It's been around since WW I when it was a horror in the trenches.
It causes a kind of fire you can't put out with a fire extinguisher
and if it gets on human flesh, it will burn straight down the the
bone - and keep burning.
Now the Israeli military is dropping it from time to time on Gaza neighborhoods.
Of course, that's just a rumor...unless you see the video.
Who are you going to believe?
The Israeli war party PR department or your own eyes?

P.S. Update:
Posted January 15, 2009
The headquarters of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in the Gaza Strip was attacked today by Israeli artillery, sparking a fire which continues to burn. The compound was reportedly housing 700 civilian refugees and
storehouses of increasingly scarce food aid at the time of the attack.
But perhaps even more pressing is the nature of the attack, which UNRWA spokesman Chris Gunness said was hit with shells containing the incendiary agent white phosphorus. "What more stark symbolism do you need?" asked the spokesman. "You can't put out white phosphorus with traditional methods such as fire extinguishers. You need sand. We don't have sand."
Though Gunness says Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak termed the attack "a grave mistake," Prime Minister Ehud Olmert defended the attack, saying it made him sad but it was legitimate self defense. (some Israelis have called Olmert insane--perhaps they should be heard?)
