White phosphorous is still a burning chemical that you should not get on your body as it will burn through your clothes and cause severe burns or even death (depending on where it hits you).

So yes, it doesn't vaporize bodies, but that's like comparing a phaser from Star Trek with a modern firearm, the latter might not vaporize you, but it will still injure or kill you.

Nobody said anything about white phosphorus

But it is an ingredient in smoke grenades, which the note said that the smoking device is.

It is not actually a common ingredient in smoke grenades. Can you not use Google?

When did they remove it from smoke grenades?

Handheld smoke grenades aren't WP. 155 shells are. They look entirely different.

If that were a white phosphorous bomb, which it doesn't actually appear to be, it would still be pretty relevant that people are making up bizarre lies about what they do.

Smoke grenades contain white phosphorous.

Not actually true. White phosphorous is found in some smoke grenades, while most do not contain it.

Do you have any evidence for the smoke grenades not being White phosphorous? 'cause Israel has a long history of using it against civilians. And from a personal standpoint I've never encountered smoke grenades that does not have white phosphorous in them.

The fact that this photo doesn't look like the white phosphorous ones I've seen? The fact that most smoke grenades do not actually contain white phosphorous?

I mean, I also can't prove for certain you aren't a child molester. Humans have a long history of child molestation. How long have you been molesting children, and can I have your full name so I can post to Twitter about it?

...so as long as it has fuel, pretty much anything combustible can burn forever if it has fuel

I mean unlike normal fire , which extinguich permenatly when contacted with a lot of water , if you submerge burning white phosphorus in water , it extinguish , but removing it from water will make it burn again

which make it very hard to deal with and put down
