Flares cannot be fired 'at' anything. Flares are aircraft's defense against anti-aircraft weapons and in advanced aircraft are designed to be triggered automatically upon detection of a threat. And flairs are designed to stay in suspended elevation for some time or they defeat their purpose.

Oh, and stop shelling me with irrelevant pictures and I am through giving you lectures. Do your own research.

Since you seem to not be getting it. I will rephrase.

But it's funny that you didn't even comment on the clear pictures showing "Israeli" white phosphorous shells falling on the UN school in question. I guess for you the "Israeli" terrorist government is more believable and trustworthy than your own eyes.
In sub sequence you respond:

I do not think you understand the meaning of 'shelling'.

What you see on the pictures are leftovers of shells designed to explode high up above to produce a lot of smoke and/or light while slowly descending.
Sure they look spectacular and down right scary but try as you might those are not weapons but rather oversized firecrackers and if anybody ever gets burned by those it is only by accident or carelessness.
The only picture worth noting was the one with blood on the floor but since it cannot be determined whose blood is that and why it is there I decided not to pay much attention to that picture too. BTW, burns do not bleed.
BUT when i search for White Phosphorus i get:

So are these not images of White Phosphorous being fired? If not, please explain why i get these images when i search for White Phosphorus.

Clear enough? Thanks.

He's right guys. The Israelis didn't mean to kill people INSIDE the UN building. Only outside on the playgrounds and whatnot.

Lest we forget that the Israelis blatantly lied about shelling the compound to begin with, then backtracked and said an "errant" shell hit it.

When your only way to survive is through propaganda, you know your policies are more or less doomed to fail.

Source: UN backtracks on claim that deadly IDF strike hit Gaza school - Haaretz - Israel News

The United Nations has reversed its stance on one of the most contentious and bloody incidents of the recent Israel Defense Forces operation in Gaza, saying that an IDF mortar strike that killed 43 people on January 6 did not hit one of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency schools after all.

It seems that the UN has been under pressure to put the record straight after doubts arose that the school had actually been targeted. Maxwell Gaylord, the UN humanitarian coordinator in Jerusalem, said Monday that the IDF mortar shells fell in the street near the compound, and not on the compound itself.

Nothing new. Probably Hamas was looking\wishing for more deaths of Palestinian civilians, in dramatic ways, to pressure Israel, and eventually claim victory on their bodies.

Oh those tricky Hamas. If only "Israel" was as smart as you and realized their plan all along. Maybe they wouldn't have killed so many Palestinians.

When in contact with white posphorous your skin burn to the bone becuase it is extremely reactive with Oxygen. And as we all know, the human body is full of it. So please do not compare a firecracker to a lethal chemical weapon. Thanks.

While it is true this is not what is being argued. You can get hurt by firecracker too but still firecracker is not designed to kill. The same with munitions in question. So, please do not confuse it with lethal chemical weapons. Thanks.

Pro-Israeli, what's your point? That the Palestinians lied about 50 civilian deaths out of the hundeds that were actually killed? That the brave Israeli soldiers never mean any harm to Palestinian civilians? That we are all brainwashed into believing that children and civilians were brutally killed by the Israeli army? Jusk what the freaking hell is your point?

White Phosphorous is designed to illuminate areas but not to kill?
