I thought British a-holes and neocon dim wits insisted depleted uranium shells weren't a danger. Ooops...Another lie but who cares since they want to fight to the last Ukrainian anyway.

Videos at link of what a real explosion looks is supposed to look like in a war as opposed the puny ones like the ones Ukraine launched on the Kerch Bridge that didn't even stop traffic flow for a day.

The West’s proxy war against Russia in the Ukraine

So devilishly clever of the West to trick Russia into invading Ukraine.

Leftists have always shrieked about deleted uranium.

One of their perennials.

The amount of radioactivity is probably what you would get from a cat scan.

The drama on this site these days is stunning. And the weak and simple are drawn into it.

Most folks could benefit from a lesson in how to do basic research.

I already posted this but since the same topic has came up, here it is again: (no idea how accurate the claim is)

“ Twitter has a post that claims the ammo dump had 2,200,000,000 worth of US ammo and supplies. Supposedly.

Gone in literally a second.

If my math is correct that is about 3 hours of the TOTAL US value of all produced goods.

Insanity.”

The problem with depleted (of U-235) uranium is that it is an alpha emitter. Alpha particles have a very short range but when ingested cause maximum cell damage.

Well, they’re not a danger to the Brits, at least not yet. As to Ukrainians, the Neocons (including the Brits) have clearly shown they’re disposable...so just another way to dispose of them.

“A clear spike in gamma radiation was detected in Khmelnitsky

Right, so the russians can detect gamma radiation spikes in western Ukraine? Okay

Same ol same ol I guess.

From a cheerleader for Ukraine and those supplying her, the Guardian:

One more.

From another cheerleader for Ukraine, the BBC:

Depleted uranium shells: Why are they used and are they harmful?
3/23/23

“Russia has warned the UK not to provide depleted uranium shells as ammunition for the tanks it is sending to Ukraine, saying they contain a “nuclear component”.

Depleted uranium makes weapons more powerful, but it is feared those weapons could be a threat to people in areas where they are used. ...

Depleted uranium makes weapons more powerful, but it is feared those weapons could be a threat to people in areas where they are used.

Well Ukraine was obviously planning on exploding everyone of those at the end of the day anyways. So- no difference.

Birth Defects and the Toxic Legacy of War in Iraq

"In Iraq, birth defects are a visible embodiment of the enduring toxic legacy of war for future generations and the environment. The Falluja Hospital’s birth defects Facebook page, where medical staff catalogue cases, reveals the striking diversity and quantity of congenital anomalies.[1] Babies in Falluja are born with hydrocephaly, cleft palates, tumors, elongated heads, overgrown limbs, short limbs and malformed ears, noses and spines."

Already posted here: https://freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/4153219/posts (search can be hard to use). So I will question it again, right here.

The Gateway Pundit → Robert F. Kennedy Jr claiming British confirmation → really Intel Slava Z, not British, claiming British confirmation. → using a copyrighted graph claimed to be from European Commission.

· Intel Slava Z making claims of what non-Russian entities have confirmed without sourcing any claims.
· No actual British confirmation by any named British source for themselves.
· Graph used is not produced or copyrighted by the European Commission (and misrepresents the actual data, I'll get to that).

Let's go to the European Commission Radioactivity Environmental Monitoring web page, then go to the advanced map to look at the trend for station UA33429 in Khmelnytskyi (Хмельни́цький).

The spike in Nanosieverts per hour (nSv/h) happened on March 11, linear or logarithmic scale, and dropped on the morning of March 13, the day of the attack, and rose again. The rise before the attack could not have been caused by the attack. Because natural variation in background radiation is natural variation. Comparing Gateway's graph to the EC site data, Gateway's graph does not match the highs and lows on the EC data. Gateway's graph doesn't show that, because Gateway copied it off Twitter and Telegram, where it was made up.

The UK announced delivering DU rounds to Ukraine. Khmelnytskyi had a large explosion, when Khmelnytskyi was already having a spike in background gamma radiation. The Russian online troll response, make up data to show the radiation spike occurred after the strike, attribute it to a real world source, say the explosion and radiation spike must be connect to the delivery of DU rounds, treating speculation as proof.

Start it out on Telegram, spread it to Twitter. Let a gullible audience in the west spread and accept it at face value. Next.

apparently one talking point on the munitions is that they are barely radioactive. this is actually true - their half life is similar to the estimated current age of the earth.

the issue is they are a toxic heavy metal that our bodies quite happily integrate (that lasts basically until the end of the universe), and that is the angle where problems come in.
