US 'uses incendiary arms' against civilians in Iraq Italian state TV, Rai, has broadcast a documentary accusing the US military of using of phosphorus bombs against civilians in the Iraqi city of Falluja. In the film, eyewitnesses and ex-US soldiers who served in Iraq said white phosphorus bombs were used in built-up areas in the insurgent-held city. Rai says this amounts to the illegal use of chemical arms, though such bombs are considered incendiary devices. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4417024.stm | ||||||
