Talk:Incendiary bomb

Here is the text of Protocol III of the 1980 Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, or the ICRC's commentary (PDF, 35.2 kB). The claim from our article:
 * Banned by Protocol III of the 1980 Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, napalm proper is...

is clearly not true. Rather, all weapons which are primarily incendiary in nature are prohibited from being deliberately used on non-military targets, and restrictions are made when they might hit non-military targets accidentally.

This protocol contains no prohibition against using napalm, or any other incendiary weapon, against purely military targets. -- Securiger
