Well, as i’ve shown, the evidence from the objecitve research facilities shows it is -NOT- an issue.

Debate IAEA, NATO, etc.

I don’t know what kind of propaganda some people read but DU has been proven to be quite hazardous a very long time ago. If DU really were harmless, do you seriously think it would need special storages?

Lets get real: time and time again DU has been found to not be an issue. DU in Kuwait? no issue. In Kosovo? no issue. Used in Chechnya by Russian forces? no issue. But why is there an issue in Iraq, and Iraq only? Simply enough: The environment has been badly scared, chemically, by enormous amounts of sarin and mustard gas exposure during Iraq’s brutal years with Saddam.

To Further prove DU isnt’ an issue, I post:
http://www.nato.int/du/ - To date, the scientific and medical research continues to disprove any link between Depleted Uranium and the reported negative health effects.

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/docs/b04151999_bt170-99.htm - RAND REVIEW INDICATES NO EVIDENCE OF HARMFUL HEALTH EFFECTS FROM DEPLETED URANIUM

http://www.iaea.org/NewsCenter/News/2003/13-571089.shtml - An IAEA investigation in Kuwait has found that depleted uranium (DU) from munitions used in the 1991 Gulf War does not pose a radiological hazard to the people of Kuwait.

http://www.vethealth.cio.med.va.gov/Pubs/1303.4hk 9-02-04.pdf - While no clinically significant adverse effects of DU have been evident to date in this group, some abnormalities have been detected on specialized testing.

And, a good overview: http://www.deploymentlink.osd.mil/du_library/balkans.shtml - None of the investigations and assessments has found widespread DU contamination, elevated uranium in the urine of veterans, or a significant health risk to deployed forces or to the public.

DU might become a major problem. Something has to explain all of the birth defects and infant cancers in southern Iraq.

be all you can in the us army including radioactive.

  Ten years from now the govt will acknowledge exposure and will start paying out ten years after that when 90% of those expose are dead.
