The casualties suffered in Iraq are horrific but whats even more distubing is the criminal Use of "Depleted" Uranium Munitions by both American and British forces. There use is truly criminal, not to mention the total disregard for the environment and of course the people in Iraq.

Checkout the first link for the effects of DU on humans. These picture are truly horrific and sickening. Every British & American politician and the people who support this war should be forced to see these pictures. Maybe next time they'll think twice about waging war and try and find a diplomactic way to bring about peace instead. As for DU Munitions they should be banned. Got to laugh when you hear Bush & Blair talk about combating pollution and globar warming. Yet they fully support the use of DU Munitions.....criminals!!!!!

Every one sights these studies but can anyone show me an enviromental evaluation of these countries before the US started using DU rounds in them? I haven't seen one yet. I worked in the UAE, KSA, and Oman and none of these countries are what I'd call concerned with the enviroment. I've visited some parts of the Warsaw pact and didn't see too much concern for the enviroment there either. What other man-made enviromental factors are contributors to the increase incidences of cancers and birth defects? I don't condone the US use of DU rounds against non- armored vehicles. But every one of these studies places all the blame in these countries on DU when it is clearly not to blame for all the problems these countries face. While the US use of DU rounds is clearly not helping the situation, the motives of the sites is clearly one sided and their conclusions are skewed.

CNN Article



AMAZING. Centurion debunks the story ... others debunk ... and yet there are still some who post that America is scum; it's Bush's fault; etc etc etc.

Hey folks .. the figure is flat out wrong. This is just to influence US elections and it's wrong. But hey .. I guess bashing the USA and/or Bush is more fun than understanding the situation and seeing the FACT that the story is bogus, eh?
