I don’t know either, I can’t find anything in print on it with a quick search.
It says the video isn’t available any longer. If you have the name of it, I’ll do a search for it.

Analysis / Bias
Foreign Policy Journal republishes articles, essays, viewpoints written by activists and academics from a progressive standpoint, such as the articles of Professor Richard A. Falk, American professor emeritus of international law at Princeton University, “Renaming the 1948 War: Partition, Dispossession, and Fragmentation.”
In review, their articles cover various topics that range from the environment, “Can Architecture Fix Our Health, Minds, Societies, Environment?“ to TV documentary critics, “PBS’s Vietnam Acknowledges Nixon’s Treason.” When it comes to economic matters they are not highly critical of the Trump Administration, but instead are critical of the overall system as evidenced by this quote from the article “in the Great Western Democracies, economic policy only serves the hyper-rich and the hyper-powerful. Citizens simply do not count. They are as nothing.“ Foreign Policy Journal also publishes conspiracy theories and pseudoscience such as anti-vaxx propaganda and 9-11 conspiracies.
Editorially, Foreign Policy Journal is progressive on international geopolitics, diplomacy, and military matters. When it comes to news analysis they use loaded language both in their headlines and the body of the article such as “The Myth of the U.N. Creation of Israel.” However, they utilize credible sources such as un.org , avalon.law.yale.edu and Al Jazeera.
Overall, when covering political issues Foreign Policy Journal has a far left bias in story selection and we rate them factually Mixed due to promotion of conspiracy theories. (M. Huitsing 3/30/2018) Updated (10/12/2018)

Yeah, I was going back quite a bit, the term “shell shock” was poorly understood, during World War I for example. People breaking down after weeks on the line, were charged with malingering and things like that.
Nowadays it is called “PTSD” or somesuch, and apparently applies to anyone anywhere, for any situation, including Burger King getting the food order wrong.
New technologies in war can be devastating. No doubt. Imagine being a soldier and watching that happen to a tank ? They never saw it coming.
My concern is using ‘unconventional weapons’ which are known to cause birth defects to parties not even fighting in a war. While (from what I’ve read so far) the US, Russia, nor Ukraine have ever signed the agreement to not use them - it still does not make them right. I used to expect better from our country. Our military leaders know they are being used, yet do not appear to have stopped it. Saying I’m Disappointed is such a useless sounding description. How I feel has no bearing. However, there needs to be an end to it.
I will argue that you believe what you read that is enemy propaganda.
The uranium weapons are not going to cause birth defects except in the minds of those that fear them or lawyers seeking to make a $
