This video Part II, Operation Cast Lead, Israeli White Phosphorous Attack on the UNRWA School at Beit Lahia, Gaza, Palestine.01-17-09, or more aptly put, the Israeli massacre of the Palestinian people, by the Israeli armed forces from December 27, 2009 to January 18, 2010, shows only a minuscule portion of the unprovoked and totally unnecessary Barbarous Israeli attack using White Phosphorous on unarmed, noncombatant civilians, primarily women, children and some old men in a United Nations safe zone agreed to by the Israeli General command. I thoroughly researched the available many documents, pictures, slideshows and videos on the Israeli attack on Gaza, Palestine, named Operation Cast Lead. It was a very time consuming endeavour to say the least It took hundreds of hours until the final PowerPoint Presentation of Parts I and II was completed. One thing glaringly stood out like a sore thumb. The truth about Operation Cast Lead was missing from the information presented by the Israelis and their supporters including the Administration and especially most members of Congress and Senate of the United States of America. Since You Tube imposes a 10 minute limit for each presentation, I had to create two separate videos of the Israeli Attack on the Gaza Strip, Palestine from December 27, 2008 to January 18, 2009. The first video on YouTube is entitled Part I, Operation Cast Lead, Israeli Attack on Gaza 12-27-08 to 01-18-09. This is the second video entitled Part II, Operation Cast Lead, Israeli White Phosphorous Attack on the UNRWA School at Beit Lahia, Gaza, Palestine.01-17-09 It is impossible to show and tell about all that happened before, during and after Operation Cast Lead in the 10 minutes that You Tube allows. I hoped to shed some light and present the truth within that imposed time frame. The UNRWA school in Beit Lahia was used by unarmed non-combatant Palestinian families as a safe haven from constant Israeli aerial, naval and ground bombardment. UNRWA had given the Israeli Military Command the GPS coordinates for their headquarters, schools, warehouses and food depots to safeguard them from being bombarded as Safe neutral zones devoid of armed Palestinian fighting men. The Israeli Military Command agreed. The Israelis then went ahead and bombarded them anyway. The Israelis have no honour and no integrity . White Phosphorus is a toxic chemical agent that burns on contact with air and creates thick white smokes in order to hide troop movements. However phosphorus shells are largely indiscriminate scattering large numbers of fragments over a large area, which can cause severe damage to both human tissue and property. THE GENEVA TREATY OF 1980 STIPULATES THAT WHITE PHOSPHORUS CANNOT NOT BE USED AS A WEAPON OF WAR IN CIVILIAN AREAS. However there is no blanket ban under international law on its use as a smokescreen or for illumination. However, Charles Heyman, a military expert and former major in the British Army, said: If white phosphorus was deliberately fired at a crowd of people someone would end up in The Hague for having committed war crimes . White phosphorus is also a terror weapon. The descending blobs of phosphorus will continue to burn when in contact with skin. As usual the Israeli military on January 4, 2009 denied using phosphorus, but refused to say what had been deployed. Israel uses munitions that are allowed for under international law the spokesman added. Israel LIED again. On January 21, 2009 Israel admitted after mounting international pressure that its troops used white phosphorus shells in contravention of international law, during its three-week offensive in the Gaza Strip One and one half million Palestinian refugees are living in the Gaza Strip since 1948, if one can call that living. They are penned in, within the worlds largest open air Israeli controlled concentration-camp-prison completely sealed off from the outside world by the Israeli military. And the World has done nothing positive nor productive to solve this travesty and human tragedy for over 62 years. Israel, supported by the United States continues to defy the United Nations and the rest of the world The Israeli Military machine, supported and supplied by the United States; by air, ground and naval attacks on civilians, deliberately murdered mostly 1350 ++ civilian men women, children and babies, 460 of whom were children. The Israeli Military machine deliberately wounded, injured and maimed 5450++ mostly civilians, men, women, children and babies. 23 DAYS THAT SHALL FOR EVER LIVE IN INFAMY.
