The vitriolic hatred and attacks emanating from the #WH is incompatible with loving our country.

Woke up with a weird thought. Dogfighting is illegal in the US yet we have a rabid old fool in the #WH protected by both sadists and rule-bound ninnies alike who’ve let the raving idiot into our homes to ravish our families. Capish? @schumer.senate.gov Also do you see why?

Nach dem Eklat im #WH am Freitag ist eines sicher: Nichts in #Europa wird sich wirklich ändern.
Wir hätten schon 2014, nach dem Angriff auf die Krim etwas machen sollen. Haben wir: Putin unsere Gasspeicher verkauft.
Dann kam Corona. Danach: Alles beim Alten. Dann hat 2022 Putin die Ukraine angegriffen. Alles beim Alten.
Wenn ich mir #Pispers anschaue, dann kann man seine Vorträge problemlos auf heute münzen.

White House 'concerned' by reports Israel military is using white phosphorus

The White House says it is “concerned” over new reports that Israel used US-supplied white phosphorus in a bombing attack in Lebanon that injured civilians and burned down houses.

John Kirby, strategic communications coordinator for the National Security Council, has just been briefing reporters aboard Air Force One, and was asked about the allegations.

Israel has previously denied it uses white phosphorus, which critics say put civilians at risk of serious and long-term injury, and is banned from use in civilian areas. On at least three occasions, 10, 11 and 16 October, Israel launched attacks in southern Lebanon, with Human Rights Watch posting links to video of “155mm white phosphorus artillery projectiles being used, apparently as smokescreens, marking or signaling”.

Kirby said the Biden administration would be raising the new report with Israel’s government:

We’ve seen the reports, we’re certainly concerned about that. We’ll be asking questions and trying to learn a little bit more.

It’s important to remind that white phosphorus does have a legitimate military utility in terms of illumination and reducing smoke to conceal movements.

And obviously any time that we provide items like white phosphorus to another military, it is with full expectation that it’ll be used for legitimate purposes and in keeping with the law of armed conflict.
