The Casper Star-Tribune: Printable Version (1168 words) |
 | Incendiaries are considered particularly inhumane weapons under international treaty, and a 1980 United Nations convention limits their use. |
| Another question is whether the United States is obliged to follow the rules on incendiary weapons in the convention, since the U.S. Senate has failed to ratify that specific protocol. |
| That protocol bans incendiary weapons use against civilian targets or against military objects not clearly separated from "concentrations" of civilians. |
