The pentagon issued a report on the horrors of Saddam which listed among his war crimes the fact that Iraqui forces used Willie Pete on Iranian forces. WP was considered a chemical weapon in the report when used against enemy troops. The US use of WP as an incindiary against troops per se is not a war crime by Geneva standards. Using WP as an incindiary on a civilian center such as Faluja is.
