“Fallujah: The Hidden Massacre” on US use of napalm-like white phosphorus bombs

Dahr Jamail, speaking on Democracy Now!

"I have interviewed many refugees over the last week coming out of Fallujah at different times from different locations within the city. The consistent stories that I have been getting have been refugees describing phosphorus weapons, horribly burned bodies, fires that burn on people when they touch these weapons, and they are unable to extinguish the fires even after dumping large amounts of water on the people. Many people are reporting cluster bombs, as well. And these are coming from the camps that I have been to, different people who have emerged from Fallujah anywhere from one week ago up to on through up toward near the very beginning of the siege."

Sounds like torture to me…

    Torture? Sounds more like genocide and abuse of power to me.

    You’re right. It couldn’t be torture because Dubya said they didn’t do that.

    Review here. Be forewarned that there is a LOT of VERY gruesome footage. This is no Hollywood horror movie, this is the real stuff. George Bush and Dick Cheney and Condoleezza Rice and Donald Rumsfeld and the rest of them should be shacked in chairs and forced to watch this, over and over.

    That’s an excellent review!

    I’m still trying to download it! The servers must be melting down. Can’t even get a good connection to it via BitTorrent…

    This video must be brought to the widest possible audience and if it doesn’t bring them on to the streets we have lost it and might as well go home and play ludo.
