Thanks for your great work.

It hasn't denied using it in its present onslaught on the people of Gaza - they say waffle like everything we are using is used in accordance with international law. Their lies have been well and truly busted. Once the media gets into the Gaza concentration camp, it'll get really interesting. There's no doubt the current attack on the people of Gaza was planned at least several months ago.

See the chart <a href="http://www.unog.ch/__80256ee600585943.nsf/(httpPages)/3ce7cfc0aa4a7548c12571c00039cb0c?OpenDocument&ExpandSection=1#_Section1" rel="nofollow">HERE</a> Of course, this doesn't diminish the criminality of what Israel is doing in any real sense. But if I've got this right, it suggests Israel may have planned the use of these foul incendiary weapons for a long time.
