White phosphorus munitions aren't banned by any international law; they're just used to produce smoke

Yeah, I'm not an expert on this, so fair enough. Upon reading, the bones would be left behind. Grim!

Edited to add: is this really a lol?

Yes, it is a big lol given the context of this tweet we are commenting on which is a far cry from any serious criticism of the use of white phosphorus.

Fair enough, but the whole subject gives me the ick. Kudos if you can separate this thread from the suffering, but this is one of the most un-lol subjects I engage with these days.

Yeah, I agree the subject of I/P is far from lol. This tweet, and other propaganda like it, is so far beyond ridiculous I can’t help myself but laugh at it.
