U.S. uses napalm gas in Fallujah – Witnesses

11/28/2004 9:00:00 PM GMT

 

A 16 month-old Fallujah child cries while lying in a

Baghdad hospital.

 

 

The U.S. military is secretly using banned napalm gas and

other outlawed

weapons against civilians in the Iraqi city of Fallujah,

eyewitnesses

reported.

 

Residents in Fallujah reported that innocent civilians have

been killed

by napalm attacks, a poisonous cocktail of polystyrene and

jet fuel

which makes the human body melt.

 

Since the U.S. offensive started in Fallujah earlier this

month,

there have been reports of “melted” bodies which proves

that the napalm gas had been used.

 

" Poisonous gases have been used in Fallujah, " 35-year-old

Fallujah

resident, Abu Hammad said. " They used everything -- tanks,

artillery,

infantry, and poisonous gas. Fallujah has been bombed to

the ground. "

Hammad was living in the Julan district of Fallujah which

witnessed some

of the heaviest attacks.

 

Other residents of that area also said that banned weapons

were used. Abu

Sabah, said; “They used these weird bombs that put up smoke

like a

mushroom cloud… then small pieces fall from the air with

long tails of

smoke behind them. "

 

He said that pieces of these strange bombs explode into

large fires that

burn the skin even when water is thrown on the burns.

 

Phosphorous arms and the napalm gas are known to have such

effects.

" People suffered so much from these, " Abu Sabah said.

 

Fallujah “almost gone”

 

Kassem Mohammed Ahmed, who fled Fallujah last week, said

that he witnessed

many atrocities committed by U.S. troops in the shattered

city. " I watched

them roll over wounded people in the street with tanks, " he

said. " This

happened so many times. "

 

Another Fallujah resident Khalil (40) said that “Fallujah

is suffering too

much, it is almost gone now. " He added that refugees are in

a miserable

situation now, " It's a disaster living here at this camp, "

Khalil said.

" We are living like dogs and the kids do not have enough

clothes. "

 

In many refugee camps around Fallujah and Baghdad, people

are living

without enough food, clothing and shelter. Relief groups

estimate that

there are more than 15,000 refugee families in temporary

shelters outside

Fallujah.

 

Blair under fire over the use of napalm

 

On Saturday, Labor MPs have demanded that British Prime

Minister confront

the Commons over the use of the deadly gas in Fallujah.

 

Halifax Labor MP Alice Mahon said: " I am calling on Mr.

Blair to make an

emergency statement to the Commons to explain why this is

happening.

It begs the question: 'Did we know about this hideous

weapon's use in

Iraq?' "

 

Furious critics have also demanded that Blair threatens the

U.S. to

pullout British forces from Iraq unless the U.S. stops

using the world’s

deadliest weapon.

 

The United Nations banned the use of the napalm gas against

civilians in

1980 after pictures of a naked wounded girl in Vietnam

shocked the world.

 

The United States, which didn't endorse the convention,

is the only nation in the world still using the deadly

weapon.
