73. US Lied To Britain Over Use Of Napalm In Iraq.
I guess this is what the big clamp on news coverage on Fallujah last year was all about. Does anyone see more and more Vietnam parallels arising lately?

http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/politics/story.jsp?story=647397

" American officials lied to British ministers over the use of "internationally reviled" napalm-type firebombs in Iraq.

Yesterday's disclosure led to calls by MPs for a full statement to the Commons and opened ministers to allegations that they held back the facts until after the general election."


I guessed I missed it but I don't remember the State Department admitting they were using M77's. Maybe I was paying too much attention
to the MSM.
