Soldiers were warned, they didn't comply, so we followed through on our promise. Better than dropping MOAB's on all Iraqi cities isn't it?

You're mixing quotes from two different incidents. In the first, bombs were dropped on dozens of bridges to clear them for marine approaches. No mention of surrender is made there. In a separate incident, napalm was used on an observation post, and that is where surrender is mentioned. In both cases, the US armed forces denied using napalm until recently, going so far as to issue an official denial.
Napalm not a WMD? I wonder what the USA reaction would be if Iraq napalmed a bunch of US soldiers, or if hundreds of gallons of napalm was found in a warehouse in Iraq.
