Several things are disturbing here.

On the one hand, the apparently false claims, that WP is used on civilian targets.

On the other hand, do I understand correctly that WP was, indeed, used as an incendiary weapon against military targets? Whether the U.S. signed an agreement to this extent or not, it seems a cruel and inappropriate thing to do.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
