    I admit, first time I read that headline I was like, “WHAT? Israel adding Asbestos to their bombs now? How sinister. What’s next - radon?” It took a minute to get up to speed.

      Me too - wouldn’t put it past them, Israel is disgusting enough to sink to that level.

      Yeah the problem is the building material used. The headline had me confused as fuck too.

        Well, my second thought was, “that’s pretty short-sighted if you’re gonna Zionist all over the destroyed area… why would you introduce a carcinogen when…” and by then it clicked. The zionists don’t want carcinogens either, but explosively spreading existing asbestos is the price they’re willing to pay for genocide.
