Two weeks ago the UK Independent ran an article which confirmed that the US had "lied to Britain over the use of napalm in Iraq". (6-17-05) Since then, not one American newspaper or TV station has picked up the story even though the Pentagon has verified the claims.

When and where did the Pentagon "confirm" this?
Quote:

"Despite persistent rumors of injuries among Iraqis consistent with the use of incendiary weapons such as napalm" the Pentagon insisted that "US forces had not used a new generation of incendiary weapons, codenamed MK77, in Iraq." (UK Independent)

Lots of things that are not incendiary weapons make things burn. Remember the four Blackwater employees who got killed and hung from the bridge? Remember how charred their bodies were? Did the insurgents use napalm on them? Of course not. When things go boom, combustibles will burn.

Defense Minister, Adam Ingram, admitted that the US had misled the British high-command about the use of napalm, but he would not comment on the extent of the cover up. The use of firebombs puts the US in breach of the 1980 Convention on Certain Chemical Weapons (CCW) and is a violation the Geneva Protocol against the use of white phosphorous, "since its use causes indiscriminate and extreme injuries especially when deployed in an urban area."

Napalm does not contain White Phosphorous. As the 7-up commercial went: "Never had it, never will. AHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!"

The US also used napalm in the siege of Falluja as was reported in the UK Mirror ("Falluja Napalmed", 11-28-04) The Mirror said, "President George Bush has sanctioned the use of napalm, a deadly cocktail of polystyrene and jet-fuel banned by the United Nations in 1980, will stun the world.... Reports claim that innocent civilians have died in napalm attacks, which turn victims into human fireballs as the gel bonds flames to flesh...Since the American assault on Falluja there have been reports of 'melted' corpse, which appeared to have napalm injuries."

The same exact type of wounds tend to be generated when anybody is in a vehicle that is hit and they do not make it out of it. Why? Because gasoline, which powers many vehicles, burns. Odd how that works, isn't it?

Dr Shaykhli's claims have been corroborated by numerous eyewitness accounts as well as reports that "all forms of nature were wiped out in Falluja"...as well as "hundreds, of stray dogs, cats, and birds that had perished as a result of those gasses." An unidentified chemical was used in the bombing raids that killed every living creature in certain areas of the city.

we used nerve gas? Why are they not saying we nuked them?Oh, yeah, that whole thing about the spy satellites of other countries proving we didn't...

The US simply waves away the international body as a minor nuisance while the media scrupulously omits any mention of the allegations from their coverage.

Nope, the US media just doesn't give press time to obvious falsehoods and enemy propaganda.
