Israel utilizing white phosphorus

According to the Genva convention incendiary weapons are not permitted in civilian areas yet Israel is using white phosphorus, a notorious incendiary weapon on Gaza in their defense they admit using it, but they say its purely used as a smoke screen or a fog of war if you will, and not for killing therefore it is a legitamte use WP is very good as a smoke screen, do you think it is needed i dont no how many people were killed by WP so far in gaza but im betting its a heap

White phosphorous is a weapon I would not wish even on my worst enemies...
But seriously, it's VERY useful, and it is NOT prohibited.

All is (supposedly) fair in love and war.
In situations where entire cities are demolished to the point where families are destroyed and people's lives are ruined beyond comprehension, does it really matter how that happens?
It's like saying death by Rambo knife is a little too extreme, but using a much classier and "moral" version of the Spanish sword is completely acceptable.
Many of the powerful developed nations abide by their own standards, and only give public credence to existing agreements (UN or otherwise) in order to save face. Atrocities take place on every possible level, and yet people think legislating how violence is committed is an intelligent solution or preventative?

There is nothing about war, that could be considered humane. However, don't assume that being "anti-war" is more humane! (i.e., Sudan, Somalia; should someone go to war and fix these countries problems, or is the anti-war stance more humane?)

The restraint on the force used is really just a matter of what the enemy's retaliation will be. Throughout WW2, both the Germans and the allies were ready to deploy chemical weapons, but as a retaliatory measure, in case the enemy dared to use them. Since neither side opened up that can of worms, WW2 never saw the gas attacks notable in WW1. Same with the cold war. The only restraint on the use of atomic munitions was the threat of retaliation.
So, to answer to the question, does it really matter how bad the weapons used are? Absolutely. Sow your seeds, reap the whirlwind.
Of course, this is just the practical aspect of restraint on force. The moral implications are far more complex.

Hamas kills civilians, known horrifically. Both sides are equally at fault in my mind. However, my 'convenient definition' is correct. Phosphorus smoke flares are not considered incendiary weapons by the Geneavoa Conventions, thus their use is not a violation as implied by Coaster.

Because you have to take a side and Hamas represents the side that I think is in the right. They do commit atrocities as well, but if Palestine had the military options Israel does it may not have come to that.

No, Hamas is a criminal gang of thugs that are pretending to play "country" while indiscriminately attacking civilians... unfortunately for the Palestinian people...
> And the Palestinians, well they're brown so they've gotta be murderers.
I think this is the mistake you are making... Hamas is not Palestine and Palestine is not Hamas. Hamas is a small group of armed men that attack and kill civilians while using Palestinians for shields, and pretending to stand up for the rights of the Palestinian People. It is Hamas that is doing this, not the Palestinian people. These are two different things. One can dislike Hamas, and still like Palestinians... the concept is not mutually exclusive.
If Israel were attacking 'the brown skins' ( not everybody is racist) then the west bank would be hurting right now as well.

It's not as if the Palestinians asked for Israel's prescience and constant aggressions against their territory. I don't think either side is inherently "right" but I'm not blind to the aggressions of both sides either.
Anyway on a broader note I think this is a relevant political issue because right now Iraq is developing nuclear weapons capable of attacking Israel (or is at least posturing as such). Since Israel also has nukes this is a dangerous standoff for the whole world.

Yea I meant Iran sorry for the error.
You may say it levels the playing field but I'm afraid whenever a new religious fanatic gets a new nuclear toy. They may not show the same restraint of US/USSR or Axes/Allies.

no but other methods may be more profitable for the US.
I may add that when a considerable amount of nuclear material is detonated it will get into the atmosphere and spread around the world. This is why all testing is done underground nowadays.

it's questionable, Brittan claims to have banned the use of white phosphorus in '97 and say they use other agents to produce smoke the article says the brits were using it in 2003 in 'other wars'
what ever happened to those good old smoke grenades for producing smoke

Result of an Israeli rocket barrage. They're doing those now. You may have heard about it.
Palestinian territory is probably the worst place to be injured. Instead of being rushed to a hospital to receive medical care, you can expect to be paraded before cameras, with your clothes pulled open to expose your wounds for publicity, risking shock and further infection. You are worth more to Hamas as a causality on camera, rather than alive and healthy.

This is the only direct link I've been able to find. All other links are linking to this. Not sure how credible this is, but knowing you, not at all.
