6. "Napalm-like" is the new & improved napalm; MK77.
Improve the killing capabilities, change the name, and deny using "napalm".

It's the bushCartel Way.

7. I remember they changed something in the make up of it,
so it's not technically called napalm now, even though it still burns like napalm.

5. Since shortly after we steam rolled Fallujah!
Edited on Thu Jun-16-05 09:01 PM by acmejack
Edit OK before then. I remember that article now. I guess Fallujah stuck since they were claiming the US had used "banned" weapons. That was probably VX or something worse than napalm or cluster bombs.

13. Not technically napalm
since its not naptha whatever.

However it serves the same function, and most military members still regard it as napalm.

That being said I dont see napalm or whatever as being any worse than any other weapon of war.
