"Brussels, July 20, IRNA
Belgium-Lebanon
Eight bodies of victims killed by the use of chemical weapons have been found in Lebanon, a group of Belgian doctors of Lebanese-origin told a press conference in Brussels Thursday.

Professor Bachir Cham, a Belgian surgeon of Lebanese origin, addressed the press conference via mobile phone direct from Beirut.

He said all the eight bodies bought to the hospital in Sidon turned black but bore no burn marks and chemical substances were found on their bodies.

Cham said the chemical bombs were dropped by Israeli planes.

Dr. Mohammad Farran, an heart specialist, said they had sent letters to the United Nations and the European Union drawing their attention to the use of chemical weapons by Israel in Lebanon.

Michel Aoun, former Lebanese prime minister and current head of the 'Free Patriotic Movement' also spoke directly from Lebanon by mobile phone."

This was reported on July 20. Problem is, what is the chemical? Name it. This is groundless propaganda. The Israelis are using chemicals. Hell, if I were going to make an accusation of that nature, I would want to walk in to the meeting room and say, "The Israelis are using __________, __________ and _____________. Here's the proof." Instead we get Lebanese doctors making general statements. Whoop dee doo. With that and a buck one can ride the bus. I think it is BS.
