BREAKING: Israel is now dropping internationally-prohibited white phosphorus bombs on South Lebanon. White phosphorus burns and incinerates upon contact. Another blatant war crime committed with U.S. backing.

White phosphorus is banned for use as an incendiary weapon against civilian populations and in air attacks against military forces in civilian areas under Protocol III of the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW).

That's not Gaza.

The Messenger of Allah said "Beware of the supplication of the oppressed, for there is no the barrier between it and Allah." [Sahih al-Bukhãrī 4090]

That’s basically an empty field, who are they dropping the bombs on? 🤔

There are several topics at play… please state evidence not a statement from Hamas spokesperson … it has yet to be confirmed specifically as white phosphorus… While white phosphorus itself is not classified as a chemical weapon under the Chemical Weapons Convention, its incendiary nature has led to attempts to regulate its use more effectively. This is outlined in Protocol III to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW). This protocol, signed in Geneva in 1980 and enforced since 1983, places restrictions on the use of incendiary weapons, including those containing white phosphorus. 115 countries signed the treaty, not including Israel and many others. Furthermore, the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, which has been in effect since 2002, provides a contemporary definition of war crimes. It prohibits actions such as the “destruction of property not justified by military necessity” and “intentionally directing attacks against the civilian population or civilian objects.” Thus, violations of CCW Protocol III may constitute war crimes if proven. Clearly, Hamas has committed war crimes, on video. Addressing the use of white phosphorus in armed conflicts presents a complex challenge. While international regulations like CCW Protocol III aim to curb its use, there are gaps and limitations that critics argue need to be addressed. The ethical and legal dilemmas surrounding white phosphorus use underscore the need for ongoing discussions and international cooperation to better protect civilian populations and minimize suffering during conflicts. Technically, as of today, it is not a war crime and sadly has been used by Russia against Syria and Ukraine according to certain reports.

Instead of spreading propaganda, I’ll be praying for both sides pray for the men, women and children enough with the nonsense and propaganda. Israel did not start this war if you promote Hamas beheading babies then you are the axis of evil.

白リン弾は国際条約で禁止されていません。発煙弾として設計されたM825A1白リン弾は特定通常兵器使用禁止制限条約第三議定書の禁止対象ではないからです。
