Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Gaza was a "test field" for new weaponry -- sez expert
2009-06-18
Surely this report has gone viral in the alternate reality-based community...
Weapons Advisor Jean-Francois Fechino on Wednesday noted that Gaza, during the Israeli war, was a test field for weapons for the military industry. Fechino, a military and environmental expert, was part of a fact-finding mission spearheaded by the Arab Commission for Human Rights,
Oh stop right there. Arab Commission for Human Rights? Oh, it is to laugh ...
... which visited Gaza and compiled a detailed report about the crimes committed by Israel, as well as the weapons used, added that there is ample evidence that depleted uranium, Dime and other weapons were used by the Israeli army during the Gaza war.

He further stressed that the new weapons used are not yet included in the international conventions that guide conduct during wars.

Fechino also pointed out that the Israelis used phosphorus bombs as offensive weapons and not as weapons to hide their movements, adding that Dime -- Dense Inert Metal Explosive -- was proved to be extensively used.

Another weapon, the GBU-39, which Israel purchased 1,000 from the United States in October 2008, was also used, he noted, saying each GBU-39 bomb weighs 113 kilograms and has the penetration capacity of bombs that weigh 900 kilograms.

Fechino said that these are intelligent and smart bombs
Not just intelligent, not just smart, they're intelligent and smart!
... that can be redirected to their target, they can explode on the surface or under. This bomb, he said, was filled inside and out with depleted uranium, as one GBU-39 carries 75 kilograms of depleted uranium.

"If the 1000 bombs were used against the Philadelphia corridor that would be equivalent to 75 tons of uranium, which in turn is the equivalent of 16 nuclear bombs of the one bomb dropped over Hiroshima," he said. He added that such a spread of depleted uranium under the soil of the Philadelphia corridor carries with it the option of radiation that would result in different cancer diseases and could also lead to the birth of babies whose genes have been modified forever.
Conveniently forgetting that there is a way why it's called depleted uranium ...
Another weapon used, he said, was the Fuel-Air Explosive bomb derived from Napalm, an internationally-prohibited material. He said such a bomb "opens the gates of hell", noting that the heat that results from this bomb reaches 3,000 digress Celsius, and its speed of ignition is three times the speed of sound some 3,000 kilometers per hour, resulting in absorbing the oxygen in the surface of the explosion, which in turn leads to the suffocation of those who have not been killed by injury or flames.

This weapon, Fechino noted, destroys traces of any other weapon used.
And then they destroy any traces of themselves. Very tricksy, these juice weapons.

#9  This weapon, Fechino noted, destroys traces of any other weapon used.

So I guess the secret is to use this bad weapon after using all the other bad weapons so that dipshits like Jean-Francois won't be able to figure it out and will have to get real jobs.

#8  Israel needs to put a hit out on this guy. Just make sure it's non-deadly. Parylize him from the jaw up, so he'll stop making such absolutely assinine comments. Break his fingers all the way up to the elbow so he won't be able to write. Then send him back to France, where they'll look after him until he dies of old age. MAKE THE ARABS PAY FOR EVERY CENT OF HIS CARE AND RECUPERATION - preferably the Saudis, where the money can be siphoned off from the funds they use to undermine other nations. Oh, and make him sleep on a bed made from depleted uranium, just to really warp his already twisted little mind.

#7  Perhaps then they could air deliver some of those concrete obama heads, kinda like giant bowling balls. And since everybody knows there are gumballs on the inside they could use the shell to rebuild housing while having a sweet delicious treat.

And those explosions - fireballs from Elijah's mouth. He's back and he. is. pissed.

And 3 Hiroshimas equals 1 Tokyo, which could mean a new 300 mph train will sprout from the ground by the end of the year.

They should have known better since the corridor shares its name with an American city, where they play an American football team called the Eagles, of course the symbol of America - so its obvious a zionist juice ambush plot.

Oh, the ACHR must be one of those nouveau hustler agencies.

#6  With all the cousin marriages in Gaza how will they tell the difference?

The mutated/modified are the only ones that can move to 'smarter'?

#5  OK, so the Juice are evil, tricksy and armed with horrific weapons capable of almost unimaginable desctruction. Why are you messing with them?

#4  The stupidity, ignorance is mindblowing.(assuming he has a rest of modicum of honesty)

The GBU-39 exists precisely to not use a 900kg bomb that destroy an entire block.

Smarter than most Gazans anyway.

Smarter than certain French weapons "experts" too. I'm still laughing at his CV.
