Isn't using white phosphorus an actual war crime? Why is it a killstreak in Modern Warfare?

it's just smoke bombs, bro

spicy smoke

This has already been discussed. OP is a faggot.

US don't believe in war crimes and told the ICC it would attack them if they ever took anyone prisoner

committing war crimes is fun.

Its ok if you're a Zog bot.

it's only a warcrime if used against/on civilian populations intentionally as an incendiary device

believe it or not, that list of warcrimes only applies to those that signed that one document whose name currently escapes me
those countries that did not sign it may use whatever they want
there is famously a first-world country which didn't, but i forget the name

>white phosphorus an actual war crime
No, most of the time.
>War crimes are mostly contextual
>There're no actual "war laws" written in some international laws book, nor an international police that enforces those
>Closest thing to a solid "law" in that regard is the Geneva conventions- are deliberately left vague in their wording, provide lots of flexibility by demanding certain context and are, by design, subject to political manipulation and discrimination
>Even then, for the most part, only countries that singed the conventions are, at least partly, bound by it
>Only universal agreement, again, not enforced on most countries, regards the deliberate targeting civilians without substantial military value
>Usually, the conventions only apply to states and not individuals/private bodies

For this matter, WP is advocated against because it's a chemical weapon that causes lots of "unnecessary suffering" and "hard to control as to who it targets". However, it is so only when in the form of a weapon, but there's no argument against it when used to generate concealing smoke or lighting an area. Provided solid enough context and political levy, it can be used against enemy targets in a tactical and limited manner.

Sounds like they must have great allies

I will always understand that these people have every right and reason to hate us

"We" don't hate you because because of photos like this, that girl probably didn't even do anything herself, but the sentiment of standing over a defeated enemy is relatable and well understood. It's an expression of power that is respected. What makes Muslims and Arabs as a whole to disrespect westerners, which is a much lower opinion than simple hate of an enemy, are self beating, wimpy posts like yours.

Do people really believe that said famous country is first world?

Israel can use it. Remember the holocaust.

no, actually.

It’s a war crime when used as an incendiary. It’s perfectly fine to use it for lighting.

Not for based ally who can do no harm it's not. Against a civilian population too, but no one remembers these things.

I find it hilarious that WP has been in hundreds of other games but literally no one made a complaint about it until they played their normie tier FPSes like CoD and Spec Ops The Line

Based senseposter absolutely BTFOs commies

what's the most fucked up thing humans have invented for war? nerve gas?

>war crime
is like saying murder crime

Punji traps. Boiling oil. All that medieval shit.

The US bombs and nukes civilians for breakfast.

.22lr ratshot

Is Warzone good?

Niggers.

none of those are fucked up
punji sticks are basically just komodo teeth

a weapon to surpass metal gear

Nah, we fucked up their countries a fuck ton and don't acknowledge or bother to make amends or you know, leave
The US military is full of violent, war hungry, war crime committing thugs no better than ISIS except the US soldiers return home accolades as heroes for electrocuting and pissing on a man or mocking dehydrated children by holding up water in front of them
I love America
I want America to improve
I don't want forgiveness because I don't want things I will never get

Any kind of damage over time weapon. When people realised they could do more than kill someone quickly, slowly or flashily.

It's not a deterrent, a show of force or "a means to an end" at that point. It's just a fuck you.

When people are dying 50 years after your conflict and 70 years after you're dead you have no real reason to be using such a thing other than because you just hate your current enemy

i remembered which country didn't sign it
wait for it
it was Israel

basically anything war and torture related in ancient Mesopotamia

>enemy
Odds are that guy was a civilian

If Black lives matter to you it's great.

It's a game in which you shoot people until they're down and then you execute them as they're helpless.
The entire thing is a warcrime simulator.

Whatever the fuck the banks do to profit from both sides

>>Even then, for the most part, only countries that singed the conventions are, at least partly, bound by it
Dead wrong

Israel is not legitimate, it doesnt count
