Introducing our latest weapon: Zionist Death Chems.TM
Israel was accused on Wednesday by a Palestinian minister of using illegal chemical weapons in the Palestinian territories.
“Analyses carried out in laboratories outside Palestine have shown that Israel has had recourse to banned chemical weapons and depleted uranium” in the territories, environment minister Yussef Abu Sofia said.
He further accused Israel of having “transported major quantities of dangerous chemical products into the interior of the Palestinian territories thereby seriously polluting the water table”.
I would be very interested in seeing these laboratory analyses. Very interested.
But no doubt Mr Abu Sofia knows full well there are no analyses to verify his claims. He just also happens to know that once he makes these allegations, they are accepted as fact.
Case in point is the very article in question. In the Related Article link on the bottom right is a link to an article entitled Israeli bombing ‘radioactive’, which details previous allegations made against Israel vis-a-vis the use of uranium-based munitions.

These allegations were proven false, yet there is no link to the report exonerating Israel from any wrongdoing. The net effect is additive, and people believe the rubbish.
Let the truth be told: The only pollutants in this story are the palestinian official’s lies clouding the truth.
