i believe its used for some kind of illumination. but i dont know how you'd say its anything but a chemical weapon when dropped onto people.

yeah, its used as a smoke screen, illegal to use on civilian areas

I told you guys: Don't mess with Israel. You have no idea what its capable of. Israel isn't playing by the rules b/c it's fighting a very real war with the Iranian govnerment. The Iranians NEVER play by the rules.
It remains to be seen what Israel will ultimately decide to do with Iran. Anyone who thinks Iran stands any sort of chance of destroying Israel will be proved wrong. So you guys can cry all you want about innocent lives lost, but as long as you continue to support Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, most of the Western world won't do much aside from the occasional semi-condemnation of Israeli "aggression".

The white phosphorus is not being dropped on civilian areas, but on the outskirts of the strip.

actually, the last definition you quoted used this qualifier: "Punishable Acts: The following are genocidal acts when committed as part of a policy to destroy a group’s existence:"

is there such a policy in this instance?

Israel is a joke. Iran has newest Russian weapon systems, it has nothing to be afraid of.

fixed.

BTW, you actually live in Amsterdam??? Isnt there a fatwa on your head in Iran just for living in such a liberal/free/supercool city?

Tehran is a joke when put in comparison with Amsterdam, one of the world's great cities.

Actually, not to completely distort the subject of this thread, but Tehran has a huge Western counterculture and is easily one of the more liberal and intellectual cities in the Middle East. Not that the White House would ever acknowledge that.

I actually live in Russia, in the city you never heard of because of lack in your education.

But anyway, coming back to the topic, Iran has this babes:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-300_(missile)

what Israel has? a bunch of female soldiers? That's just a joke.

ps.
As far as I'm aware (and you cannot proof it) S-300 is far far beyond any Western anti-missile system nowadays.



And this babe can hit Israeli asses so bad, that they won't want to come back.

I'll agree on the intellectual aspect of Tehran. That's genrally been true for Iran as a whole for generations.
As for liberal, define liberal. Yeah, it might be more liberal when compared to backwards-ass Yemen or Sudan.
Tehran was a lot more liberal up until the 70s.

It's definitely not as liberal when compared to cities like Casablanca and Rabat in Morocco, Manama in Bahrain, Amman in Jordan, Beirut in Lebanon, or Tunis in Tunisia. These are some of the more liberal cities in the Arab world.
Tehran is also not as liberal Dubai in the UAE, Kuwait City in Kuwait, Cairo in Egypt, Doha in Quatar, etc.

If you want liberal cities go to Istanbul and the Turkish Riviera.
Of course the most liberal and intellectual city in the Middle East is Tel Aviv...
