I'm so glad we have an empire

Because then we can build keen weapons like this that (probably) cause, er, gruesome collateral damage like this (keep scrolling).

It's just like the movies!

Pictures

Dahr Jamail has the pictures, equally disturbing, of the effect of white phosphorus in Fallujah. His web sit is "MidEast Dispatch". He was one of very few non imbedded reporters who covered Iraq and is currently seeking funds to return. Those photos are probably archived. The horrific burns, flesh destruction and long term effects if you happen to live are mind boggling. We simply must find a way to Peace

Disturb the comfortable and comfort the distrubed

This isn't white phophorus. It's DIME

Which is new, and looks worse. Yay!

The irony of DIME

The irony of dime is that it's supposed to keep the blast radius of the explosion down to prevent collateral damage. So much for "safer" weapons, huh?

But, we've always been at war with Eastasia...

Yes

and surprisingly made by the US of A. Not only kills people by ripping them apart but also the added bonus of killing them with cancer in the long term. A 'win win'!
