necessities of life and foodstuff, and by sending rockets into israel, they are merely resisting the long occupation of Israel

thus it is unreasonable to say that the rockets are an act of terror, they are nothing but resistance, yet the world refuses to adress the fact that killing 900 civilians in the name of so called "defense" is AN ACT OF TERROR

It takes a great MAN to admit when they are wrong. Also they attack military targets, your details say.

I have yet to see Hamas attack military targets, admit to anything or claim responsibility for the death of a 5 and 12 year old girl, both sisters:

Gazzaa In Africa

I apologize for this question. Understand not all Muslims are hateful and ignorant. Please.

It is not like us to lie and cheat people.. only a few rotten ones in the whole bunch of apples.

Bo P

when is the last time any military told its secrets? are you nuts?

Steel Rain

They are marking targets, with great balls of fire.

prettywoman

You spitting out evil propaganda again get your facts right. We the majority know that the truth from fiction.

Grundelow

Is this all you can do?

Take some old recycled story and try to revive it with some lies to scare everyone? Give us a break.

Your Taliban.com links aren't fooling anyone lol

They never denied it. It is a legal weapon.
Worked great for me.
