There is not one line in the article that indicates that Israel is using this as a weapon. White Phosphorus is used for smokescreens and markings areas.
There is multiple lines in the article stating exactly that. Where do get that from?!
HRW doesn't claim it was used directly as a weapon. IDF denies using it at all.
Using it as a smokescreen or marking areas is NOT using it as a weapon
Username checks out.
Yeah I made it so you could jerk yourself off about it and feel good at least once in your sad life 😃

Maybe wait until the genocide is over before defending it? You’ll need the strength.
It's a bombing campaign. They aren't using smokescreens.
A "smoke screen" that can kill people that are in contact..... sureeeeee
It doesn't say they're using it as a weapon but it seems to imply they've stopped using it for at least one of the non-weapon purposes and make no assurance it won't be used as a weapon.
