This report like the other reports of chemical weapons will be gone by tomarrow. These stories are being squashed.

A navy official in Washington, Lieutenant-Commander Danny Hernandez, said: "We don't even have that in our arsenal." The US military says it last used napalm in 1993 and destroyed its last batch of the weapon in 2001.

Any idea why?

Very limited application & effectiveness against most target sets...and delivery profile is not conducive to delivery aircrew survivability in most threat environments.

Possibly because napalm was developed by DuPont and DuPont is French < /sarcasm>

"...soon to be squashed."

Yup. I'm getting to the point that I don't believe anything I hear.

I know there was a thread with the full AP story that this news was part of (the main part of the story was Powell's trip to Turkey), but I'm too lazy to find it. The original AP story is here, though.

Because the fact that little gyrenes learn songs like...

Napalm sticks to little children...
All the Children of the world...
Red, Yellow, Black or White,
They all scream when they ignite...
'cuz napalm sticks to all the children of the world...

Does not play well in todays media.
