      It burns hotter than the sun, it permanently blinds people and horrifically maims people that don't get literally melted to death. It's one of the most horrific weapons we have ever devised as a species.

      not linking the wiki article because it contains graphic images of child victims

      "In munitions, white phosphorus burns readily with flames of 800 °C (1,472 °F).[82][83] Incandescent particles from weapons using powdered white phosphorus as their payload produce extensive partial- and full-thickness burns, as will any attempt to handle burning submunitions without protective equipment. Phosphorus burns carry an increased risk of mortality due to the absorption of phosphorus into the body through the burned area with prolonged contact, which can result in liver, heart and kidney damage, and in some cases multiple organ failure.[84] White phosphorus particles continue to burn until completely consumed or starved of oxygen. In the case of weapons using felt-impregnated submunitions, incomplete combustion may occur resulting in up to 15% of the WP content remaining unburned. Such submunitions can prove hazardous as they are capable of spontaneous re-ignition if crushed by personnel or vehicles.[85] In some cases, injury is limited to areas of exposed skin because the smaller WP particles do not burn completely through personal clothing before being consumed."

    We need to talk more about boycotting Israel, and how to do it.

    There is a reason they're making it illegal to boycott Israel. This isn't a war of [who has the most advanced weaponry] - it's an economic war. Nobody in the middle east wants to help Palestine because they're all thinking about their pockets. There is a lot you can personally do to stop this madness, as long as you are willing to accept relatively minor discomforts and inconveniences.

    If this is hell, which surely it must be, where do Israelis go when they die?
