Has US used white phosphorus AGAIN?

After the U.S. Army was accused of using Willy Pete in the battle for Fallujah, Iraq, and, as an offensive weapon, not just a battlefield illumination, it strenuously denied it. Well, now, it faces the same allegation, only in Afghanistan this time.

Sure, Afghan doctors could be lying about “strange burns,” but why?

And, we should also remember, vis-à-vis the Army, the old “fool me once” vs. “fool me twice” issue, especially when the Army claims the Taliban could have used the WP.
