JOHN Kerry states assertively that Syria ‘crossed the global red line’ in its use of Sarin gas recently.
However, the international US community said nothing of the sort when Israel used white phosphorus in Lebanon (1982, 2006) and Gaza (2009). International law restricts the use of white phosphorus and I can safely state that the US is guilty of hypocrisy and double-standards again.
