Keepin' it Surreal

The use of white phosphorous in Palestine is so calculated and insidious because not only does it cause horrific, usually fatal burns but its residue in the envionrment can cause illness, birth defects, and cancers for generations afterward. Look at the Twitter account Fallujah Birth Defects (graphic) which documents defects and abnormalities so rare most medical journals don't have them. White phosphorous was dropped in Fallujah in 2004 and it's still killing Iraqi babies. What do you think it's going to do to the survivors of the Palestinian genocide.

“When I travelled to Palestine in the summer of 2011, with a delegation of women of colour and indigenous feminists and activists, it was actually the first trip for all of us, but all of us had been involved for many years with Palestine solidarity work, we were all totally shocked by the egregious and visible nature of the oppression. The israeli military made no attempt to conceal or mitigate the violence they were inflicting on Palestinian people, gun-toting military men and women were everywhere. I was in South Africa before the downfall of apartheid, and I also had travelled to Northern Ireland at one of the most difficult periods, neither place was as bad as I witnessed in Occupied Palestine.”
