Jas B,
What happened to the Kurds in Iraq, under the Saddam Hussein regime?
CHEMICAL weapons.
YEAH,
WE went to Iraq for OIL, didn't we?
Yes, we've seen this photo from Vietnam, thousands of times.
AMERICAN Military also died from "STRAY" napalm drops, didn't they?
Cry somewhere else.
NOBODY likes war,
if you engage in war, YOU don't stop until the enemy is totally eliminated.

Napalm is an indiscriminate killer in a large area. White Phosphorus is targeted toward a small target but was banned by the Geneva Convention for use against enemy aggressors and can only be used to illuminate the target to kill with conventional weapons.

Look what area you're talking about. These people live for vengeance, for hundreds of years.
If Abdullah doesn't take severe actions he'll lose the support of his people.
The one thing this action has done is aroused the ire of the Muslims there, because its not an approved way to kill another Muslim. Oh the technicality of it all. But its true. They will begin to ban together in a way we haven't yet seen from them to eliminate the training and money that ISIS has been using to grab power. So far that's all be something they felt was more trained at foreigners than Muslims.
That's changed.

Probably be fair. But Jordan signed the United Nations Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, and while napalm is not completely prohibited, its use against civilians is, in title 3.

I somehow doubt that King Abdullah II of Jordan is going to take any advice from you.

Of course not. No HUMAN thinks he should murder millions of innocent people.

Only a sub-human monstrosity would propose genocide.

It's something you will NEVER understand, because you'd have to be a human being.
