Depleted Uranium: A War Crime Within a War Crime ( Archived) (59)

Cancer has been exported to Iraq.

We are all complicit'

Please do not defend these actions.

Bush and Blair should be at the ICC.

Thewe.com is as left wing moonbat as it gets. Do some research before you make a fool of yourself.

You of course, by saying 'all,' mean the United nations Security Counsel who were the ones who authorized this action right?

I would say yes, the entire world is complicit however, blame may be placed directly upon Saddam Hussien who could have easily, and I mean easily - easier than me posting these words, could have easily have averted all war and strife simply by adhering to the ceasefire conditions and UNSC Resolutions 660 to 1441.



OK. Please do not post such tripe.

Now, as for DU, it is a horrible thing in my opinion having lost two close friends to cancer shortly after their tours in the former Yugoslavia. I suspect DU was the cause.

However, one must look at it this way - in war, you are attempting to win a military battle, not make friends with the enemy or look after his people but to destroy his military assets while allowing him the least opportunity to destroy yours. Hence, to have a weapon that is superior in range and power and armor that is superior in same puts you at an advantage.

So, given that everybody knows not to attack the US when it is carrying out the legal will of the UNSC, why on earth would any moron not adhere to those ceasefire terms and resolutions?

The mandate of the US and GB is not to save other nations peoples lives when those nations invade other countries. Their mission is to follow the UN and their law and to set things straight taking minimal casualties to their own people.

Saddam's mission should have been to safeguard the lives of his own people and, given the far worse weapons were on the table, one can argue that he got away lucky if DU was the worst of it.

So, as for the actions of Saddam .......


"Please do not defend these actions."

Consequences for public health of depleted uranium projectiles fired during NATO bombing of FR Yugoslavia in 1999. in Serbia are monitored continuously, say health experts, who point out that the number of patients with malignant disease on the rise,

It`s been estimated that 90,000 missiles were fired from depleted uranium

Thanks... For saving me the time...

NP. Here is the Reader's Digest condensed version of my post .....

"OK. Please do not post such tripe."
