Furthermore, the fact that you have not been put in a position where you are fighting, where you are not dealing with an enemy intent on destroying
both you and your stand, way of life, your goal or mission, causes me to not be concerned with your position on this particualr topic.
As far as DU, that pseudo-science has been discredited, and if you had any training on radiation sickness you'd know that your friend is not
suffering from it. There are a myriad of afflictions that would cause this, and to bring up DU is nothing more than a political positioning that is
despicable.
I also understand the rules of authentication in evidence (Documentary evidence can be authticated by one who sees it executed or hears it
acknowledged---which Flinx and Dreamstone have done) so don't tell me my business.
Furthermore, I wouldn't be in a position to be fighting in Iraq b/c I'm not trying to suffer from DU poisoning. I want kids---not mutants. I don't
want premature death.
And people listen to this: "the fact that you have not been put in a position where you are fighting, where you are not dealing with an enemy intent
on destroying both you and your stand, way of life,"
WHAT THE HELL DOES AN IRAQI INVASION HAVE TO DO WITH THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE? WHEN WAS IRAQ A THREAT TO THE UNITED STATES? OH, LIKE NEVER!
Look at what he says,"As far as DU, that pseudo-science has been discredited..."
SO, I guess there's no such thing as Gulf War Syndrome? That's all a crazy fantasy made up by Gulf War vets.
Ya know, for someone who cares so much about the military and our troops, you leave a lot to be desired.
