*** Don’t try to equate agent orange effects to the use of depleted uranium bullets in modern warfare. ***

What I have noticed is that studies done on DU by entities w/ a financial relationship to the Military/DOD as opposed to those entities which do not have relationships to Countries that have utilized DU militarily come up with different opinions on their toxicity, chromosomal damage, and effects on humans.

A study done by the RAND Corporation is an example.

In 2013, it seems WHO covered up findings under pressure from the US/UK.

As I pointed out, a study of birth defects in Iraq is irrelevant without the context of birth defects world wide.

Depleted uranium is just heavy lead. If you eat lead you will also have health problems.

Stop blaming the US for the worlds problems. The turd world makes their own problems just fine without our help.
