July 22/23, 2006 -- U.S. military intelligence sources have told WMR
that the artillery shell shown below being used by an Israel Defense
Force member in Lebanon, is a type of dual and multi-use weapon the
neocons falsely accused Saddam Hussein of possessing. Although the
canister artillery shell is marketed as an anti-land mine fuel-air bomb,
its payload can also include the chemicals used in thermobaric bombs,
white phosphorous weapons, and chemical weapons. Thermobaric bombs
contain polymer-bonded explosives or solid fuel-air explosives in their
payloads. Thermobarics use a fuse munition unit (FMU) such as that seen
on the nose of the Israeli artillery shell. The shell penetrates
buildings, underground shelters, or tunnels, creating such a blast
pressure that all the oxygen is sucked out from the spaces and the lungs
of anyone who happens to be in proximity. Israel's use of such "vacuum"
weapons has been reported from across Lebanon.

The artillery shell below, with its FMU penetrator, can also be used to
deliver chemical weapons, the use of which is also being reported from
southern Lebanon. In addition, it can deliver white phosphorous, a
substance that literally melts through skin but leaves clothing
relatively intact. In Fallujah and elsewhere in Iraq, U.S. forces have
used white phosphorous on civilians, leaving grotesque corpses as a
psychological warfare reminder to the civilian population to surrender
or evacuate an area. The photo from Sidon of a burnt and badly
disfigured young Lebanese girl is a telltale sign of white phosphorous
use by the Israelis. Similar photos from Fallujah were shown to this
editor by a top investigative reporter for Italy's RAI television network.

U.S. military intelligence experts believe the ease at which the Israeli
soldier is handling the artillery shell is an indication that the
payload contains light-weight gas and not a fuel-air mixture or
thermobaric bomb components. WMR continues to receive reports from
Lebanon of depleted uranium shells being used by the Israelis. The New
York Times today is reporting that the U.S. is stepping up its delivery
of "precision-guided" munitions to Israel (see article below on Bush
administration pre-planning for the Israeli invasions of Lebanon and Gaza).
