The Pentagon recognized that troops of USA used phosphoric bombs during the last year's operation in Falludzh.
"Bombs with the white phosphorus were used as the igniting weapon against the armed forces of enemy", - stated the representative of the Pentagon Lieutenant Colonel Barry Venabl in the interview to BBC.
According to him, this weapon was not used against the innocent civilians. Previously USA generally denied the fact of the use of bombs with the white phosphorus in Falludzh. This statement made the State Department of USA.
On the assertion of the representative of the Pentagon, the white phosphorus - substance, which forms part of bombs, which can lead to the burns of the skin - is not the forbidden chemical weaponry.
American servicemen made this conclusion on the basis of the fact that in 1980 Washington did not sign the protocol of agreement, which limits the use of the phosphorous-containing weapon. However, the application of phosphoric bombs disrupts the convention of UNITED NATIONS some types of the so-called conventional weapon.
For the first time about the use of bombs with the white phosphorus in Falludzh described the journalists of the Italian television channel Rai. After televising of documentary film Italian peace campaigners arranged protest demonstration near the American embassy in Rome.
White phosphorus - poison, which with contact with body literally burns the skin and flesh to the bones.
Television channel RAI showed the film, which tells about the consequences of the operation of assault ale -Falludzh during November 2004. At night sky above the city was colored hundreds of phosphoric projectiles. There participated 12 thousand American occupiers and three thousand Iraqi collaborationists in the assault of Falludzh. Immediately after the attack about which reported none of the western journalists, send rumors about the fact that the Americans used chemical weaponry against the city.
Film "Falludzha. Secret slaughter house "gives the irrefutable evidence of the fact that the incendiary bombs, known as Mark 77, the improved form of the napalm, which was being adapted by troops of USA in Vietnam, adapted into the El -Falludzh.
USA denied these facts for the long time. During December American government officially named these communications the "extended myth". But after the appearance of terrible documentary personnel for the Pentagon it was necessary to confess in the lie. In this case Washington again attempted to assert that the chemical weaponry did not adapt against the innocent civilians.
However, interview and the photos, made by Italian journalists, bring this assertion into question. The former American soldier, who warred into the Al -Falludzh, stated to the correspondent:
"I heard order to maintain caution, since is going to use white phosphorus against Al -Falludzh. Phosphorus burns body, it dissolves flesh to the bone. I saw the burned bodies of women and children. Phosphorus explodes and forms cloud. To everything in radius of 150 meter – will be end ".
Photographs on the site of television channel www.rainews24.it show that, about which the former soldier speaks. On tens of qualitative colored photographs, made from the close distance and given by the research center of the rights of man into the Al -Falludzh, the bodies of the inhabitants of city are visible, whose clothing remained untouched, but the skin was dissolved or took the form of the skin of animal as a result of firing by projectiles.
Biologist from Al -Falludzh Mohamed Tarek, who gave interview for the film, says:
"Fiery rain was spilled to the city, people, struck by this many-colored substance, began to burn. We found those killed people with the uncommon injuries: bodies were charred, and clothing remained untouched ".
After looking the photographs of the pitilessly burnt Iraqi children by Americans was recalled the condemning physiognomy of Bush, who told with the disturbance about the "terrorists" in Beslan, placed by their actions the life of children under the threat.
