here is a very important report about the place where that white phosphorous that has murdered, wounded, and destroyed so many and so much in gaza were made. they were made in the united states. like the cluster bombs used on lebanese people in south lebanon, which continue to injure and kill lebanese people, these weapons were produced in the united states.

Al Jazeera has tracked down the origin of the white phosphorus used by Israel in the war on Gaza. It comes from an army arsenal in a small US town called Pine Bluff, Arkansas, home to 50,000 people. Mike Kirsch travelled to Pine Bluff to discover what its residents and leaders thought of their town’s role in the war on Gaza.



all that stuff in the human rights watch report posted on my blog entry last night needs to be extended to apply to america’s complicit role as well.
